Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of multiple doses of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone on the pharmacokinetics (study of what the body does to a drug) of single doses of dextromethorphan hydrobromide and theophylline in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Prostate Neoplasms Drug: Abiraterone acetate Drug: Prednisone Drug: Dextromethorphan hydrobromide Drug: Theophylline Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This is an open-label (identity of assigned study drug will be known) study of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in male patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. This study will consist of screening, treatment, and follow-up periods, and will have 2 study groups. Patients in Group A and B will receive daily abiraterone acetate (1000 mg) plus prednisone (5 mg) twice daily beginning on Cycle 1 Day 1 until disease progression. Patients in Group A will take dextromethorphan hydrobromide 30 mg administered orally once daily on Day -8 and Day 8 of Cycle 1. Patients in Group B will take theophylline 100 mg administered orally once daily on Day -8 and Day 8 of Cycle 1. Serial pharmacokinetic samples will be collected and safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Drug: Dextromethorphan hydrobromide
Dextromethorphan hydrobromide 30 mg capsules administered orally on Cycle 1 Day -8 and Cycle 1 Day 8 under fasting conditions

Experimental: Group B: abiraterone + prednisone + theophylline
Group B will assess the effect of multiple doses of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone on CYP1A2 using 2 single doses of theophylline as a probe drug.
Drug: Abiraterone acetate
Abiraterone acetate 1000 mg tablets administered orally once daily beginning on Cycle 1 Day 1 up to the time of disease progression

Drug: Prednisone
Prednisone 5mg tablets administered orally twice daily beginning on Cycle 1 Day 1 up to the time of disease progression

Drug: Theophylline
Theophylline 100 mg tablets administered orally on Cycle 1 Day -8 and Cycle 1 Day 8 under fasting conditions




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Ratio of the mean area under the concentration curve (AUC) of dextromethorphan, dextrorphan, and parent/metabolite, with and without co-administration of abiraterone acetate and prednisone [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 Day -8 and Day 8 ]
  2. Ratio of the mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of dextromethorphan, dextrorphan, and parent/metabolite, with and without co-administration of abiraterone acetate and prednisone [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 Day -8 and Day 8 ]
  3. Ratio of the mean area under the concentration curve (AUC) of theophylline with and without co-administration of abiraterone acetate and prednisone [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 Day -8 and Day 8 ]
  4. Ratio of the mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of theophylline with and without co-administration of abiraterone acetate and prednisone [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 Day -8 and Day 8 ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of participants reporting adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug ]
