Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Signed informed consent
  • A histologically confirmed diagnosis of carcinoma of the prostate
  • Therapy with hormonal treatments (medical or surgical castration)
  • Patients must have objective evidence of metastatic disease to bone.
  • Adequate liver function - serum total bilirubin concentration less than 1.5 x upper limit of normal value
  • ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2

You may not qualify if:

  • Bone pain which requires strong narcotic therapy with centrally acting analgesic agents.
  • More than 3 bisphosphonate applications in patients history.
  • Previous Radiation therapy to bone (including therapeutic radioisotopes such as strontium 89) within 3 months prior to Visit 2.
  • Abnormal renal function as evidenced by
  • A calculated creatinine clearance \< 30 ml/minute. Creatinine clearance (CrCl) is calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula:
  • CrCl= \[140-age (years)\] x weight (kg) {x 0.85 for female patients} \[72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL)\]
  • Corrected (adjusted for serum albumin) serum calcium concentration \< 8.0 mg/dl (2.00 mmol/L) or ≥ 12.0 mg/dl (3.00 mmol/L)
  • Life expectancy \< 6 months
  • Patients with evidence in the six months prior to randomization of severe cardiovascular disease (defined as uncontrolled congestive heart failure), hypertension refractory to treatment, or symptomatic coronary artery disease uncontrolled by treatment
  • Use of other investigational drugs (drugs not marketed for any indication) within 30 days prior to the date of randomization
  • Current active dental problems including infection of the teeth or jawbone (maxilla or mandibular); dental or fixture trauma, or a current or prior diagnosis of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), of exposed bone in the mouth, or of slow healing after dental procedures.
  • Recent (within 6 weeks) or planned dental or jaw surgery (e.g. extraction, implants)
