12 Background: Patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and bone metastases (BM) may experience debilitating pain that impacts daily functioning and diminishes the quality of life. Previous results from a phase III trial demonstrated superiority of denosumab to ZA in delaying or preventing skeletal-related events (pathological fracture, radiation or surgery to the bone, spinal cord compression) in CRPC patients with BM. In this ad-hoc analysis, we present the results of denosumab or ZA therapy on pain interference (PI) and cancer specific quality of life (CSQoL), focusing on the subgroup of CRPC patients with no/mild pain at baseline. Methods: Men with CRPC and BM (no prior IV bisphosphonate use) were randomized to receive either SC denosumab 120 mg+IV placebo or SC placebo+IV ZA 4mg (adjusted for creatinine clearance) every four weeks. Patients were instructed to take calcium and vitamin D supplements. The Brief Pain Inventory–Short Form (BPI-SF) was used to assess PI. The pre-specified clinically meaningful time of a greater than or equal to two point increase from baseline in PI score (overall, physical, and emotional subdomains) was determined for CRPC patients receiving denosumab or ZA therapy. Patients also completed the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) questionnaire at baseline and each monthly visit to determine CSQoL scores. Declining FACT-G scores points to worsening CSQoL, where a greater than or equal to five point decrease is clinically meaningful. Results: Of the 1,901 patients enrolled (n=950, denosumab; n=951, ZA), 1,045 (55%) had no/mild pain at baseline. Compared with ZA, denosumab therapy delayed the time to a greater than or equal to two point increase from baseline in PI for the overall score (HR=0.83 [0.71, 0.98]; P=0.023), physical (HR=0.87 [0.75, 1.02]; P=0.077) and emotional (HR=0.83 [0.71, 0.97]; P=0.020) subdomains. Over a period of 18 months, more ZA-treated patients than denosumab-treated patients experienced a greater than or equal to five point decrease in FACT-G total scores (average relative difference=6.8%, range -9.4 to 14.6%) or worsening of CSQoL. Conclusions: Denosumab therapy significantly delayed the time to worsening of pain interference and maintained a higher overall CSQoL (FACT-G) compared to ZA in CRPC patients with BM.

TPS9150 Background: Skeletal related events (SREs) diminish quality of life (QOL) as well as overall survival (OS) in patients with bone metastases, a common event in breast, lung and prostate cancer. SREs can be reduced or delayed by the use of bisphosphonates. It is postulated that the radiopharmaceuticals, Strontium-89 (Sr89) and Samarium-153 (Sm153), when added to a bisphosphonate can decrease the incidence of SREs. Methods: RTOG 0517 randomized patients with breast, lung and prostate cancer and blastic bone metastases to either Zoledronic acid (ZA) alone or ZA plus a single standard dose of either Sr89 or Sm153. No limitations were placed on additional therapy such as chemotherapy or hormonal treatment. The projected median time to SRE [pathological bone fracture, spinal cord compression, surgery to bone, or radiation to bone] for the ZA arm was 10.4 months requiring 257 SRE events to detect a 33% relative reduction for the radiopharmaceutical arm in the time to development of an SRE with 90% power. Other study objectives included quality of life, pain control, OS and toxicity. Results: 261 patients (median age 68; 62% male; 55% prostate, 35% breast, 10% lung) were accrued from July 2006 through February 2011 (4.6 patients/month). Due to a lower than expected rate of SREs in the control (ZA) arm, the study was closed early and therefore did not reach the targeted accrual. 28 (17.4%) patients in the ZA arm and 27 (16.8%) in the radiopharmaceutical arm experienced an SRE. Median time to development of an SRE in the ZA and radiopharmaceutical arms was 11.60 and 16.74 months, respectively (p=.47). Median OS in the ZA arm and radiopharmaceutical arm was 15.95 and 11.18 months, respectively (p=0.12). Cox proportional hazards regression model showed that baseline characteristics, including gender, race, ethnicity, primary disease site or number of bone metastases, had no significant impact on OS. There was no difference in QOL parameters or toxicities between the two arms. Conclusion: Patients receiving ZA only experienced a much lower SRE rate than was hypothesized. The addition of Sr89 or Sm153 did not result in a difference in SREs, OS, or QOL

TPS5093 Background: Men with mCRPC often receive sequential NAH (abiraterone and enzalutamide) despite reported cross-resistance, indicating a need for further life-prolonging options for progressive disease after prior NAH. Ra-223 is a targeted alpha therapy approved for mCRPC with symptomatic bone metastases based on the phase 3 ALSYMPCA study, in which it demonstrated significantly increased overall survival (OS), reduced symptomatic skeletal event (SSE) risk, improved quality of life, and reduced treatment-emergent adverse event rates vs placebo. As life-prolonging therapy is increasingly used in hormone-sensitive settings, this study has been designed to assess Ra-223 outcomes in patients with mCRPC that progressed after prior treatment with NAH and docetaxel for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) or mCRPC. Methods: This study is conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, international ethical and good clinical practice guidelines, and local laws and regulations, with institutional review board/ethics committee approval at each site and written informed consent from patients before participation. This trial is registered with EudraCT: 2019-000476-42. Participants must be ≥18 years old, with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0/1; they must have mCRPC that progressed on/after ≥3 months of NAH for mHSPC or mCRPC and ≥2 cycles of docetaxel unless they refused or were ineligible, with ≥2 bone metastases on bone scan, no visceral metastases, and a worst pain score ≥1 on the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form. Patients are randomized 1:1 to Ra-223 or NAH: Ra-223 55 kBq/kg intravenously every 4 weeks for 6 cycles or until disease progression, death, or withdrawal of consent if earlier; or abiraterone 1000 mg + prednisone 10 mg daily (if prior enzalutamide) or enzalutamide 160 mg daily (if prior abiraterone) until disease progression, death, or withdrawal of consent. NAH dosing may be modified to manage adverse events. Patients must use luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogs, if not surgically castrated, and bone health agents (bisphosphonates or denosumab) throughout the study. The primary endpoint is OS. Secondary endpoints are time to first SSE, radiologic progression-free survival, time to pain progression, adverse events, fracture incidence, and time to deterioration in quality of life (FACT-P total score). Using a test with a two-sided alpha of 0.05, 90% power, and randomization ratio of 1:1, approximately 508 events are required to detect a 33% increase in OS with Ra-223 vs NAH, assuming a median OS of 10 months with NAH. The expected study duration is 55 months, with a target of 696 patients to be randomized. The first patient was enrolled on November 9, 2020; 5 patients have been randomized and 2 have started treatment to date. Clinical trial information: 2019-000476-42.

Purpose Cabazitaxel 25 mg/m2 (C25) significantly improved overall survival (OS) versus mitoxantrone ( P < .001) in postdocetaxel patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in the phase III TROPIC study. The phase III PROSELICA study ( ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01308580) assessed the noninferiority of cabazitaxel 20 mg/m2 (C20) versus C25 in postdocetaxel patients with mCRPC. Methods Patients were stratified by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, measurability of disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), and region, and randomly assigned to receive C20 or C25. To claim noninferiority of C20 (maintenance of ≥ 50% of the OS benefit of C25 v mitoxantrone in TROPIC) with 95% confidence level, the upper boundary of the CI of the hazard ratio (HR) for C20 versus C25 could not exceed 1.214 under a one-sided 98.89% CI after interim analyses. Secondary end points included progression-free survival, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), tumor and pain responses and progression, health-related quality of life, and safety. Results Overall, 1,200 patients were randomly assigned (C20, n = 598; C25, n = 602). Baseline characteristics were similar in both arms. Median OS was 13.4 months for C20 and 14.5 months for C25 (HR, 1.024). The upper boundary of the HR CI was 1.184 (less than the 1.214 noninferiority margin). Significant differences were observed in favor of C25 for PSA response (C20, 29.5%; C25, 42.9%; nominal P < .001) and time to PSA progression (median: C20, 5.7 months; C25, 6.8 months; HR for C20 v C25, 1.195; 95% CI, 1.025 to 1.393). Health-related quality of life did not differ between cohorts. Rates of grade 3 or 4 treatment-emergent adverse events were 39.7% for C20 and 54.5% for C25. Conclusion The efficacy of cabazitaxel in postdocetaxel patients with mCRPC was confirmed. The noninferiority end point was met; C20 maintained ≥ 50% of the OS benefit of C25 versus mitoxantrone in TROPIC. Secondary efficacy end points favored C25. Fewer adverse events were observed with C20.

IntroductionAbiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP) and enzalutamide (ENZ) are commonly prescribed for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Data comparing their effects on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) from routine clinical practice are limited.MethodsAQUARiUS (NCT02813408) is an ongoing, two-cohort, prospective, observational, non-randomised, multicentre, phase IV European study assessing the effects of AAP and ENZ on PROs in 211 patients with mCRPC over 12 months. Patients receive AAP or ENZ per routine clinical practice. Data on cognition, fatigue, pain and health-related quality of life are measured using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cognitive Function, Brief Fatigue Inventory-Short Form, Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life-C30 questionnaires, respectively.ResultsThis 3-month analysis was conducted in 105 patients; 46 received AAP and 59 received ENZ. There were statistically significant differences in mean change from baseline favouring AAP over ENZ at months 1, 2 and 3 for perceived cognitive impairments and cognitive functioning. At each time-point, ENZ-treated patients had a significantly higher risk of experiencing clinically meaningful worsening in perceived cognitive impairments versus those receiving AAP.Statistically significant differences in mean change from baseline favouring AAP over ENZ were seen for usual level of fatigue and fatigue interference at months 2 and 3 and for current fatigue and worse level of fatigue at month 3. Differences favouring AAP versus ENZ were seen for the fatigue scale of the QLQ-C30 questionnaire (months 1 and 3). There was a significantly higher risk of clinically meaningful worsening in usual level of fatigue with ENZ versus AAP at month 3.No significant differences between cohorts were observed for pain (BPI-SF) at any time-point.ConclusionThis analysis suggests more favourable outcomes with AAP versus ENZ for cognition and fatigue in the first 3 months of treatment initiation for mCRPC. These findings require confirmation from future analyses of data from AQUARiUS from a larger number of patients with a longer follow-up period.
