ZK-Epo Given With Prednisone in Patients With Metastatic Androgen-independent Prostate Cancer
Phase 2 Study of ZK-Epothilone (ZK-Epo; ZK219477) Plus Prednisone as First-line Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Androgen-independent Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with a new drug called ZK-Epothilone (ZK-Epo) given with prednisone in patients with androgen-independent prostate cancer, who have not had previous chemotherapy, is safe and helps to decrease PSA (Prostate-specific antigen) levels.
