Personalizing Docetaxel Dosing in Advanced Prostate Cancer (PARTNER)

March 8, 2023 updated by: Physiomics

Patients with advanced prostate cancer are often treated with the chemotherapy drug docetaxel. The manufacturers of this drug suggest using the same dose of drug per m² body surface area for all patients. However we know that individuals end up with more or less of the drug circulating in their blood even after they have been given the same dose.

A software program (a "Dosing Tool") has been developed to provide information to doctors on how docetaxel will affect individual patients. The program may help doctors to make informed decisions about exactly how much drug to give to different people.

The purpose of the PARTNER study is to gather information from blood tests on patients being treated with docetaxel to help in the further development of the Dosing Tool. Some of these blood tests would have been taken anyway as part of patients' routine treatment. Others are extra for this study. Apart from the additional blood tests, everyone who enters the study is treated just as they would normally be if they were not taking part in the study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Measured vs predicted absolute neutrophil count over time between weeks three and six of docetaxel treatment
Time Frame: The tool will be used to predict the level of neutropenia between the second and third doses of docetaxel (so between weeks three and six of treatment)
