Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm II (aspirin, rintatolimod, surgery)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients receive aspirin PO BID on days -7 to 7 and rintatolimod IV over 2 hours on days 1-3,and 8-10 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then undergo radical prostatectomy on or between day 17-24.
Group II: Arm I (aspirin, interferon alpha, rintatolimod, surgery)Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients receive aspirin PO BID on days -7 to 7. Patients also receive recombinant interferon alfa-2b IV over 20 minutes and rintatolimod IV over 2 hours on days 1-3 and 8-10 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then undergo radical prostatectomy on or between day 17-24..
Group III: Arm III (radical prostatectomy)Active Control1 Intervention
Patients undergo radical prostatectomy about 4 weeks after enrollment.
