Official Title: Randomized Phase II Trial of Short-Course Androgen Deprivation Therapy +/- Bevacizumab for PSA Recurrence of Prostate Cancer After Definitive Local Therapy
Study ID: NCT00776594
Brief Summary: The purpose of this research study is to assess the efficacy of antiangiogenic therapy (bevacizumab) and androgen deprivation versus androgen deprivation alone at the time of minimal systemic disease (based on rising PSA without metastases).
Detailed Description: * Participants will be randomized into one of two study groups. The first group will receive Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) plus bevacizumab. The second group will receive ADT alone. * For the Androgen Deprivation therapy either (treating physician discretion)leuprolide or goserelin acetate (given as injections) every 3 months for a total of 6 months. Bicalutamide will also be taken orally daily for a total of 6 months. * Bevacizumab will be given intravenously every three weeks for a total of 8 infusions over 6 months. * Participants will be evaluated every 7-9 weeks with vitals, physical exam, PS, laboratories including PSA and testosterone.
