Not accepted
You may be eligible if
1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell features;
2. At least 18 years of age when signing the Informed Consent;
3. Presence of metastatic disease on bone scan or CT/MRI imaging;
4. Ongoing androgen deprivation therapy with a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue or orchiectomy (i.e., medical or surgical castration);
5. For patients who have not had an orchiectomy, there must be a plan to maintain effective GnRH-analogue therapy for the duration of the trial;
6. Serum testosterone level \< 50 ng/dL at the Screening Visit;
7. Progressive disease on or following docetaxel-based chemotherapy with medical or surgical castration. Patients who are intolerant of docetaxel are also allowed. Disease progression for study entry is defined as one or more of the following three criteria: 1) PSA progression defined by a minimum of three rising PSA levels with an interval of ≥ 1 week between each determination. The PSA value at the Screening visit should be ≥ 2 μg/L (2 ng/mL); 2) Soft tissue disease progression defined by RECIST 1.1; 3) Bone metastatic disease progression defined by one or more new lesions on bone scan that are not clinically consistent with tumor flare;
8. No more than three prior chemotherapy regimens with at least one regimen containing docetaxel (unless intolerant as per # 7 above);
9. Karnofsky Performance Status of \>70;
10. Estimated life expectancy of at least three months;
11. Able to swallow the study drug and comply with study requirements;
12. Willing and able to give informed consent.
You may not be if
1. Subjects \> 80 years old (dose escalation phase only, due to lower clearance in elderly patients);
2. Severe concurrent disease, infection, or co-morbidity that, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for enrollment;
3. Metastases in the brain or active epidural disease (NOTE: patients with treated epidural disease are allowed provided follow up imaging documents stability of epidural disease);
4. Absolute neutrophil count \< 1,200/μL, platelet count \< 100,000/μL, and hemoglobin \<9 g/dL at the Screening Visit; (NOTE: patients may not have received any growth factors or blood transfusions within seven days of the hematologic laboratory values obtained at the Screening Visit)
5. Total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>1.5 times the upper limit of normal at the Screening Visit;
6. Creatinine \> 1.5 x ULN at the Screening visit;
7. History of another malignancy within the previous 3 years other than non-melanomatous skin cancer or non-invasive bladder cancer treated with curative intent;
8. Treatment with androgen receptor antagonists (bicalutamide, flutamide, nilutamide, MDV3100), 5-α reductase inhibitors (finasteride, dutasteride), estrogens (ie DES), sipuleucel-T, or chemotherapy within 28 days of Day 1 visit or plans to initiate treatment with any of these treatments during the study;
9. Use of herbal products that may decrease PSA levels or systemic corticosteroids greater than the equivalent of 10 mg of prednisone/prednisolone per day within four weeks of Day 1 visit;
10. Ongoing treatment with warfarin unless the international normalized ratio (INR) is well controlled and below 4
11. Exposure to ketoconazole or other strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers intravenously or orally within 28 days prior to Day 1 Visit. For abiraterone acetate or TAK700, 14 days washout is needed.
12. Ongoing treatment with sensitive CYP1A2 substrates or CYP1A2 substrates with narrow therapeutic range (Appendix 3).
13. Ongoing treatment with CYP3A4 substrates with narrow therapeutic range (Appendix 3).
14. Radiation therapy within 2 weeks (if single fraction of radiotherapy within 2 weeks) and radionuclide therapy within 8 weeks of Day 1 visit;
15. Planned palliative procedures for alleviation of bone pain such as radiation therapy or surgery;
16. Structurally unstable bone lesions suggesting impending fracture;
17. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease including:myocardial infarction within 6 months, uncontrolled angina within 3 months, congestive heart failure, Diagnosed or suspected congenital long QT syndrome; significant ventricular arrhythmias, Prolonged corrected QT interval by the Fridericia or Bazett correction formula, History of Mobitz II second degree or third degree heart block without a permanent pacemaker in place; Hypotension (systolic blood pressure \< 86 mMHg or bradycardia with a heart rate \< 50 beats per minute on any ECG taken at the Screening or Day 1 visit; Uncontrolled hypertension; TIA or stroke/CVA within 6 months of Day 1 visit; Rest limb claudication or ischemia within 6 months of Day 1 visit
18. Use of an investigational agent within four weeks of Day 1 visit or plans to initiate treatment with an investigational agent during the study;
19. Gastrointestinal disorder affecting absorption (e.g., gastrectomy, active peptic ulcer disease within last three months);
20. Major surgery within four weeks prior to Day 1 visit.
21. Presence of NCI CTC grade \>1 peripheral neuropathy
22. History of pancreatitis
23. Known positive serology for HIV (patients with known history of HIV will be excluded because of potential for unforeseen toxicity and morbidity in an immunocompromised host).
24. Chronic hepatitis B or C with advanced, decompensated hepatic disease, or cirrhosis of the liver or history of a chronic viral hepatitis or known viral hepatitis carrier (patients recovered from hepatitis will be allowed to enter the study).
25. Documented prior disease progression on tasquinimod -
