TPS258 Background: The mechanisms of action of pembro, a PD-1 inhibitor, and enza, an androgen receptor inhibitor, may be synergistic in the treatment of patients (pts) with mCRPC. The phase 1b/2 KEYNOTE-365 (NCT02861573) study showed antitumor activity with pembro + enza in pts with mCRPC pretreated with abiraterone acetate. A phase 2 study (NCT02312557) of enza-pretreated patients with mCRPC showed that some pts had a profound and durable anticancer response to pembro + enza. Methods: KEYNOTE-641 (NCT03834493) is a randomized, double-blind, phase 3 trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembro + enza versus placebo + enza in pts with mCRPC. An estimated 1200 patients will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive enza 160 mg/day + pembro 200 mg IV Q3W or enza 160 mg/day + placebo. Treatment will be stratified by prior abiraterone acetate treatment (yes/no), metastases location (bone only/liver/other), and prior docetaxel treatment for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (yes/no). Adults (≥18 years) with histologically or cytologically confirmed mCRPC who experienced biochemical or radiographic progression, ECOG PS 0/1, and adequate organ function are eligible. Pts will be required to provide tissue for biomarker analysis. Intolerance to or progression while receiving prior abiraterone acetate therapy is permitted, but not required. Prior chemotherapy for mCRPC, checkpoint inhibition, or any treatment with a second-generation androgen receptor inhibitor is prohibited. Responses will be assessed by CT/MRI and radionuclide bone imaging per PCWG3-modified RECIST v1.1 Q9W during the first year and Q12W thereafter. Treatment will continue until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal, with up to 2 years of pembro/placebo. Dual primary end points are OS and rPFS by blinded independent central review. Secondary end points are time to subsequent anticancer therapy or death, ORR, DOR, PSA response rate, PSA undetectable rate, time to PSA progression, time to pain progression, time to soft tissue progression, time to symptomatic skeletal-related event, and safety. Accrual began July 28, 2019. Clinical trial information: NCT03834493.

Phase III study of pembrolizumab (pembro) plus olaparib versus enzalutamide (enza) or abiraterone acetate (abi) in patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who progressed on chemotherapy: KEYLYNK-010.

TPS256 Background: Pembro, a PD-1 inhibitor, and olaparib, a PARP inhibitor, have some single-agent antitumor activity in mCRPC. The phase 1b/2 KEYNOTE-365 study (NCT02861573) showed promising activity with pembro and olaparib in pts with mCRPC unselected for homologous recombination deficiency, warranting further investigation. Methods: KEYLYNK-010 (NCT03834519) is a phase 3 trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembro + olaparib in molecularly unselected enza- or abi-pretreated pts with mCRPC who progressed with taxane chemotherapy. An estimated 780 pts will be randomly assigned 2:1 to receive pembro 200 mg IV every 3 wk plus olaparib 300 mg orally twice daily or abi 1000 mg orally once daily + prednisone/prednisolone 5 mg orally twice daily (enza-pretreated pts) or enza 160 mg/day orally (abi-pretreated pts). Stratification will be by prior treatment (abi/enza) and measurable disease (yes/no). Adults (≥18 y) with histologically confirmed mCRPC who progressed on androgen deprivation therapy ≤6 mo of screening, and an ECOG PS of 0 or 1 are eligible. Pts previously received either abi or enza (but not both) as well as 1 docetaxel-based regimen. Pts are required to provide tumor tissue for biomarker analysis. Responses will be assessed by CT/MRI and radionuclide bone imaging per Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3)–modified RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) every 9 wk during the first year and every 12 wk thereafter. Treatment will continue with up to 2 y of pembro (35 cycles) and olaparib or abi/enza until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal. Primary end points are OS and rPFS. Secondary end points are time to initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy; ORR, and DOR per PCWG3-modified RECIST v1.1 by BICR; time to PSA progression; time to first symptomatic skeletal event; time to radiographic soft tissue progression; time to pain progression; and safety. Exploratory end points are identification of molecular (genomic, metabolic, or proteomic) biomarkers indicative of response. Accrual began May 2, 2019. Clinical trial information: NCT03834519.

Phase III study of pembrolizumab (pembro) plus docetaxel and prednisone for enzalutamide (enza)- or abiraterone acetate (abi)–pretreated patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): KEYNOTE-921.

TPS262 Background: Docetaxel is an established treatment for pts with mCRPC. Pembro, a PD-1 inhibitor, showed single-agent antitumor activity in mCRPC. In the phase 1b/2 KEYNOTE-365 study (NCT02861573), docetaxel + pembro and prednisone showed activity in pts treated with abi or enza for mCRPC, warranting further evaluation. Methods: KEYNOTE-921 (NCT03834506) is a phase 3 trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembro + docetaxel and prednisone in chemotherapy-naive pts who progressed with enza or abi therapy for mCRPC. An estimated 1000 pts will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks (Q3W) + prednisone/prednisolone orally 5 mg twice daily (BID) and pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W or docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV Q3W + prednisone/prednisolone 5 mg orally BID + placebo IV Q3W. Treatment will be stratified by previous next-generation hormone agent (abi or enza) and metastases location (bone only, liver, other). Adults (≥18 years) with histologically or cytologically confirmed mCRPC who progressed with androgen deprivation therapy (or postbilateral orchiectomy) ≤6 months of screening, have ECOG PS 0 or 1, and have adequate organ function are eligible. Pts must have experienced either progression after ≥8 weeks (≥14 weeks for bone progression) or intolerance after ≥4 weeks of abi or enza (but not both) in a chemotherapy-naive mCRPC state. Pts will be required to provide tissue for biomarker analysis. Responses will be assessed by CT or MRI and radionuclide bone imaging per Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3)–modified RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) Q9W during the first year and Q12W thereafter. Treatment will continue with docetaxel and prednisone for up to 10 cycles and with pembro for up to 35 cycles or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal. Primary end points are rPFS by BICR and OS. Secondary end points are time to initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy or death, PSA response rate, time to PSA progression, ORR and DOR per PCWG3-modified RECIST v1.1 assessed by BICR, and safety. Accrual began May 2, 2019. Clinical trial information: NCT03834506.

Castration Resistant

Discoveries over the past decade suggest that castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is sensitive, but not resistant to, further manipulation of the androgen–androgen receptor (AR) axis. Several new therapies that target this axis have demonstrated clinical activity. In this article, preclinical and clinical findings occurring in the field of AR-targeted therapies are reviewed. Reviews of scientific and clinical development are divided into those occurring prereceptor (androgen production and conversion) and at the level of the receptor (AR aberrations and therapies targeting AR directly). Intracrine androgen production and AR amplification, among others, are among the principal aberrancies driving CRPC growth. Phase III data with abiraterone acetate and phase II data with MDV-3100, along with other similar therapies, confirm for the clinician that the scientific findings related to persistent AR signaling in a castrate milieu can be harnessed to produce significant clinical benefit for patients with the disease. Studies aimed at optimizing the timing of their use and exploring the mechanisms of resistance to these therapies are under way. The clinical success of therapies that directly target androgen synthesis as well as the most common aberrancies of the AR confirm that prostate cancer retains dependence on AR signaling, even in the castrate state.

5545 Background: Pembro + enza (cohort C) has shown antitumor activity and acceptable safety in abi-pretreated pts with mCRPC in the phase I/II KEYNOTE-365 study (NCT02861573). Updated results with new biomarker data from cohort C are reported. Methods: Pts who became intolerant to or for whom ≥4 weeks of abi failed in the prechemotherapy mCRPC state and who progressed within 6 mo of screening were enrolled. Pts received pembro 200 mg IV Q3W + enza 160 mg/day orally. Primary end points were PSA response rate (PSA decrease ≥50%; confirmed by a second value ≥3 weeks later), ORR per RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review, and safety. Key secondary end points were DCR per RECIST v1.1 (CR+PR+SD or non-CR/non-PD ≥6 mo), DOR per RECIST v1.1, radiographic PFS (rPFS) per PCWG-modified RECIST v1.1, and OS. Biospecimens (eg, blood, tissue) were collected at baseline and during the study for biomarker analysis, including tissue PD-L1 expression, androgen receptor variant 7 (AR-v7) expression in circulating tumor cells (CTCs), and a T-cell-inflamed gene expression profile (GEP). Results: Of 103 enrolled pts, 102 were treated; 39% of treated pts had measurable disease. Median (range) time from enrollment to data cutoff was 19.1 mo (1.1-28.8) for all pts and 21.4 mo (15.1-28.8) for pts with ≥27 wks’ follow-up (n=69). Confirmed PSA response rate was 22% in 101 pts with a baseline PSA assessment. Median time to PSA progression was 3.5 mo (95% CI, 2.9-4.0). In pts with measurable disease and ≥27 wks’ follow-up (n=25), confirmed ORR was 12% (2 CRs, 1 PR) and DCR was 32%. Median DOR was not reached (range, 0.0+ to 24.4+ mo); 2 pts had a response for ≥6 mo. In all pts, median (95% CI) rPFS was 6.1 mo (4.4-6.5) and median OS was 20.4 mo (15.5-NR). At 6 mo, rPFS rate was 55.1% and OS rate was 88.2%. Treatment-related AEs occurred in 92 pts (90%); most frequent (≥20%) were fatigue (38%), nausea (22%), and rash (20%). Grade 3-5 treatment-related AEs occurred in 40 pts (39%). Three pts died of AEs (1 AE was treatment related [cause unknown]). Of all pts, 29% had PD-L1+ tumors (combined positive score ≥1). Of 51 pts with AR-v7 data, 13.7% were AR-v7+ and 86.3% were AR-v7−. GEP was not significantly associated with ORR or PSA response. Conclusions: Pembro + enza continued to show activity in pts with abi-pretreated mCRPC. Safety of the combination was consistent with the known profiles of pembro and enza. A phase III study of this combination is ongoing (KEYNOTE-641, NCT03834493). Clinical trial information: NCT02861573 .

Despite recent advances, treatment options for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) progressing after next-generation hormonal agents (NHAs) are limited and provide only modest survival benefit. Thus, an unmet need remains for mCRPC patients after treatment with targeted endocrine therapy or NHA therapy. Pembrolizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody for PD-1, has been found to have activity as monotherapy in patients with mCRPC and as combination therapy in a Phase Ib/II study with docetaxel and prednisone/prednisolone for patients previously treated with enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate. The aim of the randomized, double-blind, Phase III KEYNOTE-921 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus docetaxel in patients with mCRPC who were previously treated with an NHA. Clinical trial registration: NCT03834506 ( ClinicalTrials.gov )

LBA3 Background: Pts with newly diagnosed mHNPC, particularly with high-risk characteristics, have a poor prognosis. ADT+docetaxel showed improved outcomes in mHNPC, but many pts are not candidates for docetaxel and may benefit from alternative therapy. AA+P is indicated for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer pts. LATITUDE evaluates clinical benefit of early intervention with AA+P added to ADT in newly diagnosed, high-risk mHNPC pts. Methods: 1199 pts with newly diagnosed (≤ 3 mos prior to randomization) mHNPC (ECOG PS 0-2) with ≥ 2 of 3 risk factors (Gleason ≥ 8, ≥ 3 bone lesions, measurable visceral metastases) were randomized 1:1 to ADT+AA (1 g QD) + P (5 mg QD) or ADT+PBOs of AA and P. Co-primary end points were overall survival (OS) and radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS). One rPFS (~565 events), 2 interim, and 1 final OS analyses (~426, ~554, and ~852 events) were planned. Results: At this first interim analysis (median follow-up of 30.4 mos; 406 deaths [48%]; 593 rPFS events), OS, rPFS, and all secondary end points significantly favored ADT+AA+P (Table). The IDMC unanimously recommended unblinding the study and crossing pts to ADT+AA+P. Grade 3/4 adverse events (ADT+AA+P vs ADT+PBOs) (%): hypertension (20.3 vs 10.0); hypokalemia (10.4 vs 1.3); increased ALT (5.5 vs 1.3) or AST (4.4 vs 1.5). Conclusions: Early use of AA+P added to ADT in pts with high-risk mHNPC yielded significantly improved OS, rPFS, and all secondary end points vs ADT+PBOs alone. ADT+AA+P had a favorable risk/benefit ratio and supports early intervention with AA+P in newly diagnosed, high-risk mHNPC. Clinical trial information: NCT01715285. [Table: see text]

PurposeAs part of the ENTHUSE (Endothelin A Use) program, the efficacy and safety of zibotentan (ZD4054), an oral specific endothelin A receptor antagonist, has been investigated in combination with docetaxel in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).Patients and MethodsIn this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III study, patients received intravenous docetaxel 75 mg/m2on day 1 of 21-day cycles plus oral zibotentan 10 mg or placebo once daily. The primary end point was overall survival (OS). Secondary end points included time to pain and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression, pain and PSA response, progression-free survival, health-related quality of life, and safety.ResultsA total of 1,052 patients received study treatment (docetaxel-zibotentan, n = 524; docetaxel-placebo, n = 528). At the time of data cutoff, there had been 277 and 280 deaths, respectively. There was no difference in OS for patients receiving docetaxel-zibotentan compared with those receiving docetaxel-placebo (hazard ratio, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.84 to 1.18; P = .963). No significant differences were observed on secondary end points, including time to pain progression (median 9.3 v 10.0 months, respectively) or pain response (odds ratio, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.61 to 1.16; P = .283). The median time to death was 20.0 and 19.2 months for the zibotentan and placebo groups, respectively. The most commonly reported adverse events in zibotentan-treated patients were peripheral edema (52.7%), diarrhea (35.4%), alopecia (33.9%), and nausea (33.3%).ConclusionDocetaxel plus zibotentan 10 mg/d did not result in a significant improvement in OS compared with docetaxel plus placebo in patients with metastatic CRPC.
