               -  AST ≤ 1.5 x ULN for Cabazitaxel

               -  creatinine clearance-no minimum for Docetaxel

               -  creatinine clearance- ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 for Cabazitaxel

          7. No evidence of clinical progression, in the form of increased lesions on
             cross-sectional imaging, or new cancer-attributable symptoms or worsening of existing
             symptoms

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. Patients who have residual toxicities > Grade 2 attributed to taxane therapy, except
             for neuropathy, who are excluded if > grade 1

             CYP3A4 are ineligible

          5. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active
             infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac
             arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with
             study requirements.

          6. Received more than 10 cycles of docetaxel [for docetaxel cohort only] or 6 of
             cabazitaxel [for cabazitaxel cohort only]

          7. Last docetaxel or cabazitaxel dose > 6 weeks prior to enrollment

          8. Patients with a documented history of QT prolongation or ventricular cardiac
             arrhythmia, including torsades de pointes, or taking drugs that are known to prolong
