- Have progressive castrate metastatic disease as shown by at least one of the
following:

- Imaging modalities:

- Radionuclide Bone Scan: New osseous lesions

the investigational nature of this study in keeping with the policies of the
institution and have provided written authorization for use and disclosure of
protected health information

- Must be willing and able to comply with the protocol, and agrees to return to the
hospital for follow-up visits and examination

Radium-223 chloride, or is scheduled to receive one during the treatment and
post-treatment period

prior to administration of study drug, or has not recovered from acute adverse events
as a result of such therapy

- Have received prior hemibody external radiotherapy

- Have a need for immediate external radiotherapy

- Have received systemic radiotherapy with radium-223, strontium-89, samarium-153,
rhenium-186 or rhenium-188 for the treatment of bony metastases within the last 24
weeks prior to administration of study drug

administration, or are expected to be subject to changes in the systemic steroid
medication

MRI

- Have other currently active (relapse within the last 3 years) malignancy (except
non-melanoma skin cancer) that are not prostate cancer metastases

- Have small cell carcinoma

- Have predominant visceral metastases (≥ 3 lung or liver lesions) or symptomatic
lymph-adenopathy (scrotal or pedal edema)

- Any other serious illness or medical condition, for example:

- any uncontrolled infection

- any patient who has clinical heart failure severe enough to cause marked
limitation of activity, and who is only comfortable at rest; or any patient who
has heart failure more severe than this (NYHA Heart Failure Class III or IV)
