Description

Summary

This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of niraparib, and to see how well it works in combination with standard of care radiation therapy and hormonal therapy (androgen deprivation therapy) in treating patients with prostate cancer that has a high chance of coming back (high risk). Niraparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Adding niraparib to the usual treatments of radiation therapy and hormonal therapy may lower the chance of prostate cancer growing or returning.

Official Title

Randomized Phase II Trial of Niraparib With Standard Combination Radiotherapy and Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) in High Risk Prostate Cancer (With Initial Phase I)

Details

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To establish the preferred dose of niraparib in combination with radiation and antiandrogen therapy (ADT). (Phase I) II. To compare the disease-free state, defined as PSA remaining < 0.1 ng/ml at the end of ADT therapy in men with high risk prostate cancer treated with standard therapy with or without the addition of niraparib. (Phase IIR)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To further establish the safety and toxicity profile of standard treatment with radiation and androgen deprivation therapy specifically, two years from initiation of ADT, plus niraparib at the phase II dose.

II. To compare the overall survival, prostate cancer-specific survival, local/regional or distant progression, and distant metastatic disease rates of standard therapy with or without the addition of niraparib.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To identify genomic biomarkers of response to combination therapy with radiation, ADT and PARP inhibition.

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

PHASE I: Patients receive niraparib orally (PO) once daily (QD) and receive standard of care gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist androgen suppression therapy. Treatment with niraparib continues for 12 months, and GnRH agonist therapy for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 8 weeks after starting niraparib and GnRH agonist, patients undergo standard of care intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) 5 days per week for about 6-9 weeks, depending on type of radiation therapy given, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

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

ARM I: Patients undergo standard of care GnRH agonist androgen suppression therapy for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 8-28 weeks after starting GnRH agonist, patients undergo IMRT 5 days per week for about 6-9 weeks depending on type of radiation therapy given in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM II: Patients undergo standard of care GnRH agonist androgen suppression therapy for 24 months, and niraparib PO QD for 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 8 weeks after starting niraparib, patients undergo standard of care IMRT 5 days per week for about 6-9 weeks depending on type of radiation therapy given in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 3 years, then annually for 3 years.

  • No distant metastases as evaluated by:
    • Bone scan 90 days prior to registration
    • Lymph node assessment by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) of pelvis or nodal sampling within 90 days prior to registration (Please note: Lymph nodes will be considered negative (N0) if they are < 1.5 cm short axis)
  • History/physical examination within 90 days prior to registration
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 within 180 days prior to registration
  • Pretreatment serum PSA, obtained prior to any androgen suppression therapy and within 180 days of registration
  • Phase I patients: Prior androgen suppression for prostate cancer is not allowed prior to registration
  • Phase II patients: Prior androgen suppression for prostate cancer is allowed ≤ 45 days prior to registration
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL (within 90 days prior to registration)
  • Platelets ≥ 100,000 cells/mm3 (within 90 days prior to registration)
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L (within 90 days prior to registration)
