Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Male, aged >= 18 years; 2. Prostate cancer meets at least one of the following criteria: (1) Histological diagnosis of small cell or neuroendocrine prostate cancer; (2) Histological diagnosis of prostate cancer plus immunohistochemical staining for neuroendocrine markers (CHGA, SYP, CD56, or NSE) > 50%; 3. After 4 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy, disease status was evaluated every 2 cycles during the period, all of which were progressive or did not respond to platinum-based therapy. The evaluation criteria were as follows: (1) Progress: the serum PSA level was detected every 1 week, and the PSA level continued to increase for 3 consecutive times, which was more than 50% higher than the basic value; (2) Imaging progress: CT or MRI or PET/CT examination found that the original tumor lesion was enlarged compared with the previous examination, and the new tumor metastasis or the original tumor metastasis was found to be enlarged; 4. The ECOG score is 0-2; 5. Platelet count >= 75 x 10^9/L, PT duration = 3.5 x 10^9/L, neutrophils >= 1.7 x 10^9/L; 7. Liver function: ALT <= 2.5 x ULN, AST <= 2.5 x ULN 8. Renal function: serum creatinine <= 1.5 x ULN.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with uncorrected coagulopathy and obvious bleeding tendency; 2. Patients who need long-term anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy and cannot be stopped; 3. Patients with unstable or active ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding; 4. Patients with current heart disease which requires treatment or with hypertensive emergencies; 5. Patients with interstitial pneumonia; 6. Patients with a definite active infection; 7. Chemoradiotherapy for the study disease or other chemotherapy for the tumor was administered within 4 weeks before the start of the study; 8. Patients who are allergic to carbidopa or related preparations; 9. Patients with contraindications for the use of carbidopa and levodopa, such as severe cardiovascular diseases, hepatic and renal dysfunction, endocrine disorders, mental disorders, severe arrhythmias, heart failure, glaucoma, convulsions history, etc.; 10. Patients who receiving other concomitant antitumor therapy; 11. The investigator assessed that the patient was unable or unwilling to comply with the protocol.
