Brief summary

This aim of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of elesclomol sodium at escalating doses (ultimately identifying the maximum tolerated dose) when combined with a fixed dose of docetaxel and concomitant prednisone. This study will also characterize the pharmacokinetics of elesclomol and docetaxel.
