Secondary

  1. Compare health economic endpoints between the treatment groups.
  2. Compare changes in bone mineral density between the treatment groups.

Tertiary

  1. Compare median time to disease progression between the treatment groups.
  2. Compare pain progression-free survival (PFS) between the treatment groups.

  4. Compare pain response between the treatment groups.
  5. Compare overall survival between the treatment groups.
  6. Compare quality of life between the treatment groups.

  • ALT and AST ≤ 1.5 times ULN (unless related to hepatic metastatic disease, where patients may be entered after discussion with one of the clinical advisors)
  • Serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times ULN
  • Physically fit enough to receive trial treatment
  • No malignant disease within the past 5 years, other than adequately treated basal cell carcinoma
  • No symptomatic peripheral neuropathy ≥ grade 2 (NCI CTC)
  • No known hypersensitivity to bisphosphonates
  • No condition, in the opinion of the investigator, that may interfere with the safety of the patient or evaluation of the study objectives

Outline

This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to treatment center and ECOG performance status (0 vs 1 vs 2). Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive docetaxel IV on day 1 and oral prednisolone once daily.


  • Arm II: Patients receive docetaxel and prednisolone as in arm I and zoledronic acid IV over 15 minutes on day 1.


  • Arm III: Patients receive docetaxel and prednisolone as in arm I and a single dose of strontium chloride Sr 89 IV on day 7 of course 2.


  • Arm IV: Patients receive docetaxel and prednisolone as in arm I, zoledronic acid as in arm II, and strontium chloride Sr 89 as in arm III.


Treatment with docetaxel, prednisolone, and zoledronic acid repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Strontium chloride Sr 89 is given as a one time single dose.

Quality of life is assessed using the Euroqual (EQ-5D) and FACT-P at baseline and every 3 months during follow up.

After completion of study, patients are followed every 3 months.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol.
