18 and older, male only, with Prostate Cancer. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.

Sponsor's own description

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer death in men. The purpose of this research study is to compare prostate cancers treated with hormone therapy versus prostate cancers treated with hormone therapy plus drugs that directly target cancer cells.
