• Status: Terminated
• Trial end date: 2009-03-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This is a single-center, open-label (sequential-group dose-escalation dose-finding) phase I study of satraplatin and docetaxel in patients who have received prior chemotherapy regimens. Once the MTD is determined, an additional 6 patients, all with chemotherapy-naïve HRPC, will be enrolled. Once a recommended dose(s) (RD(s)) for phase 2 studies has/have been determined, 6 additional patients with chemotherapy-naïve HRPC will be enrolled at the RD to further evaluate safety and efficacy.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

• fatigue

• mucositis

• nausea/vomiting/diarrhea.

• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing active infection, uncontrolled congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness that would limit compliance with study requirements.
