Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2a DoseWithin 12 weeks following treatment

Determination of the MTD based on documentation of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and adverse events. Eighteen patients will be accrued for this part of the study. The MTD will be determined based on both the acute DLTs (within the first cycle of treatment) and late (within cycles 2 through 3) DLTs of APC-100. The establishment of a recommended phase 2a dose will be based on toxicity (DLTs within the first 28 days) and tolerability (DLTs within the first 12 weeks) of APC-100.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Assess number, types, and severity of toxicity and adverse events12 weeks

Assessment of incidence, severity, duration, causality and types of toxicity and adverse event severities assessed by NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI CTC), version 4.0)

Assess preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity through PSA responsepre-study, Cycle 1: Day 1 (unless prestudy was performed within 7 days of study entry), Cycle 2: Day 1, End of Treatment

Assessment of preliminary anti-tumor activity will be based on PSA response (absolute and percentage change compared to prestudy (baseline) and RECIST criteria, if the patient has measurable disease.

Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of APC-100Pre-Dose, Cycle 1:Day 1, Cycle 2:Day 2,Pre-Dose on Day 1 of each additional cycle

Single dose and steady state pharmacokinetics of APC-100 by oral administration daily for 28 consecutive days on a 28-day cycle will be determined. The following PK parameters (half-life, Cmax, Tmax, AUC, CI, CIr and V) will be determined.
