Trial Information

A Phase II, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Randomised Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Docetaxel (Taxotere)/Prednisolone/ZD6474 vs Docetaxel/Prednisolone/Placebo in Patients With Hormone Refractory Prostrate Cancer (HRPC)


Inclusion Criteria:



- Metastatic hormone refractory prostate cancer defined as those patients with evidence
of progression of disease in spite of castrate levels of testosterone indicated by
rising levels of PSA

- No previous chemotherapy although those patients that have received estramustine can
enter the study provided the estramustine was stopped 3 weeks before dosing of study
drug

- screening PSA values >20ng/ml. this must be confirmed by two separate measurements
at least 2 weeks apart

Exclusion Criteria:

- Treatment within 4 weeks before randomization and/or whilst on study, treatment with
the following: 1)non-approved or experimental drug, 2)treatment with a drug with
similar mechanism of action to ZD6474

- concurrent treatment with other anticancer agents, othr than docetaxel and
prednisolone as defined in the protocol

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double-Blind, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Response

Outcome Description:

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) response was defined as a reduction of at least 50% from baseline at any assessment, confirmed by a second assessment 2-4 weeks after the initial response

Outcome Time Frame:

PSA measurements were to be performed at screening, at baseline (>2 weeks after screening) and every 3 weeks during the study. Any response was to be confirmed 2-4 weeks after the initial assessment of a 50% fall in PSA from baseline

Safety Issue:

No
