| Eligibility |
Eligibility Criteria Approximately 26-38 patients with prostate cancer will be enrolled in
this study. This includes 6-18 patients in the Phase I de-escalation cohort with metastatic
or nonmetastatic castration resistant prostate cancer, and 20 patients in the Phase II
neoadjuvant cohort with high risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer that has
PI3K pathway activation.
- For the Phase I de-escalation cohort, the patient must have castration resistant
prostate cancer (metastatic or non-metastatic), as defined by PCWG3.
- For the Phase II neoadjuvant cohort, the patient must be a candidate for radical
prostatectomy at the time of enrollment and be planning to undergo this procedure. The
patient must have a histologically-confirmed diagnosis of localized, untreated
prostate cancer with high risk features and must have sufficient archival tissue (at
least 2 cores) available for targeted sequencing and immunohistochemistry (IHC). The
tumor must have PI3K pathway activation. This can be determined by IHC, in which case
at least 50% of the tumor tissue evaluated must be negative for PTEN expression by
immunohistochemistry on local review. Alternatively, qualifying alteration in PTEN,
PIK3CA, or AKT1 on next generation sequencing (NGS) is also acceptable to be eligible,
regardless of PTEN expression. If the patient qualifies based on NGS results, IHC must
still be performed.
- Qualifying mutations include changes in AKT1 at residues E17, L52, or Q79; in
PIK3CA at residues R88, G106, K111, G118, N345, E542, E545, Q546, M1043, H1047,
or G1049; in PTEN a R130Q/C/H substitution or a deletion, frameshift, or
introduction of early stop codon. The assay must be a CLIA-certified assay, and a
copy of the report must be provided.
