Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Active Comparator: Docetaxel (75 mg/m2) + pegfilgrastim (6 mg) + placebo matching plinabulin
|
Drug: Pegfilgrastim
PEGFILGRASTIM is a long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor that stimulates the growth of neutrophils, to reduce the incidence of fever and infection in patients with certain types of cancer who are receiving chemotherapy that affects the bone marrow.
Other Names:
Other: D5W Placebo
Placebo 250 ml D5W to match the administration of plinabulin diluted in 250 ml D5W

| Experimental: Docetaxel (75 mg/m2) + plinabulin (40 mg) + placebo matching pegfilgrastim
|
Drug: Plinabulin
Plinabulin (BPI-2358) is a synthetic, low molecular weight, new chemical entity that belongs to the diketopiperazine class of compounds. Plinabulin is intended for intravenous (IV) infusion and is diluted in D5W and administered for 30 minutes (± 5 minutes).

-
HRPC (Note that study treatment may be the first chemotherapy treatment)
-
Pathology confirmation of cancer is required.

-
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >/= 1.5 x 10**9/L independent of growth factor support
-
Serum total bilirubin </= 1.5 times the upper limit normal (ULN), unless the patient has a diagnosis of Gilbert's disease, in which case direct bilirubin </= 1.5 times ULN of the direct bilirubin.
-

Female subjects of childbearing potential have a negative pregnancy test at screening. Females of childbearing potential are defined as sexually mature women without prior hysterectomy or who have had any evidence of menses in the past 12 months. However, women who have been amenorrhoeic for 12 or more months are still considered to be of childbearing potential if the amenorrhea is possibly due to prior chemotherapy, anti-estrogens, or ovarian suppression.
-
Women of childbearing potential (i.e., menstruating women) must have a negative urine pregnancy test (positive urine tests are to be confirmed by serum test) documented within the 24-hour period prior to the first dose of study drug.

Sexually active women of childbearing potential enrolled in the study must agree to use two forms of accepted methods of contraception during the course of the study and for 3 months after their last dose of study drug. Effective birth control includes (a) intrauterine device (IUD) plus one barrier method; (b) on stable doses of hormonal contraception for at least 3 months (e.g., oral, injectable, implant, transdermal) plus one barrier method; (c) 2 barrier methods. Effective barrier methods are male or female condoms, diaphragms, and spermicides (creams or gels that contain a chemical to kill sperm); or (d) a vasectomized partner.
-
For male patients who are sexually active and who are partners of premenopausal women: agreement to use two forms of contraception during the treatment period and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug.

-
Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositivity.
