A Phase II Trial to Assess the Efficacy of Efavirenz in Metastatic Patients With Androgen-independent Prostate Cancer


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- To assess the effect of efavirenz on the non-PSA progression rate at 3 months in
patients with castration-refractory metastatic prostate cancer.

Secondary

- To assess the effect of efavirenz on the PSA response at 3 months.

- To assess the effect of efavirenz on overall survival.

- To assess the effect of efavirenz on PSA progression-free survival.

- To assess the effect of efavirenz on symptomatic progression-free survival.

- To assess the tolerability and safety profile of efavirenz.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral efavirenz once daily in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.
