This phase II trial is studying how well giving androgen deprivation therapy together with vorinostat followed by radical prostatectomy works in treating patients with localized prostate cancer. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide, goserelin, and leuprolide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving androgen deprivation therapy and vorinostat before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed

- Pathologic complete response at the time of surgery [ Time Frame: At 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]A Simon 2-stage optimal design that differentiates between response probabilities of 0.05 and 0.20 will be used in the analysis of the pathological complete response at the time of surgery (Type I error 10% and power 90%).
- Pre- and post-treatment levels of PSA, testosterone, DHT, DHEA, and DHEA-S in blood and radical prostatectomy specimens [ Time Frame: At baseline, days 1 and 15 of course 1, then days 1 of each 4-week course, and up to 1 year after surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Pre- and post-treatment levels of testosterone, androstenedione, androstenediol, DHT, DHEA, and DHEA-S in prostate tissue [ Time Frame: At baseline (tumor biopsy) and post-treatment radical prostatectomy tissue ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Gene and protein expression analysis including AR target genes, PSA and TMPRSS2 (transmembrane protease, serine 2) [ Time Frame: At baseline (tumor biopsy) and post-treatment radical prostatectomy tissue ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Estimates and 95% confidence intervals for the proportion of patients with nondetectable levels of PSA and TMPRSS2 will be computed.
- Safety and tolerability of androgen depletion therapy in combination with vorinostat (SAHA) as assessed by physical examinations, adverse events, and laboratory assessments [ Time Frame: At days 1 and 15 of courses 1 and 2, prior to surgery, and up to 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Adverse events will be monitored at each scheduled visit and throughout the study. Toxicity will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0.

Experimental: Treatment (Antihormone therapy and enzyme inhibitor therapy)
Patients receive bicalutamide PO once daily for 1 month and leuprolide acetate IM or goserelin SC once a month until surgery. Patients also receive SAHA PO once daily beginning on the first day of androgen depletion therapy and continuing for up to 8 weeks or until the day of surgery. Patients then undergo an open or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Patients with positive surgical margins undergo immediate adjuvant external beam radiotherapy to the prostatic fossa, based on the judgment of the treating physician.

Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the rate of pathologic complete response in patients with localized prostate cancer treated with androgen depletion therapy (ADT) and vorinostat (SAHA) before radical prostatectomy.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine and evaluate pre- and post-treatment levels of PSA, testosterone, DHT, DHEA, and DHEA-S in blood.
II. Determine and evaluate pre- and post-treatment levels of testosterone, androstenedione, androstenediol, DHT, DHEA, and DHEA-S in prostate tissue.
III. Determine and evaluate gene and protein expression analysis including AR target genes, PSA and TMPRSS2 (transmembrane protease, serine 2), in pre-treatment biopsy and post-treatment radical prostatectomy specimens.
IV. Perform exploratory gene microarray analysis. V. Determine and evaluate the safety and tolerability of ADT in combination with vorinostat as assessed by physical examinations, adverse events, and laboratory assessments.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive bicalutamide orally (PO) once daily for 1 month and leuprolide acetate intramuscularly (IM) or goserelin subcutaneously (SC) once a month until surgery. Patients also receive vorinostat (SAHA) PO once daily beginning on the first day of androgen depletion therapy and continuing for up to 8 weeks or until the day of surgery. Patients then undergo an open or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Patients with positive surgical margins undergo immediate adjuvant external beam radiotherapy to the prostatic fossa, based on the judgment of the treating physician.
Patients undergo tissue sample collection at baseline and during surgery for laboratory correlative studies. Biomarker expression analysis is performed on the samples by quantitative real time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for HDAC-regulated target genes, AR and AR-regulated genes, PSA and TMPRSS2. If adequate material is available, fresh frozen tissue is analyzed by microarray analysis for predictors of response and resistance to therapy. Hormonal levels are also measured in these tissue samples. Patients also undergo blood sample collection periodically to measure hormone and PSA levels.
After completion of study therapy, patients are followed every 3 months for up to 1 year.
