About this study

Official title: A Randomized Multicenter Phase III Trial Comparing Docetaxel or Hormone Therapy as Second Line Treatment in Patients With Asymptomatic or Oligosymptomatic Metastatic Castration-resistent Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) Progressing After Abiraterone or Enzalutamide.

This is a randomized phase 3 trial aiming to compare the efficacy of docetaxel and hormone therapy as second line treatment in patients with mCRPC progressing after therapy with abiraterone or enzalutamide.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive docetaxel or hormone therapy (abiraterone or enzalutamide based on previous treatment).

Docetaxel (standard) will be administered for 10 cycles (maximum).

Hormone therapy (experimental) will be administered until progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Being tested
Docetaxel, Abiraterone Acetate or Enzalutamide
Keywords
metastatic castration-resistent prostate cancer, asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic, hormone therapy, docetaxel

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DocetaxelDrug

    Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 intravenous (iv) infusion every 3 weeks plus oral prednisone 5 mg twice daily for a maximum of 10 cycles.

  • Abiraterone Acetate or EnzalutamideDrug

    Patient will receive Abiraterone or Enzalutamide based on previous treatment.

    Abiraterone given orally at the dose of 1000 mg daily plus oral prednisone 5 mg twice daily until progression or unacceptable toxicity. One course of therapy corresponds to four weeks of treatment.

    Enzalutamide given orally at the dose of 160 mg daily until progression or unacceptable toxicity. One course of therapy corresponds to four weeks of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from randomization until death

    Measured: up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time elapsed from the date of randomization to the date of progression, as defined by investigators, or the date of death, whichever comes first.

    Measured: up to 5 years

  2. Time to Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Progression

    as determined by investigator

    Measured: up to 5 years

  3. Incidence of symptomatic skeletal events (SSE)

    reporting the incidence and types of skeletal related events

    Measured: up to 5 years

  4. Time to symptomatic skeletal event (SSE)

    Time from the date of randomization to the date of documented symptomatic skeletal event

    Measured: up to 5 years

  5. Time to Pain Progression

    Time from the date of randomization to the date of pain progression

    Measured: up to 5 years

  6. Number of participants with treatment-related side effects as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (CTCAE) version 5.0

    graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (CTCAE) version 5.0

    Measured: baseline, during treatment (every 4 weeks) up to 5 years

  7. Determination of changes in quality of life

    EORTC QLQ-C30, a quality of life questionnaires, composed by 30 items graded from1 (not at all) to 4 (very much) after 1 year from the diagnosis

    Measured: baseline, during treatment up to 5 years

  8. Radiographic response (bone lesions)

    Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1

    Measured: up to 5 years

  9. Radiographic response (soft tissue lesions)

    Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) criteria

    Measured: up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Docetaxel and Abiraterone Acetate or Enzalutamide in people with Metastatic Castration-resistent Prostate Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute, Naples at 1 site in Italy.

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 10 inclusion and 22 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2023. 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 Italy. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Overall survival (OS) (time frame: up to 5 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 24 Mar 2023.
