Docetaxel and PROSTVAC for Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer
Cuvinte cheie
Abstract
Descriere
Background:
- A phase III trial demonstrated that combining docetaxel and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) significantly improved survival (57.6 vs 44.0 months (HR=0.56, (0.44-0.70), p <0.0001) for men with metastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC).
- PROSTVAC (developed by the National Cancer Institute [NCI] and licensed to Bavarian Nordic Immunotherapeutics, Mountain View, CA) is a therapeutic cancer vaccine for prostate cancer.
- Preclinical and clinical studies support the potential synergy in the combination of docetaxel and PROSTVAC. The potential to combine docetaxel with vaccine in mCSPC could improve upon the survival advantage that has been previously seen.
Objectives:
Primary
-To determine if PROSTVAC combined with docetaxel is able to induce greater antigen spreading (i.e. a broader immune response) with greater associated response score compared to docetaxel alone after 19 weeks.
Key Eligibility Criteria:
- Must have castrate sensitive prostate cancer (rising PSA and testosterone over 100) or is within 134 days of starting ADT (Arm A or B) or within 28 days of start ADT (Arm C)
- Histopathological confirmation of prostate cancer
- Patients must have metastatic disease
- Patients must have a performance status of 0 to 2 according to the ECOG criteria
- Patients must have adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function
Design
- This is a randomized trial of ADT followed by simultaneous docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) q3 weeks x 6 cycles + PROSTVAC q3 weeks x 6 cycles versus ADT followed by sequential docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) q3 weeks x 6 cycles followed by PROSTVAC q3 weeks x 6 cycles in men with newly diagnosed mCSPC.
- Patients who have not started ADT or who have been on ADT 28 days or fewer will be assigned to treatment with PROSTVAC for 4 - 6 injections followed by docetaxel 75 mg/m2 q3 weeks x 6 cycles.

| Criterii | - INCLUSION CRITERIA: - Documented histopathological confirmation of prostate cancer-from a CLIA certified laboratory. - Patients must have metastatic disease, defined as at least one lesion on bone scan or at least one lesion that are measurable per RECIST 1.1. (Patients who have metastatic disease by these criteria prior to ADT, but then have changes after ADT that diminish the size of these lesions or changes on bone scan are still eligible.) - Patients must have a performance status of 0 to 2 according to the ECOG criteria - Patients must have adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function with: - ANC greater than or equal to 1500/microL, without CSF support - Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/microL - AST(SGOT) less than or equal to 2.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN); - ALT(SGPT) less than or equal to 2.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN); - Total serum bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN), OR in patients with Gilbert s syndrome, a total bilirubin less than or equal to 3.0) - Serum albumin greater than or equal to 2.8 g/dL - Lipase < 2.0 times the upper limit of normal and no radiologic or clinical evidence of pancreatitis - Creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 times institutional upper limits of normal OR Creatinine clearance of greater than or equal to 50 ml/min/1.73 m(2) for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal by 24-hour urine. - Willing to travel to the NIH for follow-up visits - 18 years of age or older. - Able to understand and sign informed consent. - May have had up to 24 months of ADT (testosterone suppression therapy in the nonmetastatic setting) and are at least 12 months removed from treatment - Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception, prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and 4 months after completion. Sexually active subjects and their female partners must agree to use medically accepted barrier methods of contraception (e.g., male or female condom) during the course of the study and for 4 months after the last dose of study drug(s), even if oral contraceptives are also used. All subjects of reproductive potential must also agree to use both a barrier method and a second method of birth control during the course on the study and for 4 months after the last dose of study drug(s). Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. - Must have started ADT for metastatic disease within 134 days (for Arm A and B) or within 28 days (for Arm C).
