What this Trial Is About
This is an open-label phase I/II study evaluating the addition of ebastine to docetaxel in the treatment for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion to receive ebastine daily during and after treatment with a maximum of 10 courses of docetaxel. The primary endpoint is change in the profile of urinary and blood lipids to indicate absorption and possible efficacy of ebastine. Secondary endpoints include PSA response and radiologic progression free survival.
