Summary

There is no accepted standard chemotherapy approved for use in the second line for patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma whose cancer has progressed on combination chemotherapy including either cisplatin or carboplatin. The chemotherapy class called taxanes, either as single agents or in combination, have demonstrated modest efficacy in small studies. Cabazitaxel is an agent in the taxane family designed to be active in the setting of acquired multi-drug resistance that arises in some tumors. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this agent in patients with urothelial carcinoma refractory compared to combination platinum based chemotherapy.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Cabazitaxel

* Cycle 1: 20 mg/m2 in 250cc NS via IV on Day 1 every 21 days * Following cycles: 20 mg/m2 or escalated to 25 mg/m2 or reduced by 5 mg/m2 in 250cc NS via IV on Day 1 every 21 days at investigator's discretion * Treatment continues until disease progression, intercurrent illness preventing further treatment, unacceptable adverse event(s), patient withdraws from the study, or changes in the patient's condition which render further treatment unacceptable in the judgment of the investigator

DRUG

Neulasta

6 mg via SQ on Day 2 (24-48 hours post-cabazitaxel) every 21 days

PROCEDURE

CT Scan

CT scan of chest, abdomen, and pelvis to assess disease following every 3rd cycle of treatment (approximately every 9 weeks)

BIOLOGICAL

Blood Draw

Approximately 2 tablespoons of blood will be taken to test complete blood count, glucose, hematology, electrolytes, liver function, creatinine clearance, and a chemistry profile. This week be done weekly during the first cycle of treatment
