简要总结
The primary objective is to determine the efficacy of docetaxel plus carboplatin as first line treatment in patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer.
详细描述
Docetaxel-prednisolone is the current standard in HRPC, based on 2 large randomized trials showing improved survival compared to mitoxantrone-prednisolone. Carboplatin has activity in prostate cancer and the combination of Docetaxel-carboplatin is known to be synergistic and is used with good effect in many cancers. The advantage of using this combination in prostate cancer is suported by clinical data: high response rates of docetaxel-carboplatin-estramustine (with G-CSF support) in a phase II trial (Oh, Halabi, Kelly et al. Cancer. 2003 Dec 15;98(12):2592-8), and additional effect of this combination in prior taxane failures (Oh, George, Tay. Clin Prostate Cancer. 2005 Jun;4(1):61-4). Carboplatin itself has activity and theoretically could target the more hormone resistant clones or neuroendocrine components of the tumor.(Di Sant' Agnese. J Urol. 1994 Nov;152(5 Pt 2):1927-31.) We are studying the combination of docetaxel-carboplatin both given in a weekly, low-dose fashion, without estramustine and without G-CSF. This is expected to be an effective and tolerable treatment for HRPC patients. We will be documenting (to our knowledge) for the first time in this trial the efficacy of the combination given in this particular dose and schedule.

研究组 & 干预措施
docetaxel and prednisolone
Patients in study will receive both chemotherapeutic agents on day 1 and day 8 of every 21-day cycle as described below:
- Docetaxel 30 mg/m2 over 1 hour IV infusion, followed by
- Carboplatin (AUC 2) over 1 hour IV infusion
- Additonal medication required: IV Dexamethasone 10 mg followed by PO dexamethasone 4 mg 8 hourly x 4 doses, starting 12 hours after starting iv docetaxel.
干预措施: Docetaxel, Carboplatin (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局

时间窗: evaluated every 3 cycles (9 weeks)
The primary endpoint of the study is best overall response (complete or partial response) obtained from measurable target lesion or PSA, as defined using the modified RECIST criteria.
次要结局
- duration of response and toxicity profile of docetaxel and carboplatin.(during patient's treatment)
