Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of olaparib and how well it works with radium Ra 223 dichloride in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to the bone and other places in the body (metastatic). PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Radioactive drugs, such as radium Ra 223 dichloride, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Giving olaparib and radium Ra 223 dichloride may help treat patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of olaparib in combination with radium Ra 223 dichloride (radium-223). (Phase 1) II. Evaluate the radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS). (Phase 2)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Evaluate safety and tolerability as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.

  2. To evaluate rPFS as stratified by disease extent (=< 20 or > 20 bone lesions) and prior docetaxel use (yes or no).

  3. Evaluate rPFS in patients harboring or lacking evidence of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD).

  4. Evaluate rPFS in patients based on prior abiraterone and/or next generation androgen receptor (AR) antagonist (enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide or other agent) use (yes versus no) for either hormone sensitive or castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).

  5. Evaluate prostate specific antigen (PSA) response rate as defined by >= 50% decline in PSA from baseline.

  6. Evaluate total alkaline phosphatase response defined as a reduction of >= 30% from the baseline value, confirmed >= 4 weeks later.

  7. Evaluate time to PSA progression as defined by Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group (PCTWG) 3 criteria.

  8. Evaluate radiographic objective response rate as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) version 1.1.

  9. Evaluate time to increase in the total alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level defined as an increase of >= 25% from baseline at >= 12 weeks, in patients with no decrease from baseline, or as an increase of >= 25% above the nadir, confirmed >= 3 weeks later, in patients with an initial decrease from baseline.

  10. Evaluate time to first subsequent anti-cancer therapy (including AR signaling agents, cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or investigational agents) or death.

  11. Evaluate time to first symptomatic skeletal event (SSE). XII. Evaluate overall survival (OS).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Evaluate impact on quality of life (QOL) as determined by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P) questionnaire and Brief Pain Inventory (BPI).

  5. Evaluate changes in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in patients each treatment arm.

  6. Assess the prevalence of germline mutations in homologous recombination genes in all enrolled patients.

  7. Correlate homologous recombination gene germline mutation status with PSA response by treatment arm.

  8. Evaluate family history of cancers in the study population and correlate family cancer history with germline mutation status.

  9. Correlate presence or absence of RAD51 with somatic and germline homologous recombination gene mutation status, PSA response, and PFS between treatment arms.

  10. Evaluate the changes in whole genome sequencing (WGS) of plasma cell-free circulating DNA (cfDNA) based patient-tumor specific signature at baseline, on treatment, and at progression.

  11. Evaluate tumor mutation burden (TMB) and tumor mutational signature in plasma cfDNA at baseline and correlate to tumor tissue TMB and mutational signature.

OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of olaparib followed by a phase II study.

PHASE I: Patients receive radium Ra 223 dichloride intravenously (IV) over 1 minute on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive olaparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PHASE II: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Patients receive radium Ra 223 dichloride IV over 1 minute on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive olaparib PO BID on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM II: Patients receive radium Ra 223 dichloride as in Arm I. Patients with radiographic progression may crossover to Arm I. If patients have already completed all 6 infusions of radium, they will receive monotherapy with olaparib. If they have not yet completed all 6 radium-223 infusion, they will continue radium-223 infusion until completion and receive concurrent treatment with olaparib.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 2 years.

    6. ALP progression [From randomization to the date of first ALP progression, assessed up to 2 years]

      Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier and compared between treatment arms using the stratified log-rank test.

    7. Symptomatic skeletal event (SSE) [From randomization to occurrence of the first SSE, such as pathologic bone fracture, spinal cord compression, hypercalcemia of malignancy or radiation therapy or surgery to bone, described by the US Food and Drug Administration, assessed up to 2 years]

      Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier and compared between treatment arms using the stratified log-rank test.

    8. Overall survival (OS) [From randomization to the date of death due to any cause, assessed up to 2 years]

      Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier and compared between treatment arms using the stratified log-rank test.

    9. Incidence of adverse events [Up to 2 years]

      Will be assessed using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5. Adverse events will be summarized according to grade, overall and by treatment arm, as number and percentage of participants. All adverse events resulting in discontinuation, dose modification, and/or dosing interruption, and/or treatment delay of drug will also be summarized by treatment arm.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Change in levels of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) [Baseline up to 2 years]

      Will be summarized at baseline and each cycle with descriptive statistics. Percent change from baseline or status change (e.g. from normal to abnormal defined by institution upper limit level) will be reported and compared between treatment arms at selected timepoints using Wilcoxon rank sum test or Fisher's exact test as appropriate.

    2. Frequency of mutations in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair pathway [Up to 2 years]

      Will be determined by Oncopanel testing. Gene mutation frequencies and mean +/- standard deviation of quantitative biomarkers will be summarized by arm and in overall population at baseline and/or at time of progression.

    3. Homologous recombination deficiency [Up to 2 years]

      Cox regression or logistic regression will be conducted to explore the association of rPFS or treatment response (PSA or tumor response) with homologous recombination gene mutation status.

    4. Prevalence of germline mutations in homologous recombination genes [Up to 2 years]

      Their correlation with family history of cancers as determined by the Family History Questionnaire and PSA response will be evaluated using Fisher's exact test or logistic regression as appropriate in all patients and/or by treatment arm as exploratory analyses.

    5. Quality of life (QOL) [Baseline up to 2 years]

      Will be measured using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P) questionnaire and Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). For each treatment group, calculated QOL scores will be summarized at baseline and each time point. Changes from baseline will be graphically presented. The effect of treatment will be evaluated using a repeated measures model to incorporate assessments across time into a single analysis, using model contrasts to compare treatment groups at selected time points.
