Criteria

Continuation in the study would be detrimental to the patient's well-being
-
Development of life-threatening and/or toxic conditions not manageable by symptomatic care, dose reduction, or delay of dosing
-
Obvious disease progression (rising prostate specific antigen, any increase of ≥ 20 % in the sum of the measurable lesion in comparison to the nadir value, and progression in non-measurable lesion)
-
Patients treated with anti-cancer treatment other than study therapy after completion of 10 cycles of study treatment in the XRP6976J/2101 study
