TPS390 Background: α-emitting radiopharmaceutical Ra-223 reduces the risk of death by 30% vs placebo in phase 3 ALSYMPCA (Parker et al. NEJM 2013). Ra-223’s favourable safety profile and lack of significant toxicity support combining it with other agents. The ALSYMPCA trial was developed to add Ra-223 on the contemporary standard of care that did not include last generation AR pathway inhibitors enzalutamide, one of the modern reference treatments for asymptomatic or moderately symptomatic metastatic CRPC (Gillessen et al. Eur Urol. 2017). In addition Ra-223 is registered in symptomatic prostate cancer (PCa), a very late stage of modern patient disease. There is thus a good rationale to combine Ra-223 to modern AR pathway inhibitors and to initiate the treatment in asymptomatic or moderately symptomatic patients. Methods: The EORTC 1333-GUCG study will run in 51 sites (21 activated) across 7 European countries, 4 sites in US and 12 sites in Canada. The study is an intergroup initiative between EORTC (Coordinating Group), UNICANCER; Cancer Trials Ireland (Ireland), ACCRU (The United States), and CUOG (Canada). A total of 560 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive enzalutamide 160 mg q.d. p.o. or enzalutamide at the same dose and Ra223 at 55 kBq/kg i.v. monthly for 6 months. Patients will be stratified by country, pain (BPI 0-1 vs BPI 2-3), prior docetaxel use (no vs yes) and use of bone targeting agents (no vs yes). The main inclusion criteria require asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic (defined as no opioids and BPI-SF question 3 < 4), metastatic to bone with ≥ 2 bone metastases with or without additional lymph node metastases. Visceral metastases are not allowed. The primary endpoint is radiological progression-free survival (rPFS1), according to PCWG3. Secondary endpoints include: overall survival, PCa specific survival, 1st symptomatic skeletal event (SSE), time to initiation of next systemic anti-neoplastic therapy, time to pain progression, health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L and BPI). Clinical trial information: NCT02194842.

Aim: Comparison of the efficacy/safety/health-related quality of life of apalutamide, enzalutamide and darolutamide in Phase III clinical trials involving patients with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer was performed. Materials & methods: Relevant studies were identified by searching PubMed as well as conference abstracts reporting updated overall survival. Three pivotal trials were identified, SPARTAN (apalutamide), PROSPER (enzalutamide) and ARAMIS (darolutamide), and form the basis of this analysis. Results: All three drugs significantly prolonged metastasis-free survival, prostate-specific antigen response and overall survival versus placebo, and were generally well tolerated. Conclusion: Drug selection will likely be influenced by tolerability/safety and other factors, such as the propensity for drug–drug interactions and the presence of comorbidities, that affect the risk–benefit balance in individual patients.

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.

The aim of this narrative review is to evaluate the current status of 177Lu-PSMA (prostate specific membrane antigen) therapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in the light of the current literature. We also addressed patient preparation, therapy administration and side effect profiles. 177Lu-PSMA therapy efficacy was assessed by using prospective trials, meta-analyses and major retrospective trials. Predictors of efficacy were also mentioned. Although there are some different approaches regarding the use of 177Lu-PSMA therapy in different countries, this type of therapy is generally safe, with a low toxicity profile. From the oncological point of view, a PSA (prostate specific antigen) decline of ≥50% was seen in 10.6–69% of patients with mCRPC; whereas progression-free survival (PFS) was reported to be 3–13.7 months in different studies. Consequently, 177Lu-PSMA therapy is a promising treatment in patients with mCRPC, with good clinical efficacy, even in heavily pretreated patients with multiple lines of systemic therapy. Currently, there are ongoing clinical trials in the United States, including a phase III multicenter FDA registration trial.

54 Background: A potential link between Health-Related Quality of life (HRQoL) and oncologic outcomes such as overall survival or progression-free survival has been underlined for endocrine therapies in patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Other surrogates such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs) or PSA can be used to evaluate disease control. This study explored the associations between HRQoL and biological biomarkers for patients with mCRPC treated by abiraterone / prednisone or prednisone within registration phase III trial COU-AA-301. Methods: Baseline differences of HRQoL evaluated with FACT-P total score (FACT-P TS) according to biological parameters (including CTCs and PSA) and links between HRQoL's change and variations of these parameters were assessed. The primary objective was to estimate the association between improvement or deterioration in FACT-P TS and the variations of CTCs and PSA. All analyses were conducted using clinically meaningful improvement and deterioration in FACT-P TS and subscales. Results: Among 1130 patients enrolled, 1111 (98.3%) had a baseline FACT-P TS available. At baseline, a favorable CTCs count was associated with higher FACT-P TS compared to unfavorable CTCs (difference in means 8 points, [95% CI, 4 to 12] p < 0.001). At 3 months, there were differences in mean change from baseline FACT-P TS favoring patients with biomarkers response, with clinically meaningful difference for CTCs (12.7 points, [95% CI, 6 to 19.5%] p < 0.001) and PSA (11.64 points, [95% CI, 9.3 to 14] p < 0.0001). Biological progression was associated with higher risk of FACT-P TS worsening for PSA (Odds Ratio (OR) 2.8 [95% CI, 1.9 to 4.2]) with more frequent FACT-P TS improvement in case of response for CTCs (OR 3.14 [95% CI, 1.3 to 7.7]) and PSA (OR 2.9 [95% CI 2.1 to 4]). Significantly longer time until definitive deterioration was observed for patients with CTCs or PSA response (p < 0.001) and shorter time in case of progression (p < 0.001). Conclusions: QUA-lify is the first study to show an association between HRQoL and biomarkers outcomes in patients with mCRPC treated with endocrine therapy in a post-taxane setting. This concept is reinforced by the consistency of the association for all analyses carried out.
