Summary

This study looks at whether surgically removing the prostate, along with hormone therapy and possibly chemotherapy, can help men whose prostate cancer has already spread. About 190 men with newly diagnosed stage IV prostate cancer will be randomly assigned to get either standard drug therapy alone or standard drug therapy plus surgery. The goal is to see if adding surgery delays cancer progression and improves quality of life.
