Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to explore the safety and tolerability of enzalutamide in combination with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone. Subjects diagnosed with cancer of the prostate that was getting worse and spreading to the bone despite receiving hormone treatment were enrolled and received study treatment until disease progression.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

For the study duration, all subjects maintained androgen deprivation with a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist or antagonist or orchiectomy. Study drug was administered until disease progression. Disease progression was defined as a composite endpoint consisting of either clinical deterioration, radiographic progression or prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression according to the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 2 (PCWG2) criteria.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) [From the first dose of study drug administration up 30 days following the last dose of study drug date, with a median duration of treatment of 10.1 months.]

      A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an adverse event occurring or worsening between the start of study treatment date and the latest date of 30 days after the last dose date or the 30-day follow-up visit date, and not later than the data cut-off date or the date of death. AEs, including abnormal clinical laboratory values, were graded using the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) guidelines (V4.03).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline in Testosterone Concentration in Bone Marrow Aspirate [Baseline and Week 9]

      Testosterone concentration in bone marrow aspirate was measured by laboratory results derived from bone marrow samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

    2. Change From Baseline in Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) Concentration in Bone Marrow Aspirate [Baseline and Week 9]

      DHT concentration in bone marrow aspirate was to be measured by laboratory results derived from bone marrow samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. DHT bone data were not collected.

    3. Change From Baseline in Cortisol in Bone Marrow Aspirate [Baseline and Week 9]

      Cortisol in bone marrow aspirate was measured by laboratory results derived from bone marrow samples.

    4. Change From Baseline in Androstenedione in Bone Marrow Aspirate [Baseline and Week 9]

      Androstenedione in bone marrow aspirate was measured by laboratory results derived from bone marrow samples.

    5. Change From Baseline in Progesterone in Bone Marrow Aspirate [Baseline and Week 9]

      Progesterone in bone marrow aspirate was measured by laboratory results derived from bone marrow samples.

    6. Change From Baseline in Pregnenolone in Bone Marrow Aspirate [Baseline and Week 9]

      Pregnenolone in bone marrow aspirate was measured by laboratory results derived from bone marrow samples.

    7. Change From Baseline in Testosterone Concentration in Blood [Baseline and Week 9]

      Testosterone concentration in blood was measured by laboratory results derived from plasma samples. Plasma samples were derived from collected blood samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

    8. Change From Baseline in DHT Concentration in Blood [Baseline and Week 9]

      DHT concentration in blood was measured by laboratory results derived from plasma samples. Plasma samples were derived from collected blood samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. The endpoint could not be analyzed since no participants had DHT levels over the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ).

    9. Change From Baseline in Cortisol Concentration in Blood [Baseline and Week 9]

      Cortisol concentration in blood was measured by laboratory results derived from plasma samples. Plasma samples were derived from collected blood samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

    10. Change From Baseline in Androstenedione Concentration in Blood [Baseline and Week 9]

      Androstenedione concentration in blood was measured by laboratory results derived from plasma samples. Plasma samples were derived from collected blood samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

    11. Change From Baseline in Progesterone Concentration in Blood [Baseline and Week 9]

      Progesterone concentration in blood was measured by laboratory results derived from plasma samples. Plasma samples were derived from collected blood samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

    12. Change From Baseline in Pregnenolone Concentration in Blood [Baseline and Week 9]

      Pregnenolone concentration in blood was measured by laboratory results derived from plasma samples. Plasma samples were derived from collected blood samples processed through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

    13. Change From Baseline to End-of-Treatment (EoT) in Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Levels [Baseline and EoT; the median duration of treatment was 10.1 months.]

      Prostate-specific antigen progression by Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 2 (PCWG2) was defined as a PSA increase ≥25% and ≥2 ng/ml above the post-baseline nadir, and which was confirmed by the first subsequent value of 3 or more weeks later.

    14. Progression Free Survival (PFS) [Up to 1849 days]

      PFS was measured as the time from the date of first dose of any drug of the study combination treatment until the first evidence of documented progression (a composite endpoint consisting of radiographic progression or PSA progression by PCWG2 or clinical deterioration) or death in the absence of progression (whichever came first) or the date last known to be progression free. The Kaplan-Meier (KM) 95% CI was based on Brookmeyer and Crowley robust non-parametric method.

    15. Percentage of Participants With Objective Response for Soft Tissue Lesions According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (RECIST) [Up to 1849 days]

      Objective response was based on RECIST version 1.1 for soft tissue lesion on Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) / Computerized tomography (CT) and the PCWG2 guidelines for bone lesions on bone scans and was defined as partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) based on the investigators' assessments of target, non-target and new lesions while on study treatment. The 95% for objective response rate was based on exact binomial 95% confidence interval (Clopper-Pearson).

    16. Bone Scan Response at EoT [EoT; the median duration of treatment was 10.1 months.]

      PD: ≥1 of 3 criteria: PSA progression: ≥2 rising PSA levels, interval of ≥1 week between each determination. Soft tissue disease progression: RECIST 1.1. Bone disease progression: PCWG2 criteria (≥2 or new lesions on bone scan compared with prior scan). Target lesion CR: disappearance of all target lesions, PR as ≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, referencing baseline sum LD, SD: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, referencing smallest sum LD since treatment start, PD ≥20% increase in sum of LD of target lesions, referencing smallest sum LD recorded since treatment start or appearance of ≥1 new lesions. Non-target lesions CR: disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level, SD: persistence of ≥1 non-target lesions and/or maintenance of tumor marker level above normal limits, PD: appearance of ≥1 new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

    17. Change From Baseline to EoT in Bone Specific Alkaline Phosphatase [Baseline and EoT; the median duration of treatment was 10.1 months.]

      Bone metabolism marker bone specific alkaline phosphatase levels were derived from blood samples collected.

    18. Change From Baseline in Urine N-Telopeptide [Baseline and Week 9]

      Bone metabolism marker urine N-telopeptide levels were derived from urine samples collected.

Bone disease progression: PCWG2 criteria (≥2 or new lesions on bone scan compared with prior scan). Target lesion CR: disappearance of all target lesions, PR as ≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, referencing baseline sum LD, SD: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, referencing smallest sum LD since treatment start, PD ≥20% increase in sum of LD of target lesions, referencing smallest sum LD recorded since treatment start or appearance of ≥1 new lesions. Non-target lesions CR: disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level, SD: persistence of ≥1 non-target lesions and/or maintenance of tumor marker level above normal limits, PD: appearance of ≥1 new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
    Time Frame EoT; the median duration of treatment was 10.1 months.
