150 Background: This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of docetaxel and androgen receptor axis-targeted (ARAT) agents in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients with intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P). Methods: We retrospectively identified 311 CRPC patients from June 2002 to February 2016. All patients were initially administered with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), followed by docetaxel or ARAT (abiraterone or enzalutamide) after progressing to CRPC. The primary outcome of interest was overall survival (OS) from the time of CRPC diagnosis and progression-free survival (PFS) from the time of administration of docetaxel or ARAT. Results: IDC-P was found in 180 of 311 patients. The median OS was 33.4 and 64.0 months with and without IDC-P, respectively (hazards ratio [HR], 2.14; P < 0.001). For the first treatment for CRPC, docetaxel was administered to 71 and 50 patients with and without IDC-P, respectively, with a median OS of 30.4 and 64.0 months, respectively (HR, 2.62; P < 0.001). ARAT was administered to 109 and 81 patients with and without IDC-P, respectively, with a median OS of 45.0 and 69.9 months, respectively (HR, 1.84; P = 0.017). Regarding patients with IDC-P, the OS in patients who were administered with ARAT was longer than that in those administered with docetaxel (HR, 0.58; P = 0.008). The median PFS was 7.5 and 12.1 months with and without IDC-P, respectively (HR, 1.36; P = 0.03). Multivariate analysis showed that the prognostic factors for OS were the presence of IDC-P (HR, 1.91; P < 0.001), and administration of ARAT (HR, 0.66; P = 0.02). Conclusions: The presence of IDC-P is an independent prognostic factor for OS and PFS in CRPC patients. ARAT may prolong OS in CRPC patients with IDC-P.

No evidence was found on the treatment sequences of androgen receptor–targeted agents in patients with castration-sensitive prostate cancer. Evidence from retrospective studies, including those within a systematic review, suggests that sequential treatment of abiraterone followed by enzalutamide is more favourable than enzalutamide followed by abiraterone in improving clinical outcomes such as response rate and progression-free survival, but not overall survival, in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Evidence from a retrospective study suggests that docetaxel-containing treatment sequences with androgen receptor–targeted agents may improve progression-free survival compared to sequential therapy with androgen receptor–targeted agents alone in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Evidence from a retrospective study did not reveal differences in clinical outcomes of patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with sequential androgen receptor–targeted agents with or without interposed chemotherapy or radium-223. These findings were in line with those observed in a 2019 CADTH report.1 However, the findings should be interpreted with caution due to low-quality evidence. No comparative cost-effectiveness studies were identified.

Abstract BackgroundTo explore whether patients with distinct intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) subtypes respond differently to standard first-line therapy among patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed data of 170 mCRPC patients receiving abiraterone (ABI) or docetaxel (DOC) as first-line therapy between 2014 and 2019. PSA response, PSA progression-free survival (PSA-PFS), radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS), and overall survival (OS) were analyzed and compared based on the presence of IDC-P and its sub-patterns.ResultsTotally, IDC-P was confirmed in 91/170 (53.5%) patients. Among them, 36/91 (39.6%) and 55/91 (60.4%) harbored IDC-P pattern 1 and pattern 2, respectively. The presence of IDC-P was confirmed to be associated with poor prognosis in the whole cohort. Patients with IDC-P pattern 1 shared similar clinical outcomes to those without IDC-P in both ABI and DOC treatment. However, compared to patients with IDC-P pattern 1 and without IDC-P, IDC-P pattern 2 had markedly poorer prognosis in either ABI (PSA-PFS: P<0.001; rPFS: P<0.001) or DOC (PSA-PFS: P<0.001; rPFS: P<0.001) treatment. For patients without IDC-P, DOC had comparable therapeutic efficacy with ABI. In contrast, the therapeutic efficacy of DOC in patients with either IDCP pattern 1 (PSA-PFS: P=0.021; rPFS: P=0.027) or pattern 2 (PSA-PFS: P=0.003; rPFS: P=0.007) was significantly inferior to ABI.ConclusionCompared to DOC, ABI exhibited better efficacy in patients with IDC-P of either pattern. However, IDC-P pattern 2 still responded unsatisfactorily to either ABI or DOC therapy. Novel therapeutic strategies appropriate for IDC-P pattern 2 need to be further investigated in the future.

ObjectivesTo investigate whether radiotherapy as metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) on oligo-progressive sites in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients during treatment with androgen receptor-targeted therapy (ARTT) may lead to control resistant lesions, prolonging ARTT. We analysed progression free survival, overall survival and prognostic parameters that can identify patients that best suit to this approach.Patients and MethodsRetrospective analysis of a total of 67 lesions in 42 mCRPC patients treated with ablative or palliative RT to oligoprogressive lesions during ARTT. Twenty-eight patients (67%) underwent ARTT with Abiraterone acetate and 14 patients (33%) underwent ARTT with Enzalutamide. Median time between the start of ADT and ARTT beginning was 50.14 months (range 3.37-219 months). We treated 58 lesions (87%) with 3D conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and nine lesions (13%) with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). The Kaplan Meier method was used to assess the median overall survival (OS) and the progression-free survival (PFS).ResultsMedian follow-up was 28 months (range 3-82 months). Median OS was 32.5 months (95% CI 25.77-39.16), 1 and 2-year OS were 71.6% and 64.1%, respectively. Median PFS was 19,8 months (95% CI 11.34–28.31), 1 and 2-year PFS were 67.2% and 47.4%, respectively. Median OS for patients that underwent radiotherapy before 6 months from the start of ARTT was 23.4 months (95% CI 2.04-44.89) and 45.5 months (95% CI 31.19-59.8) for patients that underwent radiotherapy after 6 months (p = 0.009).ConclusionLocal ablative radiation therapy directed to progressive metastasis is a non-invasive, well tolerated treatment with efficacy on prolonging clinical benefit of systemic therapies with ARTT. Patients who underwent RT &gt;6 months from the start of ARTT presented a statistically better OS and PFS compared with patients who underwent radiotherapy &lt;6 months from the start of ARTT.

80 Background: Several studies have reported that intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) is a pathological adverse prognostic factor in patients with prostate cancer. However, the optimal treatment has not been established. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of docetaxel and androgen receptor axis-targeted (ARAT) agents in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) with IDC-P using a propensity score-matched analysis. Methods: We retrospectively identified 309 patients with CRPC from February 2007 to February 2016. They received initial androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and after progression to CRPC, they received docetaxel or ARAT (abiraterone or enzalutamide) as the first-line life-prolonging therapy. The primary outcome of interest was OS from the time of CRPC diagnosis. We also investigated PFS from the time of docetaxel or ARAT initiation. Results: Propensity score-matching identified 85 patients in each group. There were no significant differences in patient characteristics between the groups. The median OS in the docetaxel group was 38.2 months versus 58.3 months in the ARAT group (HR 0.57; 95% CI 0.37–0.89; P =.01). Regarding patients with IDC-P, OS was significantly longer in the ARAT group than the docetaxel group (HR 0.48; 95% CI 0.26–0.86; P =.01), and there was no significant difference in each group, as in patients without IDC-P (HR 0.75; 95% CI 0.37–1.52; P =.43). The median PFS in the docetaxel group was 6.7 versus 7.8 months in the ARAT group (HR 0.65; 95% CI 0.45–0.94; P =.02). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that the presence of IDC-P, duration of primary ADT, visceral metastasis, and administration of ARAT as the first treatment for CRPC were independent prognostic factors for OS. Conclusions: Administration of ARAT as the first treatment for CRPC may prolong OS more than that of docetaxel, especially in patients with IDC-P.

PURPOSE Increases in androgen receptor ( AR) copy number (CN) can be detected in plasma DNA when patients develop metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. We aim to evaluate the association between AR CN as a continuous variable and clinical outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS PCR2023 was an international, multi-institution, open-label, phase II study of abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone (AAP) or abiraterone acetate plus dexamethasone that included plasma AR assessment as a predefined exploratory secondary end point. Plasma AR CN data (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01867710 ) from this study (n = 133) were pooled with data from the following three other cohorts: cohort A, which was treated with either AAP or enzalutamide (n = 73); the PREMIERE trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02288936 ) of biomarkers for enzalutamide (n = 94); and a phase II trial from British Columbia (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02125357 ) that randomly assigned men to either AAP or enzalutamide (n = 201). The primary outcome measures for the biomarker analysis were overall survival and progression-free survival. RESULTS Using multivariable fractional polynomials analysis using Cox regression models, a nonlinear relationship between plasma AR CN and outcome was identified for overall survival, where initially for small incremental gains in CN there was a large added hazard ratio that plateaued at higher CN. The CN cut point associated with the highest local hazard ratio was 1.92. A similar nonlinear association was observed with progression-free survival. In an exploratory analysis of PCR2023, the time from start of long-term androgen-deprivation therapy to start of AAP or abiraterone acetate plus dexamethasone was significantly shorter in patients with plasma AR CN of 1.92 or greater than patients with plasma AR CN of less than 1.92 (43 v 130 weeks, respectively; P = .005). This was confirmed in cohort A ( P = .003), the PREMIERE cohort ( P = .03), and the British Colombia cohort ( P = .003). CONCLUSION Patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer can be dichotomized by a plasma AR CN cut point of 1.92. Plasma AR CN value of 1.92 or greater identifies aggressive disease that is poorly responsive to AR targeting and is associated with a prior short response to primary androgen-deprivation therapy.

Until recently, continuing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and closely monitoring patients until evolution towards metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) were recommended in men with non-metastatic CRPC (nmCRPC). Because delaying the development of metastases and symptoms in these patients is a major issue, several trials have investigated next-generation androgen receptor (AR) axis inhibitors such as apalutamide, darolutamide, and enzalutamide in this setting. This review summarizes the recent advances in the management of nmCRPC, highlighting the favourable impact of next-generation AR inhibitors on metastases-free survival, overall survival and other clinically meaningful endpoints.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to reveal the prognostic values of prior local therapy in first-line therapy using androgen receptor-axis targeting agents (abiraterone or enzalutamide) or docetaxel for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Methods The study included 303 patients treated with first-line therapy for non-metastatic and metastatic CRPC. The association between prior local therapy and therapeutic outcome including progression-free survival and overall survival was investigated by univariate and multivariate analyses as well as propensity score-matched analysis. Results In univariate analysis, local prior therapy was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 0.56, 95% confidence interval, 0.40–0.79; P = 0.0009). Overall survival, but not progression-free survival, was better among patients with prior local therapy compared with patients without prior local therapy even after multivariate analysis and propensity score-matched analysis. Conclusions This study robustly indicated that prior local treatment was prognostic for overall survival among patients with CRPC. This finding is useful to predict patient prognosis in CRPC.

TPS191 Background: Opaganib (Yeliva, ABC294640) is a first-in-class, sphingosine kinase-2 (SK2) selective inhibitor, with anticancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral activities. SK2, a lipid kinase catalyzes formation of the lipid signaling molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). S1P promotes cancer growth, and proliferation and pathological inflammation, including inflammatory cytokine production. Specifically, by inhibiting the SK2 enzyme, opaganib blocks the synthesis of S1P which regulates fundamental biological processes such as cell proliferation, migration, immune cell trafficking and angiogenesis, and are also involved in immune-modulation and suppression of innate immune responses from T cells. Opaganib is a sphingosine-competitive inhibitor of SK2 and also inhibits dihydroceramide desaturase. Opaganib has antitumor activity against human and murine prostate cancer cell lines, and in xenograft (LNCaP) and syngeneic (MycCAP, TRAMP-C1) murine tumor models. In addition to its target effect of reducing sphingosine-1-phosphate, opaganib reduces both MYC and AR proteins through its kinase-blocking and desaturase-inhibiting properties, respectively. Methods: The study is open to patients with mCRPC who have been treated with at least one newer androgen antagonist (abiraterone or enzalutamide) and no prior chemotherapy for castration-resistant disease. Patients who are failing either abiraterone or enzalutamide may enroll, with the addition of opaganib. The trial design includes brief safety lead-in cohort 1a (abiraterone + opaganib 250 mg Q 12hr, 3/3 enrolled) and 1b (enzalutamide + opaganib 250 mg Q 12hr, 3/3 enrolled). These cohorts have been completed without any DLTs. We are now enrolling cohort 2 (abiraterone + opaganib 500 mg Q 12hr, 0/27 enrolled) and cohort 3 (enzalutamide + opaganib 500 mg Q 12hr, 8/27 enrolled). A total of 60 patients will be enrolled and response will be evaluated after 4 cycles (28 days/cycle) using a composite metric based on PSA, bone scan and RECIST measurements per PCWG3 criteria. Safety and tolerability will be monitored, and dose modifications will be allowed. Primary endpoint is disease control (stable disease or better) after 4 cycles. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, radiographic progression-free survival and PSA progression-free survival. Correlative studies include assessment of quality of life (QOL), circulating MDSCs, immune cells and clones with amplified AR or MYC. Supported by NIH grant P01 CA203628.
