The aim of our study is to assess the efficacy and toxicity of a chemotherapy regimen combining carboplatin and etoposide in patients with metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer and neuro-endocrine differentiation. Eligible patients are treated with the combination of carboplatin AUC4 on day 1 and etoposide 100 mg/m2 on day 1, day 2 and day 3 repeated every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles. Efficacy endpoints include Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) and neuro-endocrine marker response (defined as a 50% or greater decrease from baseline serum values), objective response rate (according to RECIST criteria), and toxicity.
