  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patient needs to have a histologic or cytologic diagnosis of prostate cancer
  • Documented progressive metastatic CRPC based on at least one of the following criteria:
  • PSA progression defined as 25% increase over baseline value with an increase in the absolute value of at least 2 ng/mL that is confirmed by another PSA level with a minimum of a 1 week interval and a minimum PSA of 2 ng/mL.
  • Soft-tissue progression defined as an increase ≥ 20% in the sum of the LD of all target lesions based on the smallest sum LD since treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.
  • Progression of bone disease (evaluable disease) or (new bone lesion(s)) by bone scan.

  • Patients on long term (>6 months) anti-androgen therapy (e.g. flutamide, bicalutamide, nilutamide) will need to be off anti-androgen for 4 weeks (wash out period) and show evidence of disease progression off the anti-androgen. Patients that have been on an anti-androgen 6 months or less will need to discontinue anti-androgen therapy prior to treatment start (no wash out period required).
  • Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below obtained within 14 days prior to treatment start:
  • ANC >=1,500/μl

  • Patients must be able to take oral medication without crushing, dissolving or chewing tablets.
  • Patients may have received prior radiation therapy or major surgery. However, at least 21 days prior to treatment start must have elapsed since completion of radiation therapy or major surgery and patient must have recovered from all side effects at the time of randomization.

Who cannot join

  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents. Any prior investigational therapeutic products must be stopped at least 28 days (4 week washout) prior to treatment start.
  • No prior exposure to abiraterone acetate or other specific CYP-17 inhibitors.
  • No prior chemotherapy regimen. Prior isotope therapy with Strontium-89, Samarium or RAD223 should be completed at least three months (12 weeks) prior to treatment start.

  • Patients with known symptomatic 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 AEs.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to cabazitaxel or other drugs formulated with polysorbate 80; or abiraterone acetate.
  • Patients may continue on a daily Multi-Vitamin, calcium and Vitamin D, but all other herbal, alternative and food supplements (i.e. PC-Spes, Saw Palmetto, St John Wort, etc.) must be discontinued before treatment start. Patients must not be planning to receive any concurrent cytotoxic chemotherapy, surgery for their prostate cancer, or radiation therapy during protocol treatment.
  • Patients on stable doses of bisphosphonates or the RANK-L inhibitor, Denosumab, which have been started no less than 4 weeks prior to treatment start, may continue on this medication, however patients are not allowed to initiate bisphosphonate/Denosumab therapy during the study.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III and IV heart failure), unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that, in the opinion of the investigator, would limit

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Progression Free Survival (rPFS)

    using the RECIST criteria

    Measured: Up to 100 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. PSA Progression Free Survival (PSA PFS)

    For each patient, use a waterfall plot to report the percent change in PSA from baseline to 12 weeks (or earlier for those who discontinue therapy) and the maximum decline in PSA that occurs at any point after treatment.

    Measured: Up to 100 weeks

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    per RECIST criteria

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Participants With Maximum Overall Grade ≥3 AEs

    The NCI CTCAE version 4.0 will be used for recording and grading AEs.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Abiraterone acetate 1000 mg po daily, Cabazitaxel 25 mg/m2 IV and prednisone 5 mg po BID in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 23 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Dec 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression Free Survival (rPFS) (time frame: Up to 100 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Dec 2024.
