NCT00331344

Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of ixabepilone and mitoxantrone hydrochloride when given together with prednisone and to see how well they work in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that did not respond to hormone therapy and chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, mitoxantrone hydrochloride, and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Proportion Responding to Treatment With of the Combination of Ixabepilone and Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride With Prednisone in Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer Patients Who Have Had Prior Taxane Chemotherapy Based Upon a PSA Decline of > 50% (Phase II)

    Descriptive statistics will be calculated to characterize the disease and treatment factors including the proportion responding with a 95% confidence interval. If accrual is completed and more than 15 of 58 patients show \> 50% Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) declines after 3 courses, then the null hypothesis of a 20% response proportion will be rejected. PSA declines for individual patients will be plotted in the form of a waterfall diagram of maximal PSA declines. 58 patients were enrolled for phase II, two were ineligible so 56 patients were analyzed.

    Every 3 courses until cancer progression/excessive toxicity or death

  • Safety of the Combination of Ixabepilone, Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride, and Prednisone in Patients With Hormone-refractory Metastatic Prostate Cancer That Progressed During or After Taxane-based Chemotherapy (Phase I)

    This study will utilize the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0 for adverse event monitoring and reporting. The cumulative grade 3 or higher adverse events for all dose levels are noted below and in the table of adverse events.

    Every 21 days until cancer progression/excessive toxicity or death

  • Dose Limiting Toxicities for Each Dose Level of Ixabepilone, Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride, and Prednisone in Patients With Hormone-refractory Metastatic Prostate Cancer That Progressed During or After Taxane-based Chemotherapy (Phase I).

    Cohorts of 3 patients will be enrolled at each dose level; if 1 dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is observed then the cohort will be expanded to 6 patients. If a second DLT is observed, the previous dose level will be considered the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). If all observed DLT are due to neuropathy (specific to ixabepilone), then we would consider the previous dose level of Ixabepilone the MTD for that drug, and escalate mitoxantrone hydrochloride as described above to a maximum dose of 12 mg/m\^2. Toxicities will be tabulated by grade for each dose cohort and overall for all patients accrued to the phase I study.

    Course 1 (first 21 days)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Time to Progression (Phase II)

    Every 3 months until cancer progression/excessive toxicity or death

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (combination chemotherapy)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes and ixabepilone IV over 3 hours on day 1 and oral prednisone twice daily on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 21 days for ≥ 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate
  • Progressive metastatic disease (i.e., positive bone scan or measurable disease) despite castrate levels of testosterone (either from orchiectomy or luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone \[LHRH\] agonist therapy)
  • Progressive disease after discontinuing hormonal therapy
  • Progressive disease is based on any of the following\*:
  • Transaxial imaging
  • Rise in prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
  • Radionuclide bone scan (must show new metastatic lesions)
  • Nonmeasurable or measurable disease
  • For measurable disease, progression is defined by RECIST criteria
  • Positive bone scan and elevated PSA required for nonmeasurable disease
  • PSA evidence of progressive prostate cancer during or after first-line chemotherapy consists of a PSA level ≥ 2 ng/mL that has risen on ≥ 2 successive occasions ≥ 1 week apart
  • Received ≥ 3 prior courses of paclitaxel- or docetaxel-based therapy, with disease progression documented during therapy or after cessation of therapy
  • No more than 1 prior chemotherapy regimen
  • Re-treatment with the same taxane-based regimen allowed
  • Changes in prior chemotherapy regimen (addition of other agents) for disease progression are considered 2 chemotherapy regimens, and are not allowed
  • +32 more criteria
