A Study of Standard Systemic Therapy with or without Definitive Treatment in Treating Participants with Metastatic Prostate Cancer

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaouate how well standard systemic therapy with or without definitive treatment (prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy) works in treating participants with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.

Inclusion Criteria: 

STEP 1 REGISTRATION - DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA

  • All patients must have a histologically or cytologically proven diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Patients with pure small cell carcinoma* (SCC), sarcomatoid, or squamous cell carcinoma are not eligible. (*morphology must be consistent with SCC; synaptophysin or chromogranin positive by immunohistochemical staining is insufficient to diagnose SCC).
  • Patients must have an intact prostate.
  • Patients must have at least one of the following scans performed, showing evidence of metastatic disease:
    • technetium bone scan; OR
    • CT of abdomen & pelvis; OR
    • MRI of pelvis..
  • Scans must be performed between 42 days prior to start of first hormonal therapy and 14 days following start of first hormonal therapy. Metastatic disease that is detected by PET scan only (NaF, PSMA, FACBC, C11) but not conventional imaging (Tc99 bone scan, CT or MRI) or solitary metastases by conventional imaging, must be confirmed histologically or cytologically.
  • Patients with known brain metastases are not eligible. Brain imaging studies are not required for eligibility if the patient has no neurologic signs or symptoms suggestive of brain metastasis. If brain imaging studies are performed, they must be negative for disease.

STEP 1 REGISTRATION - PRIOR/CONCURRENT THERAPY CRITERIA

  • Patients must have received no more than 28 weeks of SST, as measured from the date of first hormonal therapy (LHRH agonist or LHRH antagonist) or surgical castration. SST is defined as current NCCN guidelines for metastatic prostate cancer.
  • No prior local therapy for prostate adenocarcinoma is allowed (e.g., brachytherapy, HIFU, cryotherapy, laser ablative therapies). Any prior therapy for benign conditions, such as obstruction, are acceptable (e.g., transurethral resection of the prostate, greenlight laser ablation, microwave ablation).
  • Patients must not have received any prior systemic therapy for prostate cancer, outside of line of SST to be used for duration of study.
  • Patients must not have progressed while on SST.
  • Patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer may receive metastasis directed therapy to up to four sites of disease prior to randomization.

STEP 1 REGISTRATION - CLINICAL/LABORATORY CRITERIA:

  • Patients must be ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Patients must have a complete physical examination and medical history within 28 days prior to registration.
  • Patients must have a documented PSA:
    • Prior to initiation of SST;
    • Within 28 days prior to registration;
    • Any additional PSAs measured while receiving SST should be recorded.
  • Patients must have a testosterone lab documented within 28 days prior to registration. Any additional testosterone labs measured while receiving SST should be recorded as well as pretreatment initiation if available.
  • No other prior malignancy is allowed except for the following: adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, adequately treated Stage 0, I or II cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission, or any other cancer from which the patient has been disease free for three years.

STEP 1 REGISTRATION - SPECIMEN SUBMISSION CRITERIA

  • Patients must be offered the opportunity to participate in translational medicine studies and specimen banking for future studies.

STEP 1 REGISTRATION - QUALITY OF LIFE CRITERIA

  • Patients who can complete Patient-Reported Outcome instruments in English, Spanish or French, must participate in the quality of life studies.

STEP 1 REGISTRATION - REGULATORY CRITERIA

  • Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must sign and give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines.
  • As a part of the OPEN registration process the treating institution's identity is provided in order to ensure that the current (within 365 days) date of institutional review board approval for this study has been entered in the system.

STEP 2 RANDOMIZATION - DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA

  • Patients must have no evidence of disease progression during the 28 weeks of SST, as shown by:
    • PSA measure;
    • imaging (bone scan and one of the following: CT of abdomen & pelvis, MRI of abdomen & pelvis, CT of abdomen & MRI of pelvis) within 42 days prior to randomization.
  • Patients must have no evidence of symptomatic deterioration (as defined by physician discretion) within 28 days prior to randomization.
  • Patients must have consultation with a urologist and have surgically resectable disease regardless of definitive treatment intent or randomization.

STEP 2 RANDOMIZATION - PRIOR/CONCURRENT THERAPY CRITERIA

  • Patients must have received at least 22 and no more than 28 weeks of SST, as measured from the date of first hormonal therapy (LHRH agonist or LHRH antagonist) or surgical castration. SST is defined by current NCCN guidelines for metastatic prostate cancer.
  • Patients must not be planning to receive docetaxel after randomization.
  • Any toxicities from SST must have resolved to ≤ Grade 1 (CTCAE Version 5.0) prior to randomization.
  • Patients may have received elective metastasis directed therapy to oligometastatic sites (≤ 4 sites). All treatment must be completed prior to randomization.

STEP 2 RANDOMIZATION - CLINICAL/LABORATORY CRITERIA

  • Patients must have a PSA performed within 28 days prior to randomization.
  • Patients must have a testosterone < 50 ng/dL within 28 days prior to randomization.
  • Patients must have a Zubrod performance status of 0 – 1 within 28 days prior to randomization.
