Purpose
The purpose of this research study is to find out if a new anti-cancer drug, dasatinib (Sprycel®), previously approved for treatment of some forms of leukemia, will be safe and helpful in treating patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer.
This is a research study because the study drug, dasatinib (Sprycel®), has not been evaluated for safety or effectiveness in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer. The drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of some forms of leukemia; thus, dasatinib (Sprycel®) is not an investigational drug. It has been given safely to hundreds of patients already. However its safety and usefulness in this study population (prostate cancer) is unknown.
Subjects who agree to participate will take 150mg (3 pills) of dasatinib (Sprycel®) daily by mouth for as long as the drug benefits them. During this time, the subject will periodically return to the office for blood/urine tests, X-rays, imaging scans, and/or to complete questionnaires.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Patient has prostate cancer that is getting worse after treatment with hormone-blocking therapies such as orchiectomy (removal of a testicle), prostate cancer treatment pills (Casodex, Eulexin, Nilandrone, bicalutamide, flutamide, nilutamide), or hormone shots (Lupron, Eligard, leuprolide, Zoladex, gosserelin)
- 18 years of age or older
- At least one dose/cycle of chemotherapy drugs (docetaxel, Taxotere, estramustine, Emcyt, mitoxantrone, Novantrone, etc.)
- Normal kidney and liver function, and normal blood counts
- Able to swallow pills
- Use a valid form of birth control while taking the study drug and for at least 4 weeks afterwards
Exclusion Criteria:
- Chemotherapy in the last 4 weeks
- Radiation therapy in the past six weeks
- Quadramet (samarium 153) therapy (a drug used to relieve bone pain) in the past two months, or Metastron (strontium-89), another drug used to relieve bone pain, ever
- Treatment with any tyrosine kinase inhibitor (a type of therapy that controls cancerous cell growth). Investigational chemotherapy drugs must have been taken at least six weeks ago, and investigational vaccines at least six months ago.
- Any other cancer, other than prostate cancer, that required chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or radiation therapy in the past five years
- Uncontrolled heart failure, heart attack, or chest pains within the previous six months
- History of unstable heart rhythms
- Medicines known to cause heart rhythm disturbances, including quinidine, procainamide, disopyramide, amiodarone, sotalol, ibutilide, dofetilide, erythromycin, clarithromycin, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, mesoridazine, thioridazine, pimozide, cisapride, bepridil, droperidol, methadone, arsenic, chloroquine, domperidone, halofantrine, levomethadyl, pentamidine, sparfloxacin, and lidoflazine. There are restrictions or limitations to use of other medicines as well, such as anticoagulants (drugs that stop blood from clotting), intravenous bisphosphonates (bone-hardening medicines), and anti-acid agents such as omeprazole, lansoprazole, cimetidine, ranitidine, and other H2 blockers/proton pump inhibitors. Patients may not take St. John's Wort while on study.
- History of abnormal bleeding, such as hemophilia, von Willebrand's disease, or are using full-dose anticoagulants (substances that stop the blood from clotting). Patients may not have had any stomach or intestinal bleeding in the past three months.
- Untreated brain cancer, or untreated prostate cancer causing spinal cord compression
- May not drink Grapefruit Juice during this study
