Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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
