A Phase I/IIa Study of Safety and Efficacy of Alpharadin® With Docetaxel in Patients With Bone Metastasis From Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

The main purpose of this study is to establish a recommended dose of Alpharadin to be used
in combination with docetaxel in patients with bone metastases from castration-resistant
prostate cancer and to investigate safety and explore efficacy of the recommended dose.

The trial was initially conducted and submitted by Algeta ASA. After acquiring Algeta, Bayer
is now the sponsor.

- Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate.

- Two or more bone metastases (hot spots) confirmed by bone scintigraphy within 8 weeks
prior to study entry

- Known castration-resistant disease

- Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS): ≥70% within 14 days before start of study
treatment (ECOG 1)

- Life expectancy at least 6 months.

- Acceptable hematology and serum biochemistry screening values

- Eligible for use of docetaxel according to the product information (package insert or
similar).

Exclusion Criteria:

- Has received an investigational therapeutic drug within the last 4 weeks prior to
start of study treatment, or is scheduled to receive one during the treatment period.

- Has received external radiotherapy within the last 4 weeks prior to start of study
treatment.

- Has an immediate need for radiotherapy.

- Has received prior hemibody external radiotherapy .

- Has received systemic radiotherapy (e.g. samarium, strontium etc.) for the treatment
of bone metastases.

- Has received cytotoxic chemotherapy within the last 4 weeks prior to start of study
treatment, or has not recovered to grade 1 or 0 from adverse events due to cytotoxic
chemotherapy administered more than 4 weeks earlier.

- Has received more than ten previous infusions of docetaxel.

- Previous known experience of grade ≥ 3 docetaxel related toxicities or docetaxel
toxicity related dose interruption or discontinuation.

- Previous use of G-CSF for persistent neutropenia after docetaxel treatment.

- Has received blood transfusion or erythropoietin (EPO) within the last 4 weeks prior
to start of study treatment.

- Has received prior treatment with Alpharadin.

- Malignant lymphadenopathy exceeding 3 cm in short-axis diameter.

- Symptomatic nodal disease, i.e. scrotal, penile or leg edema.

- Visceral metastases from CRPC (>2 lung and/or liver metastases [size ≥2cm]), as
assessed by CT scan or MRI of the chest/abdomen/pelvis within the last 8 weeks prior
to start of study treatment.

- Uncontrolled loco-regional disease.

- Other primary tumor (other than CRPC) including haematological malignancy present
within the last 5 years (except non-melanoma skin cancer or low-grade superficial
bladder cancer).

- Has imminent or established spinal cord compression based on clinical findings and/or
MRI.

- Unmanageable fecal incontinence
