SBRT-AMICO: Adenosine Signaling Modulation and Immune Checkpoint Inhibition With Hormone Sensitive Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a combination of study drugs including zimberelimab, etrumadenant, and quemliclustat in combination with metastasis-directed irradiation in men with hormone sensitive oligometastatic prostate cancer.
The study aims to test the hypothesis that targeted inhibition of the adenosine signaling axis (quemliclustat (CD73 antagonist) + etrumadenant (A2AR/A2BR antagonist)) and immune checkpoint inhibition (zimberelimab, α-PD-1) in combination with metastasis-directed stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) will improve local control, progression-free survival (PFS), and hormone therapy-free survival and mitigate immunosuppressive changes to the tumor microenvironment (TME), compared to SBRT alone.

Detailed Description
The optimal therapeutic approach to men with oligometastatic (1-3 or 1-5 sites of metastatic disease) prostate cancer is ever more important as advanced imaging technologies are becoming standard of care, providing clinicians with the tools to accurately diagnose and localize oligometastatic prostate cancer. Hence, methods to improve the local curative potential of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a timely and important opportunity. In addition, previous data suggest that the adenosine A2A pathway may be a particularly attractive avenue for intervention in the context of radiation, thus influencing multiple suppressive populations within the tumor microenvironment (TME).
Immunotherapy based on the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling axis is a mainstay of therapy across multiple types of malignancies. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a PD-1 inhibitor (zimberelimab) in combination with a selective dual antagonist of A2aR and A2bR (etrumadenant) and an anti-CD73 (quemliclustat). Immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted inhibitors of the adenosine signaling axis modulate the TME and aspects of the systemic immune system to overcome tumor-induced immune suppression and improve responses to therapy.
This study aims to determine the effect of etrumadenant, quemliclustat and zimberelimab [experimental] when given with ablative radiation (SBRT)[standard of care] on the oligoprogressive disease (hormone sensitive oligometastatic prostate cancer), defined by being free from radiographic progression of irradiated target metastases and PSA (prostate surface antigen) response at 6 months. PSA response, local control, progression-free survival (PFS), treatment response, ADT-free survival, time-to-pain, and safety and tolerability will also be measured. By employing a Simon Two-Stage design, the trial will test whether or not etrumadenant + quemliclustat and zimberelimab combined with ablative radiation (SBRT) will improve PFS compared to SBRT alone (ORIOLE).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of Participants free of progressive disease at 6 months [6 months]
To evaluate efficacy of study treatment if >91% of subjects (21 of 23) are free of progressive disease by measuring percentage of subjects free of progressive disease after at 6 months start of treatment. Progressive disease is defined as one of the following (1) At least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of the target lesion compared to smallest sum of LD recorded since treatment start, or (2) 1 or more new lesions on CT or nuclear bone scan or (3) > 25% increase in PSA concentration measured in peripheral blood from nadir or total PSA > 50 ng/mL.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of Participants free of progressive disease at 12 months [12 months]
To estimate the proportion of men treated with quemliclustat + etrumadenant + zimberelimab + SBRT who are free of progressive disease at 12 months as defined by target lesion(s) and PSA response at 12 months.
- Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Response [12 weeks]
Defined as average PSA change at 12 weeks compared to value on Day 0 (as per Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 PCWG3 criteria) and/or maximal PSA decline.
- Local Control Rate, free of progression of target lesion(s) at 6 months and 12 months [6 and 12 months]
To estimate Local Control (LC) rate, based on radiographic response by irradiated target lesion(s) including stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), and complete response (CR).
- Progression-free survival (PFS) [3.5 years]
To estimate the progression-free survival (PFS) in patients treated with oligometastasis-directed SBRT + quemliclustat + etrumadenant + zimberelimab based on progression of disease (target lesion(s), PSA) and death.
- Treatment Response based on nuclear bone scans at 6 and 12 months. [6 and 12 months]
To estimate treatment response based on nuclear bone scans

- Male participants with female partners of childbearing potential are required to use highly effective contraceptive measures which include condom use. A man is considered fertile after puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy. A female partner of is considered a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) following menarche and until becoming postmenopausal unless permanently sterile.
-
Permanent sterilization methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral oophorectomy.
-
A postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. A high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level in the postmenopausal range may be used to confirm a postmenopausal state in women not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. However, in the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, a single FSH measurement is insufficient.
Highly effective contraceptive measures include:
-
Combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, intravaginal, transdermal
-
Progestogen only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, injectable, implantable
-
Intrauterine device
-
Intrauterine hormone-releasing system
-
Surgical sterilization
-
The male participant is vasectomized (with documented medical confirmation of surgical success) and is the sole sexual partner of the WOCBP participant
-
Female partner of the male participant has undergone bilateral tubal ligation
-
Complete sexual abstinence defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with study treatment. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical trial and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant.
-
Male participants should refrain from donating sperm for 180 days after the last dose of the study drugs.
-
Patient must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign written informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:

The ADT could not exceed 6 months in duration and must have occurred greater than 6 months before time of enrollment.
-
Patients with known brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events.
