- Castration resistant prostate cancer as defined by serum testosterone < 50 ng/ml
and one of the following:

- PSA level of at least 2 ng/ml that has risen on at least 2 successive occasions
at least 1 week apart. Evaluable disease progression by modified RECIST
(Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors)

- Progression of metastatic bone disease on bone scan with > 2 new lesions

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients unable to stop chronic anticoagulation with warfarin or lovenox for less
than 3 days

- Serious or uncontrolled infection
