This is an open label study designed to examine the effects on concurrent administration of
Radium Ra 223 dichloride and Abiraterone Acetate plus Prednisone in subjects with symptomatic
castrate resistant prostate cancer and with bone metastases, in both the pre- and post-
chemotherapy setting. Both medications are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration
for this indication.

Approximately 40 subjects will be enrolled to obtain 30 evaluable subjects. All subjects will
receive Radium Ra 223 dichloride every 4 weeks for a total of 6 doses over 24 weeks and
concurrent Abiraterone Acetate plus Prednisone for a minimum duration of 26 weeks.

Subjects will be evaluated 30 days after the last dose of Radium Ra 223 dichloride. All
adverse events deemed to be study related will be followed until resolution. Including
screening, the total duration of the study is 32 weeks.

Inclusion Criteria:

Eligible subjects will conform to all of the inclusion criteria listed below:

1. Subject must be able to understand and be willing to sign the written informed consent
form. A signed informed consent form must be appropriately obtained prior to the
conduct of any trial-specific procedure.

2. Subject is willing and able to comply with the protocol, including all study visits
and procedures.

3. Subject is a male, greater than 18 years at time of enrollment.

4. Life expectancy of at least 9 months.

5. Subject has histologically documented prostate cancer confirmed by a pathology report
from a prostate biopsy or radical prostatectomy specimen.

6. Subject must:

• have initiated a stable dose of daily Abiraterone Acetate plus Prednisone within 90
days of enrollment, or

• plans to initiate a stable daily dose of Abiraterone plus Prednisone within 30 days
of the first Radium Ra 223 dichloride treatment.

7. Subject must plan to receive all 6 Radium Ra 223 dichloride injections and daily oral
doses of Abiraterone plus Prednisone during the trial, per protocol.

8. Subject has a history of bone metastasis from prostate cancer as evidenced by imaging
performed within 90 days of enrollment from one of the following:

• Tc Bone Scan or

• Sodium Fluoride PET/CT Scan

*If a bone scan is used, solitary lesions which could be contributed to causes other
than prostate cancer must be confirmed with a second modality (i.e.: plain films, CT
Scan or MRI.

9. Subject has Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer, defined as rising PSA with a
testosterone level (medical or surgical castration).

* PSA progression will be defined as at least 2 rising PSA levels taken at least 7
days apart with the 2nd PSA being 2.0 ng/dl or greater.

10. Subject has the presence of bone pain requiring treatment with:

1) EBRT within the previous 12 weeks prior to enrollment, or 2) Analgesic medications
(including but not limited to acetaminophen, NSAIDS, Cox-2 inhibitors, and narcotic
Opioids).

11. Subject has an ECOG performance status of 0-2 at screening 12. Acceptable hematology
and serum biochemistry screening values:

• White Blood Cell (WBC) >/= 3,000/mm3

- Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) >1500/mm3

- Platelet (PLT) count >100,000/mm3

- Hemoglobin (HGB) > 10.0 g/dL (100g/L; 6.2 mmol/L

- Creatinine <1.5 ULN

- Total bilirubin level <1.5 X ULN

- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <2.5 X ULN

- albumin >25 g/L

- Baseline electrolytes within normal limits ( Sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium,
phosphate, magnesium, LDH, γGT, urea, total protein) 13. Normal Liver Function Tests
(LFT) and normal Renal Function Tests (RFT) at screening visit. If the subject has
LFT's or RFT's greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), Medical Monitor
review, in conjunction with the subject's PI, will be required.

14. Subjects receiving Anti-Resorptive medications (such as Zolendronic Acid or
denosumab) must be on a stable dose for at least 90 days prior to enrollment (Cycle
1/Week 1/ Day 1). Anti-resorptive medications may be added to the subject's regimen
after the End of Treatment visit has been completed. Anti-resorptive medication
withdrawal will be allowed per Investigator discretion due to adverse events
attributable to that medication.

15. Subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception
beginning at the enrollment until at least 30 days after the last dose of the study
drugs. The definition of adequate contraception will be based on the judgment of the
principal investigator or a designated associate.

Exclusion Criteria:

Eligible subjects must not meet any of the exclusion criteria listed below:

1. Subject has known malignant pleural effusion, or known lung, liver or brain metastasis

4. Subject has a known medical contraindication to Prednisone, Abiraterone Acetate or
Radium Ra 223 dichloride.

5. Subject is not willing to initiate a stable dose of daily Abiraterone Acetate plus
Prednisone within 90 days of enrollment, or does not plan to initiate a stable daily
dose of Abiraterone Acetate plus Prednisone within 30 days of the first Radium Ra 223
dichloride treatment.

6. Subject does not plan to receive all 6 infusions of Radium Ra 223 Dichloride and daily
Abiraterone Acetate plus Prednisone during the trial, per protocol.

7. Subject has received previous strontium-89, samarium-153, rhenium-186, or rhenium-188
