About

The purpose of this study is to assess pharmacodynamics and safety of JNJ-212082 in order to select the recommended dose of JNJ-212082 for patients with castration resistant prostate cancer.

Full description

This study is a multicenter (more than one site), open-label (both physician and patient know the name of the study drug), dose-escalation study in chemotherapy-naive patients with castration- resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to evaluate the pharmacodynamics (the study of the action or effects of drugs on living organisms), safety, pharmacokinetics (how drugs are absorbed in the body, how they are distributed within the body and how they are removed from the body over time) and preliminary effectiveness of JNJ-212082. The dose of the study will be escalated from 250 mg (cohort 1), 500 mg (cohort 2), to 1000 mg (cohort 3). Six to twelve patients within each 250 mg, 500 mg or 1000 mg cohort will be orally administered drug once per day. Comprising 28 days for each 1 cycle, the administration will be continued up to discontinuation for any reasons such as progression of the disease or up to the transition to extension study (Protocol number: JNJ-212082-JPN-203) which will be separately planned. In addition, 5 mg of prednisolone will be orally administered twice per day since Day 8. On receiving notification of the confirmation of safety of 500 mg of the drug, patients of cohort 1 who are currently on continuous administration can receive increment 500 mg per day starting from the next cycle (If the dose escalation would not be appropriate due to safety reasons, the patients will continue the original dose). Furthermore, on receiving notification of the confirmation of safety of 1000 mg, patients of previous cohorts who are currently on continuous administration can receive increment 1000 mg per day as well from the next cycles (If the dose escalation would not be appropriate due to safety reasons, the patients will continue the original dose). JNJ-212082 will be orally administered once per day. Comprising 28 days for each 1 cycle, the administration will be continued up to discontinuation for any reasons such as progression of the disease or up to the transition to extension study. The drug will be administered at least 1 hour prior to meal or 2 hours after meal. The daily dose of the drug is defined as 250 mg, 500 mg or 1000 mg. In addition, 5 mg of prednisolone (marketed) will be orally administered twice per day since Day 8.
