About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Open-label, Multi-center Study of JSB462 (Luxdegalutamide) in Combination With Abiraterone in Adult Male Patients With Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer (mHSPC)

This Phase II study aims to evaluate efficacy and safety of the combination of JSB462 (also known as luxdegalutamide) at 100 mg and 300 mg once a day (QD) doses + abiraterone compared with an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI, abiraterone or enzalutamide) in participants with metastatic Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mHSPC) and to select the recommended dose of the combination for phase III. Towards that end, the totality of the efficacy, safety, tolerability and PK data from participants randomized in the study will be evaluated

Read the detailed description

The study for each participant consists of a Screening period (28 days), a treatment period, a post-treatment safety follow-up (30 days) followed by a long-term follow-up period.

During the treatment period:

  • JSB462 is administered from randomization, orally, daily and continuously (100 mg or 300 mg QD) until disease progression per PCWG3-modified RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the investigator, the occurrence of unacceptable toxicities, death, participant decision or investigator decision.
  • Abiraterone 1000 mg or enzalutamide 160 mg are administered from randomization, orally, daily, and continuously until disease progression per PCWG3-modified RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the investigator, the occurrence of unacceptable toxicities, death, participant decision or investigator decision.

During the post-treatment follow up period:

  • Safety follow-Up: After discontinuation of study treatment, all participants will be followed for at least 1 safety follow-up visit (30 days [+/- 7 days] after treatment discontinuation). Subsequent lines of therapy may be administered according to investigator's discretion after treatment discontinuation.
  • Long-term follow-up: Starts after the Safety follow-up period and lasts until the end of study. Safety, efficacy and survival information may be collected from participants during this period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing JSB462, Abiraterone and Enzalutamide in people with Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 65 sites in 15 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 19 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 65 sites in United States, Italy, Spain, France, Germany and 10 more countries. 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?

Prostate Specific Antigen 90 (PSA90) Rate (time frame: From date of randomization till 30 days safety fup, assessed up to approximately 75 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06991556.

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 19 Oct 2026.
