Open Label Phase Two Trial of Radium Ra 223 Dichloride With Concurrent Administration of Abiraterone Acetate Plus Prednisone in Symptomatic Castration-Resistant (Hormone-Refractory) Prostate Cancer Subjects With Bone Metastasis

Radium Ra 223 dichloride - A targeted alpha particle-emitting pharmaceutical (a radiopharmaceutical drug) is a ready-to-use solution for intravenous injection containing the drug substance radium dichloride. The active moiety is the alpha particle emitting nuclide Ra-223, present as a divalent cation (223Ra2+) and Abiraterone Acetate - A CYP17 inhibitor, indicated in combination with prednisone for the treatment of subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Administration of Abiraterone Acetate may result in mineralocorticoid-related adverse events (AEs), due to CYP17 inhibition. Therefore, Abiraterone Acetate is administered in combination with Prednisone to reduce the frequency of these AEs.
