Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out whether giving a drug called PCK3145 can reduce the level of a protein in the blood called MMP-9 as well as to find out how long the drug will remain in your system over time. This drug has been tested previously in prostate cancer patients abroad and has been shown to be safe with minimal side effects. However, we do not know whether changes in MMP-9 levels correlate with tumor shrinkage or symptom improvement. We would also like to evaluate the potential pain relief (analgesic) effect of PCK3145 at 15mg/m² i.v. weekly for 12 weeks on patients with both symptomatic and asymptomatic castrate metastatic prostate cancer who are dependent on opioid analgesics. We would also like to monitor pain through a brief pain questionaire, and determine the impact on markers of bone turnover.
