139 Background: DN given q4w has shown superiority in delaying skeletal related events over q4w zoledronic acid (ZA). Recently it has been demonstrated that ZA q12w is non-inferior to ZA q4w. The objective of REDUSE is to show non-inferiority for DN q12w versus q4w in terms of SSE. Here we present an interim analysis for the secondary endpoint HC. Methods: Patients (pts) with castration resistant prostate cancer (planned N=690) were randomized 1:1 to DN q4w (Arm A) vs q12w (Arm B) after a 16 week induction phase with application q4w. All pts received vitamin D (ViD) 400 U and calcium (Ca) 500 mg daily. Measurement of corrected serum-Ca was mandatory before each DN injection. This interim analysis was performed after 3.5 years of accrual. Men who received ≥ 1 dose of DN were considered evaluable. Results: 383 pts were evaluable. HC occurred in 28.7% during the first 16 weeks (DN q4w for all pts) and 30.2% afterwards. After the induction phase HC occurred in 40.2% in Arm A and in 20.3% in Arm B. Grade 3 (2.1%) and 4 (1.1%) HC were rare, most frequently occurring in the first 16 weeks. After 1 year of treatment, the incidence of HC was lower in both arms (A: 30.8%, B: 18.7%). A clinically relevant difference for HC was noted between the two arms after the induction phase (table). Conclusions: In our trial nearly 30% of all men treated with DN experienced HC in the q4w induction phase despite mandatory supplementation of calcium and ViD and measurement of Ca. This rate was considerably higher than reported in the registration trials of DN (13%). After induction treatment the incidence of HC is considerably lower in the q12w arm compared to q4w. This suggests that DN given q12w has a more favorable long time toxicity profile (HC) compared to DN q4w. Change in HC grade after week 16 (week 1 – 12: DN q4w Arm A+B), thereafter q4w in Arm A and q12w in Arm B. Clinical trial information: NCT02051218. [Table: see text]

Bone health represents a major issue in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients with bone metastases; in fact, the frequently prolonged use of hormonal agents causes important modifications in physiological bone turnover and most of these men will develop skeletal-related events (SREs), including spinal cord compression, pathologic fractures and need for surgery or radiation to bone, which are estimated to occur in almost half of this patient population. In the last decade, several novel therapeutic options have entered into clinical practice of bone metastatic CRPC, with recent approval of enzalutamide and abiraterone acetate, cabazitaxel chemotherapy and radium-223, on the basis of survival benefit suggested by landmark Phase III trials assessing these agents in this setting. Conversely, although bone-targeted agents (BTAs)—such as the bisphosphonate zoledronic acid and the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (RANK) ligand inhibitor denosumab—are approved for the prevention of SREs, these compounds have not shown benefit in terms of overall survival. However, emerging evidence has suggested that the combination of BTAs and abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide and the radiopharmaceutical radium-223 could result in improved clinical outcomes and prolonged survival in bone metastatic CRPC. In this review, we will provide an overview on bone tropism of prostate cancer and on the role of BTAs in metastatic hormone-sensitive and castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Purpose We evaluated angiogenesis-targeted sunitinib therapy in a randomized, double-blind trial of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Patients and Methods Men with progressive mCRPC after docetaxel-based chemotherapy were randomly assigned 2:1 to receive sunitinib 37.5 mg/d continuously or placebo. Patients also received oral prednisone 5 mg twice daily. The primary end point was overall survival (OS); secondary end points included progression-free survival (PFS). Two interim analyses were planned. Results Overall, 873 patients were randomly assigned to receive sunitinib (n = 584) or placebo (n = 289). The independent data monitoring committee stopped the study for futility after the second interim analysis. After a median overall follow-up of 8.7 months, median OS was 13.1 months and 11.8 months for sunitinib and placebo, respectively (hazard ratio [HR], 0.914; 95% CI, 0.762 to 1.097; stratified log-rank test, P = .168). PFS was significantly improved in the sunitinib arm (median 5.6 v 4.1 months; HR, 0.725; 95% CI, 0.591 to 0.890; stratified log-rank test, P < .001). Toxicity and rates of discontinuations because of adverse events (AEs; 27% v 7%) were greater with sunitinib than placebo. The most common treatment-related grade 3/4 AEs were fatigue (9% v 1%), asthenia (8% v 2%), and hand–foot syndrome (7% v 0%). Frequent treatment-emergent grade 3/4 hematologic abnormalities were lymphopenia (20% v 11%), anemia (9% v 8%), and neutropenia (6% v < 1%). Conclusion The addition of sunitinib to prednisone did not improve OS compared with placebo in docetaxel-refractory mCRPC. The role of antiangiogenic therapy in mCRPC remains investigational.

IntroductionEnzalutamide, apalutamide, and darolutamide have all been approved by Food and Drug Administration to treat high-risk non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) since 2018 based on interim results of several phase III clinical trials. Final analyses of long-term overall survival (OS) and adverse events (AEs) results of these trials have been successively published recently. To help clinical practice to precisely select optimal treatment for high-risk nmCRPC patients, we performed a network meta-analysis to indirectly compare the final long-term results among these medications.MethodsPubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Libraries were searched for phase III clinical trial that reports OS and AEs results in nmCRPC patients published before January 30, 2021. Primary outcome was OS; secondary outcomes were Time to first chemotherapy, Subsequent antineoplastic therapy rate, and AEs. Firstly, class-level effect was assessed as the second-generation androgen receptor antagonists (SGARAs) were regarded as one whole class compared with placebo through traditional meta-analysis by using Revman 5.4, then a Bayesian network meta-analysis was conducted to give indirect comparison among SGARAs by using R 3.5.3 software. Subgroup analysis of OS was only conducted in the certain subgroups which were available in all included studies.ResultsThree eligible studies including 4,104 participants were finally selected. OS was significantly improved by the SGARAs as a class compared with placebo (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.66–0.84). Darolutamide had the highest likelihood of providing best OS (p-score=0.802). SGARAs also significantly delayed the first time to chemotherapy (HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.50–0.66). Patients who received darolutamide experienced similar toxicity compared with placebo regarding AEs of grade 3 or higher (OR, 1.3; 95% CI, 1.0–1.7) and serious AEs (OR, 1.3; 95% CI, 0.99–1.6). When compared with darolutamide, enzalutamide caused significantly higher toxicity in terms of any AEs (OR, 2.3; 95% CI,1.5–3.7) and AEs of grade 3 or higher (OR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.1–2.2), apalutamide caused significantly more AEs of grade 3 or higher (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.4–2.7) and serious AEs (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.3–2.8). Subgroup analysis showed that SGARAs as a group significantly improved OS in ECOG=1 population, although insignificant results were found in these patients from included studies.ConclusionsSGARAs combined with ADT significantly improved OS when compared with ADT alone in high-risk nmCRPC patients. Darolutamide may not only provide best OS but also have the most favorable safety profile among the included SGARAs in high-risk nmCRPC patients.

Purpose Ipilimumab increases antitumor T-cell responses by binding to cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4. We evaluated treatment with ipilimumab in asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic patients with chemotherapy-naive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer without visceral metastases. Patients and Methods In this multicenter, double-blind, phase III trial, patients were randomly assigned (2:1) to ipilimumab 10 mg/kg or placebo every 3 weeks for up to four doses. Ipilimumab 10 mg/kg or placebo maintenance therapy was administered to nonprogressing patients every 3 months. The primary end point was overall survival (OS). Results Four hundred patients were randomly assigned to ipilimumab and 202 to placebo; 399 were treated with ipilimumab and 199 with placebo. Median OS was 28.7 months (95% CI, 24.5 to 32.5 months) in the ipilimumab arm versus 29.7 months (95% CI, 26.1 to 34.2 months) in the placebo arm (hazard ratio, 1.11; 95.87% CI, 0.88 to 1.39; P = .3667). Median progression-free survival was 5.6 months in the ipilimumab arm versus 3.8 with placebo arm (hazard ratio, 0.67; 95.87% CI, 0.55 to 0.81). Exploratory analyses showed a higher prostate-specific antigen response rate with ipilimumab (23%) than with placebo (8%). Diarrhea (15%) was the only grade 3 to 4 treatment-related adverse event (AE) reported in ≥ 10% of ipilimumab-treated patients. Nine (2%) deaths occurred in the ipilimumab arm due to treatment-related AEs; no deaths occurred in the placebo arm. Immune-related grade 3 to 4 AEs occurred in 31% and 2% of patients, respectively. Conclusion Ipilimumab did not improve OS in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The observed increases in progression-free survival and prostate-specific antigen response rates suggest antitumor activity in a patient subset.

5034 Background: Alterations in DNA damage repair (DDR) genes are common in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and are implicated in responses to carboplatin [carbo], PARP inhibitors and immunotherapeutics. Inhibitors of the ATR kinase, which is involved in the DDR response, have been demonstrated to have synergistic activity with platinum compounds in preclinical models. We therefore conducted a phase 2 study of the ATR inhibitor berzosertib [berzo]+carbo vs. docetaxel [doce]+carbo in mCRPC. Methods: Patients (pts) previously treated with at least one secondary hormonal therapy and taxane underwent mandatory pre-treatment biopsy and were randomized 1:1 to receive Arm A (doce 60 mg/m2 day 1 + carbo AUC 4 day 1) or Arm B (berzo 90 mg/m2 days 2,9 + carbo AUC 5 day 1) every 21 days. Pts randomized to Arm A who were not candidates for doce received carbo AUC 5 monotherapy. Stratification factors were 1) prior PARP inhibitor (yes vs. no) and 2) evaluable disease by RECIST 1.1 (yes vs. no). Pts on Arm A crossed over to Arm B (berzo+carbo) at the earlier of PSA or radiographic progression. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR; PSA reduction by ≥ 50% or radiographic response by RECIST 1.1). Secondary endpoints included time to PSA progression, radiographic PFS (rPFS), PFS by PCWG3 criteria, and adverse events (AEs) in each arm. Planned enrollment was 136 pts (for 130 to be treated), with interim analysis for futility after 65 pts were treated. Results: 73 pts were randomized between 6/2019 and 7/2020; 34 pts were treated on Arm A (26 carbo+doce; 8 carbo alone) and 31 on Arm B. Median number of prior systemic therapies (excluding ADT, 5α-reductase inhibitors, 1st generation antiandrogens) was 4 (range 2-8). Median treatment duration was 3 cycles, and 4 pts in each arm discontinued for AEs. Grade 3 or higher treatment-related AEs (TrAE) were seen in 13(38%) pts in Arm A and 21(68%) in Arm B. Pts in Arm B had greater frequency of grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia (8[26%] vs. 3[9%]). 1 pt in Arm B had grade 5 sepsis attributed to study treatment. ORR was 15% in Arm A (5/34; 5/26[19%] in pts who received carbo+doce) and 0% in Arm B (0/31). 14 pts in Arm A crossed over, with no subsequent responses seen. Median rPFS was 2.1(95% CI:2.0,3.2) mo in Arm A and 2.4(1.9,4.2) mo in Arm B. At planned interim analysis, trial enrollment and crossover to Arm B were halted due to futility. Conclusions: Carbo+berzo led to fewer overall responses and a higher rate of grade 3 or higher TrAEs compared to carbo+doce. All responses seen were in pts who received carbo+doce despite requirement for prior progression on taxane, suggesting that this combination is favored over carbo+berzo or carbo monotherapy in a heavily pre-treated biomarker-unselected population. Extensive genetic and molecular studies for DDR assessment from tissue and cfDNA are in progress. Clinical trial information: NCT03517969.

The management of men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) has taken several leaps forwards in the last two years, with the demonstration of improved overall survival with three novel agents (sipuleucel-T, cabazitaxel and abiraterone acetate) and a significant delay in skeletal-related events observed with denosumab. The pipeline of systemic therapies in prostate cancer remains strong, as multiple agents with a diverse array of mechanisms of action are demonstrating preliminary signs of clinical benefit, leading to more definitive Phase III confirmatory trials. In this review, we will discuss the evolving landscape of treatment options for men with CRPC, with a particular focus on currently approved and emerging treatment options for these patients. Knowledge of these evolving standards will help to optimise delivery of care and long-term outcomes in men with advanced CRPC.
