Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 19 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed cancer of prostate (CaP); CaP can be recurrent disease after definitive therapy (radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy) for localized CaP, or metastatic CaP
  • Patients must have CaP deemed to be castration-resistant by one or more of the following criteria (despite androgen deprivation when applicable):
  • Progression of unidimensionally measurable disease assessed within 42 days prior to initial administration of drug
  • Progression of evaluable but not measurable disease assessed within 42 days prior to initial administration of drug for PSA evaluation and for imaging studies (e.g, bone scans)
  • Rising PSA, defined as at least two consecutive rises in PSA to be documented over a reference value (measure 1); the first rising PSA (measure 2) should be taken at least 7 days after the reference value; a third confirmatory PSA measure (second [2nd] beyond the reference level) should be greater than the second measure, and it must be obtained at least 7 days after the 2nd measure; if this is not the case, a fourth PSA measurement is required to be taken and be greater than the second measure
  • Measurable disease is not required
Show all 21Show fewer
  • Patients who have measurable disease must have had X-rays, scans or physical examinations used for tumor measurement completed within 28 days prior to initial administration of drug
  • Patients must have non-measurable disease (such as nuclear medicine bone scans) and non-target lesions (such as PSA level) assessed within 28 days prior to initial administration of drug
  • Soft tissue disease that has been radiated within two months prior to registration is not assessable as measurable disease; soft tissue disease that has been radiated two or more months prior to registration is assessable as measurable disease provided that the lesion has progressed following radiation; as the biology of previously irradiated tumors may be different from non-irradiated tumors, patients must have at least one measurable lesion outside the previously irradiated region in order to be considered to have measurable disease
  • If PSA is the only indicator of disease and patients do not have any metastatic disease, PSA value must be 5.0 or higher
  • Patients must have been surgically or medically castrated; if the method of castration was luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists (leuprolide or goserelin) or antagonists (degarelix), then the patient must be willing to continue the use of LHRH agonists or antagonists; serum testosterone must be at castration levels (< 50 ng/dL) within 3 months prior to registration

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study With a Lead-in Safety Phase of Abiraterone in Combination With PDMX1001/Niclosamide in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC)

This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well abiraterone acetate, niclosamide, and prednisone work in treating patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cells. Hormone therapy using abiraterone acetate may fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of androgen the body makes. Niclosamide is a drug that may block another signal that can cause prostate cancer cell growth. Prednisone is a drug that can help lessen inflammation. Giving abiraterone acetate, niclosamide, and prednisone may be a better treatment for patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response that is a 50% or more reduction from the baseline.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the overall response as determined by the Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 criteria (PCWG2).

II. To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival of CRPC patients treated with PDMX1001/niclosamide (niclosamide), abiraterone (abiraterone acetate) and prednisone.

III. To assess the toxicity of PDMX1001/niclosamide, abiraterone and prednisone given in combination.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive abiraterone acetate orally (PO) once a day (QD), niclosamide PO twice a day (BID) and prednisone PO BID. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 3 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. PSA response rate

    Percent of patients achieving greater than or equal to 50% PSA declines following initiation of treatment

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Incidence of dose limiting toxicity defined as any grade III non-hematologic toxicity not reversible to grade II or less within 96 hours, or any grade IV toxicity

    Graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 4.0. Adverse events and adverse events of grade 3 or higher will be listed for each patient and summarized by body system in a frequency table.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Overall response as determined by PCWG2 criteria

    Measured: From the time measurement criteria are met for complete response/partial response (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented, assessed up to 2 years

  3. Overall survival

    Will be estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier; medians and 95% confidence intervals will be computed.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  4. PFS

    Will be estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier; medians and 95% confidence intervals will be computed. Will be compared with the historic control of abiraterone alone.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Abiraterone Acetate, Niclosamide and Prednisone in people with Metastatic Prostate Carcinoma and Recurrent Prostate Carcinoma, run by Mamta Parikh at 1 site 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 21 inclusion and 14 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 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 1 site 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

PSA response rate (time frame: Up to 2 years). 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 18 Dec 2024.
