Arm Description
docetaxel chemotherapy + modafinil 100 mg capsules
docetaxel chemotherapy + placebo (lactose) capsules (matched to modafinil drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Fatigue scores daily assessed using the 11-point (0-10) 0 is the lower score and 10 is the highest. this score is calculated using the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory
Secondary Outcome Measures
Patient quality of life weekly assessed by using the self-administered Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) Quality Of Life survey
Fatigue assessed by using the self-administered six-item somatic subscale (SOMA) of the Somatic and Psychological Health Report (SPHERE) questionnaire
Sleep quality assessed by using the self-administered Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire
Functional status will be determined using the self-administered Medical Outcomes Study - Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)
Depression assessed using seven depression-related questions from the self-administered Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) assessment subscale. Patient with depression will be defined as having the HAD-D> or = 8

Brief Summary
The primary objective is:
To determine the efficacy of modafinil in the reduction of fatigue in patients with metastatic breast or prostate cancer undergoing docetaxel-based chemotherapy
The secondary objectives are:
To determine the effect of modafinil on quality of life (QoL) during docetaxel-based chemotherapy
To determine the effect of modafinil on patients physical activity level, functional status, number of chemotherapy cycles tolerated, sleep disturbance and depression, during docetaxel-based chemotherapy
To investigate the impact of tumour type, patient physical activity level, functional status, sleep disturbance and depression on the efficacy of modafinil at improving fatigue and quality of life during docetaxel-based chemotherapy.
To determine the safety and tolerability of modafinil during docetaxel-based chemotherapy
