Inclusion Criteria

* Histologic diagnosis (recent or remote) of prostate adenocarcinoma

* Platelet count \> 150,000/mm3
* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 2,000/mm3
* Normal coagulation profile (defined as PT or INR and PTT \< 1.3x ULN), unless on a stable anticoagulation regimen
* Hematocrit \> 27% or Hemoglobin \> 9 g/dL without blood transfusion dependency
* Patients of child bearing potential must agree to use an effective method of contraception
* Patient must have progressed following discontinuation of anti-androgen therapy, if received
* Serum testosterone \< 50 ng/ml

* Age \< 21 y.o
* Other serious illness(es) involving the cardiac, respiratory, CNS, renal, hepatic or hematological organ systems which might preclude completion of this study or interfere with determination of causality of any adverse effects experienced in this study
* Prior treatment with monoclonal Ab J591 labeled with therapeutic doses of 177Lu or 90Y
