About
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine the anti-tumor activity of talazoparib plus enzalutamide as first line treatment for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in participants whose disease has progressed on abiraterone.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Researchers will compare the combination of talazoparib and enzalutamide as a first-line treatment for mCRPC to see if the combination improves the PSA response rate and delays progression compared to enzalutamide alone. The safety and tolerability of the combination (talazoparib and enzalutamide) will also be studied
Full description
This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized, phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of talazoparib plus enzalutamide versus enzalutamide as first line treatment for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in participants whose disease has progressed to abiraterone based treatment for metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomized 1:1 to the experimental arm (enzalutamide and talazoparib) or control arm (enzalutamide) and will receive treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death or discontinuation from the study treatment for any other reason.
Prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy in men worldwide with an estimated annual global incidence of 1.3 million and over 375,000 deaths. Aggressive variant prostate cancer is a clinically defined subset of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancers (mCRPC) characterized by the absence of response to androgen receptor (AR) targeted agents and neuroendocrine features. The treatments that are currently available are not effective, representing an unmet clinical need. The combination of talazoparib, a potent selective PARP inhibitor (PARPi) and enzalutamide (androgen receptor signaling inhibitor; ARSi) demonstrated in the TALAPRO-2 study improved efficacy in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) participants with and without DNA damage response (DDR) gene alterations as first line treatment (1L) compared to enzalutamide alone.
Up to 78 participants will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to the experimental and control arms.Up to 19 participants will be allocated into the experimental arm in Stage 1. An interim analysis will be triggered once each patient on the experimental arm has been followed up for at least 16 weeks (or earlier if response status can be ascertained definitively) to decide whether to proceed to Stage 2 or discontinue the study. If greater than or equal to 6 responses are observed, recruitment will continue to Stage 2, enrolling 20 more participants on each arm; otherwise, the trial will stop.
Estimated duration of the study: 36 months. Accrual is expected to be completed in 18 months. Median treatment duration has been estimated in 10 months. After completion of (or discontinuation from) treatment, participants will be followed up for survival until end of study (EoS) that will occur at 18 months after the enrollment of the last patient included in the trial, unless premature termination of the study.
It is hypothesized that after progression to abiraterone, the addition of talazoparib to enzalutamide as 1L for mCRPC will result in improved PSA response rate and delayed progression compared to enzalutamide alone.

Inclusion criteria
12 .Disease progression after at least 12 weeks of treatment with abiraterone for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Progression is defined as:
a. PSA rise of greater than or equal to 25 percent and an absolute increase of greater than or equal to 2 ng/mL above nadir (or baseline for participants with no PSA decline), confirmed by a second PSA value at least 3 weeks later.
and / or b. Limited radiographic progression: maximum of 2 new bone metastases, no new soft tissue metastasis and less than50percentincrease in the size of measurable soft tissue lesions.
a. Received a maximum of 6 cycles of docetaxel for mHSPC. b. Received the last dose of docetaxel higher than 6 months prior to randomization.
Adequate organ function within 28 days before the first study treatment on Day 1, defined by the following:
Haemoglobin greater than or equal to 10 g/dL, no blood transfusions within 14 days before obtaining the haematology laboratory tests at screening,
Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/μL no platelets transfusions within 14 days before obtaining the haematology laboratory tests at screening,
Neutrophils greater than or equal to 1500/μL, no growth factors given within 14 days before obtaining the haematology laboratory tests at screening,
Serum creatinine less than1.5X ULN or calculated creatinine clearance greater than or equal to 50 mL/min
Albumin greater than 3 g/dL,
AST or ALT less than 2.5 × ULN (less than 5 × ULN if liver function abnormalities are due to hepatic metastasis).
Total serum bilirubin less than 1.5 × ULN (less than 3 × ULN for participants with documented Gilbert syndrome or for whom indirect bilirubin concentrations suggest an extrahepatic source of elevation).
Ability to swallow study medication tablets and comply with study requirements.
Agrees to use a condom and another effective method of birth control if he is having sex with a woman of childbearing potential or agrees to use a condom if he is having sex with a woman who is pregnant, starting contraception at screening and continue throughout the study period and for 3 months after the final treatment administration, unless the patient is unable to maintain intercourse due to the androgen deprivation.
Subjects must not donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 3 months after the final abiraterone acetate administration.
Subject agrees not to participate in another interventional study while on treatment.
Willing and able to comply with all scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests and other study procedures.
Exclusion criteria
Prior abiraterone treatment for less than 12 weeks or disease progression (either PSA or radiographic progression) within 6 months of starting abiraterone.
Disease progression less than 6 months after the last administration of docetaxel for mHSPC.

A finding of superscan in a bone scan at screening. Superscan is defined as a bone scan which demonstrates markedly increased skeletal radioisotope uptake relative to soft tissues in association with absent or faint renal activity (absent kidney sign).
Symptomatic or impending spinal cord compression or cauda equina syndrome.
Use of opiate analgesia for pain from prostate cancer with average Brief pain inventory (BPI) questionnaire score higher than 6 and/or uncontrolled prostate cancer-related pain requiring increasing doses of opiates within 4 weeks prior to randomization
