Incidence of Adverse Events Graded According to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0 (Phases I and II) Primary · Up to 3 years

Safety will be assessed through summaries of adverse events, vital signs, physical examinations, and clinical laboratory test data. Adverse events will then be quantified via CTCAE 4.0.

Percentage of Patients With Reduction in Prostate Specific Antigen According to the Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 (PCWG2) Criteria (Phases I and II) Secondary · Baseline to up to 3 years

PSA decline from the level at registration will be quantified for each patient and proportion of patients with PSA decline divided by the total number of patients enrolled in study will be described.

Sponsor's own description

This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well sirolimus works when given together with docetaxel and carboplatin in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Biological therapies, such as sirolimus, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving sirolimus together with docetaxel and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells.
