Clinical Trial Summary

This clinical trial will evaluate the safety of Radium-223 in combination with 177Lu-PSMA-I&T in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: Phase I/II study

Description:

This prospective, single-centre, single-arm, open label, phase I/II trial will assess and establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Radium-223 in combination with 177Lu-PSMA-I&T in patients with mCRPC. 36 men with mCRPC who have progressed on second-generation AR antagonist will be enrolled in this trial in two stages: dose escalation and a dose expansion phase over a period of 24 months.

• Prior treatment with 223Ra or 177Lu-PSMA.
• Has received more than one previous line of chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer.
• Sites of discordant FDG-positive disease defined by minimal PSMA-expression and no uptake on WBBS (for bone metastases).
• Other malignancies within the previous 2 years other than basal cell or squamous cell carcinomas of skin or other cancers that are unlikely to recur within 24 months.
• Symptomatic brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases.
• Patients with symptomatic or impending cord compression unless appropriately treated beforehand and clinically stable for = four weeks.
• Concurrent illness, including severe infection that may jeopardise the ability of the patient to undergo the procedures outlined in this protocol with reasonable safety.

Intervention

Drug:
• Lutetium-177 PSMA-I&T

• Radium-223
During dose escalation, doses of Radium-223 that will be administered include 27.5 kBq/kg and 55 kBq/kg. The maximum tolerated dose of Radium-223 will be used during dose expansion. Radium-223 will be given once every 6 weeks for up to 6 doses between day 1-5 of each Cycle.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Dose Limiting toxicities (DLTs)	A DLT is defined as a toxicity that prevents further administration of the trial treatment at that dose level.; Each cohort of 3 patients be assessed for DLTs in the first 6 weeks (cycle 1) of treatment and a dose for the next cohort will be determined.	Dose escalation phase is expected to be completed 6 months from the time the first patient is recruited.
Primary	Maximum Tolerated dose (MTD)	The MTD is defined as the highest dose level at which the incidence of DLT was less than 2/6.	Dose escalation phase is expected to be completed 6 months from the time the first patient is recruited.
Primary	Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)	After the MTD is established, additional patients will be treated at the MTD. Safety and efficacy data from the study will be used to define the RP2D.	Up to 30 months from the time the first patient is recruited.
Primary	50% Prostate-Specific Antigen Response Rate (PSA-RR)	PSA will be assessed at baseline and every 3 weeks from cycle 1 day 1. PSA response will be defined as a 50% or greater decrease in PSA from baseline to the lowest post-baseline PSA result. A second consecutive value obtained 3 or more weeks later is required to confirm the PSA response.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events measured using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v5.0	Safety of the combination will be measured by AEs and SAEs.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	Radiographic Progression-Free Survival (rPFS)	rPFS is defined as the time from treatment initiation to the first date of documented radiographic progression using conventional imaging or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. The radiographic progression will be assessed by the investigator per RECIST1.1 for soft tissue and PCWG3 for bone lesions.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	PSA progression free survival (PSA-PFS)	PSA-PFS is defined as the time from treatment initiation to the date of PSA progression per PCWG3 or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. The date of PSA progression is the date that an increase of 25% or more and an absolute increase of 2ng/mL or more from the nadir is documented. For patients who have an initial PSA decline during treatment, this must be confirmed by a second value 3 or more weeks later.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	Overall survival (OS)	OS is defined as the time from treatment initiation to the date of death due to any cause.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	Objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST1.1 in patients with measurable disease	Objective Response (OR) is only applicable for the subset of patients with measurable disease by RECIST1.1. OR is defined as a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) at any stage from time of commencement of protocol treatment to the time of subsequent systemic anti-cancer treatment. The ORR is calculated as the proportion of patients with a best response of CR or PR.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	Progression Free Survival (PFS)	Time from randomisation to the date of PSA progression, or radiographic progression (PCWG3 for bone and RECIST 1.1 for soft tissue), or death.	Through study completion, up until 12 months after the last patient commences treatment
Secondary	Describe pain within 12 months of treatment commencement	Pain will be assessed using the Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPI-SF). The primary endpoint for pain is the area under the curve (AUC) of the worst pain in 24h.; Pain and QoL will be assessed at baseline, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months and will be scored according to the respective manuals.	Through completion of 12 months after treatment commencement of last patient
Secondary	Describe health-related QoL within 12 months of treatment commencement	QoL will be assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Prostate Cancer (FACT-P) questionnaire. The primary endpoint for QoL is the area under the curve (AUC) of the trial outcome index (TOI).; QoL will be assessed at baseline, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months and will be scored according to the respective manuals.	Through completion of 12 months after treatment commencement of last patient
