简要总结
The aim of our study is to assess the efficacy and toxicity of a chemotherapy regimen combining carboplatin and etoposide in patients with metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer and neuro-endocrine differentiation. Eligible patients are treated with the combination of carboplatin AUC4 on day 1 and etoposide 100 mg/m2 on day 1, day 2 and day 3 repeated every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles. Efficacy endpoints include Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) and neuro-endocrine marker response (defined as a 50% or greater decrease from baseline serum values), objective response rate (according to RECIST criteria), and toxicity.
详细描述
Neuro-endocrine differentiation is observed in the evolution of hormone-resistant prostate cancer. The aim of our study is to assess the efficacy and toxicity of a chemotherapy regimen combining carboplatin and etoposide in patients with metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer and neuro-endocrine differentiation. To be eligible, patients must have either circulating neuro-endocrine markers (Chromogranin A: CgA, Neuron Specific Enolase: NSE)and/or visceral metastases. Eligible patients are treated with the combination of carboplatin AUC4 administered on day 1 and etoposide 100 mg/m2 given on day 1, day 2 and day 3 and repeated every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles. The primary objective of the study is to assess objective response to the carboplatin - etoposide combination (according to RECIST criteria for lesions and defined as a 50% or greater decrease from baseline serum values for PSA and neuro-endocrine markers). Secondary objectives include evaluation of toxicity, duration of response, progression-free-survival and overall survival.

入选标准
- •Histological evidence of prostate adenocarcinoma
- •Metastatic disease, either measurable (lymph nodes, hepatic lesion, pulmonary lesions with longest diameter > or = 1 cm on spiral scan), or non measurable (bone metastasis)
- •Patients must:
- •Have received hormonal therapy via surgical or chemical castration (LH-RH agonist) with or without anti-androgens. Anti-androgen withdrawal is recommended before inclusion, with an off-treatment period of at least 4 weeks. LH-RH agonist treatment must be continued.
- •Have a relapse or disease refractory to hormonal treatment (defined by a testosterone level < 0.5 µg/ml)
- •Have neuroendocrine progression defined, whatever the PSA level, as:
- •NSE and/or Chromogranin A > 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) with or without visceral metastases (liver, lung, lymph node)
- •No increase of NSE or Chromogranin A, but visceral metastases (either hepatic, pleuro-pulmonary, or nodal) with cytological or histological confirmation of the presence of an undifferentiated or neuro-endocrine component of prostatic origin
- •Prior treatment by radiotherapy is allowed but radiation therapy must have been completed for at least 4 weeks before inclusion and irradiated areas must not represent more than 25% of marrow reserves
- •Prior treatment by estramustine is allowed but must have been stopped at least 4 weeks before inclusion
- •Age> or = 18 years
- •Life expectancy> or = 3 months
- •Karnofsky index> or = 50%
- •Adequate haematological function: neutrophils> or = 1.5 G/l, platelets> or = 100 G/l, haemoglobin> or = 8 g/dl. Use of erythropoietin is allowed.
- •Adequate liver function: bilirubin level within the institution's normal range, AST and ALT< or = 1.5 ULN
- •Adequate renal function: creatinine clearance> or = 40 ml/min (Gault and Cockroft method)
- •Signed written informed consent.
排除标准
- •Patients having no> 1.5 x ULN increase of at least one neuro-endocrine marker (NSE or chromogranin A) and no cytological or histological (undifferentiated or neuro-endocrine type) evidence of visceral metastasis (hepatic, pleuro-pulmonary, or nodal)
- •History of other malignancies, other than curatively treated basal cell skin carcinoma or any other curatively treated cancer with no sign of recurrence within 5 years
- •Symptomatically uncontrolled brain metastasis
- •Interstitial radiation therapy (using strontium or samarium) within the previous 3 months
- •Prior treatment with platinum salts or etoposide. Other chemotherapy regimens are allowed provided that the last dose has been administered> or = 4 weeks prior to inclusion.
- •Concomitant treatment with other anti-cancer drugs, except corticoid or LH-RH agonist injections
- •Peripheral neuropathy> or = 2 (NCI-CTCAE)
- •Uncontrolled progressive thrombo-embolic disease
