Summary
This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving pazopanib with or without bicalutamide works in treating patients with prostate cancer that did not respond to hormone therapy. Pazopanib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Giving pazopanib hydrochloride together with bicalutamide may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer.
