Randomized Phase II Trial of Targeted Radiation With no Castration for Mcrpc

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This trial tests if the combination of comprehensive metastasis directed therapy delivered by a precision form of external beam radiotherapy (stereotactic ablative radiotherapy), combined with PSMA targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy and cessation of castration, and then followed by testosterone replacement, is an effective treatment for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. All patients will be treated with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy and PSMA targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy with cessation of castration. Half of patients are randomized to either receive, or not receive, subsequent testosterone replacement.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:MALE
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:Yes
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Subject must be 18 years of age or older at the time the Informed Consent is signed
  2. * The subject (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) must provide written informed consent for the trial
  3. * Pathologic diagnosis of prostate cancer of adenocarcinoma histology; presence small cell/neuroendocrine carcinoma is exclusionary
  4. * Metastatic disease as documented by:
  5. * Osseous metastases detected by technetium-99m (99mTc) planar bone scan or NaF PET scan, or CT scan at some point in patient's history
  6. * Soft tissue metastases documented on CT or MRI
  7. * PSMA avid metastatic disease as determined by 18F-DCFPyL: at least one lesion with PSMA avidity greater than that of liver (see Prescribing Information for Pluvicto)
  8. * Progressive castration resistant prostate cancer as defined by serum testosterone \< 50 ng/mL and one of the following:
  9. * PSA progression confirmed per Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group (PCWG3)
  10. * Radiographic progression of soft tissues according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) modified based on PCWG3, or radiographic progression of bone according to PCWG3
  11. * Prior use of a novel AR signaling inhibitor for 4 weeks, including abiraterone acetate plus prednisone/prednisolone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, and/or darolutamide
  12. * ECOG PS grade of 0-2
  13. * 10 metastases detectable on molecular imaging (PSMA and FDG PET) and amenable to SBRT
  14. * 20% of metastases that are FDG avid but PSMA negative
  15. * Metastases that are not detectable on PSMA and FDG PET do not count toward the total number of metastases, as they are presumed to represent adequately treated sites of disease
  16. * Life expectancy 6 months
  17. * Adequate organ function:
  18. * Hemoglobin (hgb) \> 8.0 g/dL
  19. * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \> 1500/ µL
  20. * Platelets \> 75,000/ µL
  21. * Total bilirubin 1.5 x ULN OR direct bilirubin ULN for participants with total bilirubin levels \>1.5 x ULN
  22. * ALT and AST 3.0 x ULN ( 5 x ULN for participants with liver metastases) (Child-Pugh class A and B allowed; Child-Pugh class C is excluded)
  23. * Creatinine \< (2.0 mg/dL) during screening evaluation (\>2.0 is allowed if EGFR \>30 mL/min/1.73 m2)
  24. * Subject must agree to use contraception during the treatment period plus an additional 120 days after the last dose of study treatment and must refrain from donating sperm during this period
  1. * Visceral metastases including liver and brain (lung metastases are allowed)
  2. * Small cell/neuroendocrine carcinoma by hematoxylin and eosin light histology (immunohistochemical detection of rare/occasional cells that stain for neuroendocrine markers such as synaptophysin, neuron specific enolase, or chromogranin A is not sufficient to make a diagnosis of small cell/neuroendocrine carcinoma)
  3. * Anti-neoplastic therapies for prostate cancer must be completed \> 2 weeks prior to Day 1 (initiation of first dose of PSMA RLT)
  4. * Investigational agents must have been completed \> 4 weeks of Day 1
  5. * Participants with Grade 2 neuropathy may be eligible
  6. * Herbal and non-herbal products that may decrease PSA levels other than medical castration and megestrol (up to 40 mg/day is allowed) for hot flashes
  7. * Has received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of start of study treatment. Participants must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities, not require corticosteroids, and not have had radiation pneumonitis
  8. * If a subject has undergone major surgery, they must have recovered adequately from the toxicities or complications from the intervention within 4 weeks prior to starting therapy
  9. * History of non-prostate active malignancy requiring treatment in the 24 months prior to Day 1 except for non-muscle invasive urothelial cancer, non-melanoma skin cancer, or any cancer that in the opinion of the investigator has been adequately treated and will not interfere with study procedures or interpretation of results
  10. * Active infection or conditions requiring treatment with antibiotics
  11. * Symptomatic local recurrence in the setting of prior curative intent therapy (surgery and/or radiation to the prostate)
  12. * Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator
  13. * Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial
  14. * Subject is planning to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment
  15. * Current or impending cord compression or another indication for urgent palliative radiation therapy
