Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in circulating lipid profile assessed by measuring levels of ceramides in a blood sample with the concomitant use of evolocumab in men commencing chemotherapy (docetaxel or cabazitaxel) or ARSI therapy (abiraterone or enzalutamide) for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). <br><br>[ Baseline and at 12 weeks post-treatment commencement]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in PSA levels assessed using a blood sample<br>[ Baseline and at 12 weeks post-treatment commencement];Adverse events (worst grade according to National cancer institute's (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.03.<br><br>The proportion of patients experiencing treatment-related toxicities, as defined by the Common Toxicity Criteria v4.0 of the National Cancer Institute (NCI CTC v4.03) and reporting of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs). The NCI CTCAE v4.03 will be used to classify and grade the intensity of adverse events after each dose of evolocumab. <br>[ This outcome will be assessed at 4, 8, and 12 weeks following evolocumab treatment commencement.]
