Summary

This study will review the safety of picoplatin, a new type of platinum drug, with docetaxel, a drug commonly used in the treatment of prostate cancer. Patients who are eligible for this study will have had a diagnosis of hormone-refractory prostate cancer that has metastasized to other areas of the body, and have not been previously treated with chemotherapy drugs. Picoplatin will be administered in combination with docetaxel and prednisone to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Patients will receive IV treatments of picoplatin with docetaxel every 3 weeks, with prednisone, 5 mg orally, twice daily.

Conditions

  • Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

Picoplatin

The treatment regimen will be the assigned dose of picoplatin plus docetaxel, 60 mg/m2 or 75 mg/m2, once every three weeks, plus prednisone (or prednisolone, if prednisone is not available), 5 mg orally twice daily beginning on day 1 and continuing daily until therapy is discontinued. Docetaxel will be given intravenously over 60 minutes, followed 30 minutes later by picoplatin as a 1-2 hour intravenous infusion.

DRUG

docetaxel

The treatment regimen will be the assigned dose of picoplatin plus docetaxel, 60 mg/m2 or 75 mg/m2, once every three weeks, plus prednisone (or prednisolone, if prednisone is not available), 5 mg orally twice daily beginning on day 1 and continuing daily until therapy is discontinued. Docetaxel will be given intravenously over 60 minutes, followed 30 minutes later by picoplatin as a 1-2 hour intravenous infusion.
