Surgically or medically castrated, with serum testosterone levels of ≤ 50 ng/dL equivalent to 1.7 nmol/L. For patients, currently being treated with luteinizing hormone–releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists, i.e., patients who have not undergone an orchiectomy, therapy must be continued throughout the study. 3. Have evidence of disease progression after prior therapy for mCRPC: Disease progression after initiation of most recent therapy is based on any of the following criteria: • Rise in PSA: a minimum of 2 consecutive rising levels, with an interval of ≥ 1 week between each determination. The most recent screening measurement must have been ≥ 2 ng/mL. • Transaxial imaging: new or progressive soft tissue masses on CT or MRI scans as defined by RECIST 1.1 • Radionuclide bone scan: at least 2 new metastatic lesions 4. Signed informed consent obtained prior to initiation of any study-specific procedures or treatment 5. Age ≥ 18 years 6. Life expectancy ≥ 3 months 7. Performance status 0 - 1 8. Adequate organ functions a. Hematological: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >1.5 x 109/L, platelet count >100 x 109/L, hemoglobin > 6,2 mmol/L b. Hepatic: Bilirubin within normal range, aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) <2.5 UNL, albumin > 25 g/L c. Renal: creatinine clearance >30 mL/min/1.73m2
You likely can't join if
