You may be eligible if
Histologically documented prostate cancer with evidence of metastatic disease on radiological evaluation, with or without symptoms (defined according to the BPI scale, with use of analgesics or narcotics)
Has received a first line docetaxel based chemotherapy (as a monotherapy) every 3 weeks schedule of administration with corticosteroids for a minimum of 6 cycles with a cumulative dose ≥360 mg/m2. Any combination with investigational or non investigational agent is prohibited
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
Docetaxel-related adverse effects must have been resolved to NCI-CTCAE v4.03 (Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects) Grade ≤1. Chemotherapy-induced alopecia and Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy are allowed
No progressive disease at the end of docetaxel treatment defined according to RECIST criteria, no new lesion(s) assessed by bone scan and no elevated prostate specific antigen (PSA) for the three last tests with PSA3≤PSA2≤PSA1. The time between each PSA test should be preferably at least 14 days, however, a minimum of 7 days is acceptable.
Note: PSA value can be rounded to the nearest whole number if PSA\>10 ng/mL. If the PSA3 value is above the PSA2, a fourth PSA test will be performed. The PSA4 value should be below or equal to PSA2
Last dose of docetaxel administered between 21 and 42 days before randomisation
Chemical or surgical castration verified by levels of serum testosterone ≤50 ng/dL (1.75 nmol/L)
You may not be if
Has concurrent use of other anticancer agents or treatments, with the following exceptions: ongoing treatment with luteinising hormone-releasing hormone agonists or antagonists, denosumab or bisphosphonate (e.g., zoledronic acid) is permitted if started ≥4 weeks prior to Screening. Ongoing treatment should be kept at a stable dose regimen
Has ongoing treatment with warfarin
Had prior radiation therapy since starting docetaxel. Exceptions may be made for palliative non-myelosuppressive radiation therapy administered more than 2 weeks prior to randomisation
Had prior strontium, samarium or radium therapy or prior treatment with tasquinimod, or any agents with antiangiogenic properties
Has ongoing treatment with corticosteroids at \>10 mg/day prednisolone equivalent
Has prostate cancer pain that warrants the initiation of radiotherapy or chemotherapy
Has known brain or epidural metastases. Patients with previous medullary cord compression without any neurological deficit could be included
Has a history of other malignancies, except adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or other solid tumours curatively treated, without evidence of disease for \>5 years
