Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of siltuximab administered in combination with mitoxantrone and prednisone in participants with metastatic (spread of cancer cells from one part of the body to another) hormone-refractory (not responding to treatment) prostate cancer (abnormal tissue that grows and spreads in the body) (HRPC).
Detailed Description
This is a 2-part, open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention) multicenter (when more than 1 hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of siltuximab plus mitoxantrone versus mitoxantrone in participants with metastatic HRPC who have received 1 prior Docetaxel-based chemotherapy (treatment of disease, usually cancer, by chemical agents) regimen (pattern of giving treatment). Part 1 of the study is single arm where participants will receive mitoxantrone, prednisone and siltuximab. Part 2 of the study is randomized portion (the study drug is assigned by chance), consisting of 2-arms. The experimental arm will consist of treatment with mitoxantrone, prednisone and siltuximab. The control arm will consist of treatment with mitoxantrone and prednisone. Mitoxantrone will be administered at a dose of 12 milligram per square meter (mg/m\^2) intravenously (into a vein) as a 30-minute infusion (a fluid or a medicine delivered into a vein by way of a needle) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (any harmful effect of a drug) or up to 10 cycles (a maximum total dose of approximately 120 mg/m\^2). Siltuximab will be administered at a dose of 6 mg/kilogram intravenously as a 2-hour infusion, starting Day 1 of Cycle 1 to continue every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity or up to a maximum of 1 year. All participants will receive prednisone 5 mg twice daily starting with the first administration of Mitoxantrone. The duration of treatment will be a maximum of 12 months for cumulative dose. Radiologic assessments will be performed on Week 12 after the first study agent dosing, then every 9 weeks until the end of treatment and then once every 3 months until documented disease progression. Tumor (a mass in a specific area) response will be assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. There will be short-term follow-up visits (conducted monthly for 2 months), followed by long-term follow-up visits (conducted once every 3 months). Participants' safety will also be monitored throughout the study.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Part 1: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Time Frame: Baseline up to 12 weeks after last dose administration
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study. An SAE is any AE that results in: death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, is life-threatening experience, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and may jeopardize participant and/or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.
Part 2: Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: Randomization, Week 12, then every 9 weeks until 1 month after last dose administration, then every 3 months until disease progression or death, up to 2 years
The PFS is the time from the date of randomization until the first documented sign of progression (at least a 20 percent increase in the sum of the longest diameter \[LD\] of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new target or non-target lesions as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors \[RECIST\] or 3 or more new skeletal lesions on bone scan with confirmation of second bone scan or with clinical deterioration) or death, whichever occurs first.
Secondary Outcomes
- Time to Clinical Deterioration (TtCD)(Start of treatment (Part 1)/Randomization (Part 2), Week 1 of each cycle up to 1 month after last dose administration, and thereafter every 3 months until clinical deterioration or death, up to 2 years)
- Number of Participants With Palliative Response(Start of treatment (Part 1)/Randomization (Part 2), Week 1 of each cycle up to 1 month after last dose administration, and thereafter every 3 months up to 2 years)
- Overall Survival (OS)(Start of treatment (Part 1)/Randomization (Part 2) until death, up to 2 years)
- Number of Participants With Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Response(Start of treatment (Part 1)/Randomization (Part 2), Week 1 of each cycle up to 1 month after last dose administration, and thereafter every 3 months until disease progression, up to 2 years)
