Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
efficacy of docetaxel plus carboplatin
The primary endpoint of the study is best overall response (complete or partial response) obtained from measurable target lesion or PSA, as defined using the modified RECIST criteria.
evaluated every 3 cycles (9 weeks)
Secondary Outcomes (1)
duration of response and toxicity profile of docetaxel and carboplatin.
during patient's treatment
Study Arms (1)
docetaxel and prednisolone
EXPERIMENTALPatients in study will receive both chemotherapeutic agents on day 1 and day 8 of every 21-day cycle as described below: * Docetaxel 30 mg/m2 over 1 hour IV infusion, followed by * Carboplatin (AUC 2) over 1 hour IV infusion * Additonal medication required: IV Dexamethasone 10 mg followed by PO dexamethasone 4 mg 8 hourly x 4 doses, starting 12 hours after starting iv docetaxel.
Interventions
Docetaxel Form: A white, lyophilized powder in vials of 50, 150, and 450 mg each, which should be stored at room temperature in a light-protected area. Carboplatin Form: Taxotere is supplied as a sterile, non-aqueous, viscous solution with an accompanying sterile diluent (13% ethanol in water for injection). 20 and 80 mg strengths are available.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate.
- At the time of enrollment, patients must have evidence of metastatic disease, with either measurable disease per RECIST criteria or non- measurable disease (i.e. positive bones scan) and PSA \> 5 ng/mm3.
- Disease progression following androgen deprivation therapy.
- Progression is defined according to the PSA Working Group criteria (see 6.1.3 and 6.3).
- Serum testosterone levels \< 50 ng/mm3 (unless surgically castrate). Patients must continue androgen deprivation with an LHRH analogue if they have not undergone orchiectomy.
- No use of an antiandrogen for at least 4 weeks.
- Have not been treated with chemotherapy before.
- ECOG performance status of \<= 2.
- Laboratory criteria for entry:
- White blood cell (WBC) =\> 3000/mm3
- Platelets =\> 100,000/mm3
- AST \< 2.5 x upper limit of normal
- Calculated CCT of =\> 40 ml/min
- Signed informed consent form.
- Age: 30 years old and above
You may not qualify if:
- Significant peripheral neuropathy defined as grade 2 or higher.
- Within 4 weeks since completing external beam radiotherapy or 8 weeks since completing radiopharmaceutical therapy (strontium, samarium).
- Concomitant chemotherapy or investigational agents.
