Who may be able to join

  • Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without neuroendocrine differentiation or small cell features
  • Metastatic disease documented by 2 or more bone lesions on bone scan or by soft tissue disease observed by Computed tomography/Magnetic resonance imaging (CT/MRI)

Show all 11Show fewer
  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression defined by a minimum of 2 rising PSA levels with an interval of >1 week between each determination. The PSA value at screening should be >2 ng/mL

Post chemotherapy patients should have received not more than two prior regimens of chemotherapy for prostate cancer, of which one is docetaxel-based

Who cannot join

  • Concomitant treatment with the following is prohibited:
  • All biologic agents (except for sipuleucel T [Provenge®]), or other agents with anti-tumor activity against prostate cancer, including 5 alpha reductase inhibitors, androgens (e.g., testosterone), cytoproterone acetate and all other progestational agents, estrogens, and flutamide within 4 weeks prior to screening
  • Bicalutamide or nilutamide within 6 weeks prior to screening
  • Treatment with estramustine
  • Ketoconazole for treatment of prostate cancer
  • Treatment with abiraterone
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Radiation therapy for treatment of the prostate within 3 months prior to screening
  • Radiation therapy for the treatment of metastases within 3 weeks (if single fraction of radiotherapy then within 2 weeks) and radionuclide therapy for the treatment of metastases within 4 weeks prior to screening
  • Major surgery within 2 months prior to screening
  • Known or suspected intracerebral disease or brain metastasis
  • Use of an investigational agent within 4 weeks prior to treatment allocation or a period required by local regulation, whichever is longer
  • Prior use, or participation in a clinical study, of an investigational agent that blocks androgen synthesis or targets the androgen receptor

About this study

Official title: Phase I/II, Multi-center, Open Label, Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Anti Tumor Activity of ASP9521 in Patients With Metastatic Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer

The study has three parts. Part 1 is a dose escalation to investigate the safety and tolerability of ASP9521. Part 2 will evaluate the safety and tolerability and initial anti-tumor activity of ASP9521. Part 3 of the study will be a Food Effect study.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the first study part is to investigate the safety and tolerability of ASP9521 in patients with Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer. This will be done at different doses, starting at the lowest dose up to higher doses to find the maximum dose that is tolerated.

The second part will investigate the safety and tolerability and evaluate initial anti-tumor activity of ASP9521. This will be done at multiple doses which are identified in part 1 to potentially be effective. The number of patients in part 2 will be higher number compared to part I.

The third part of the study will investigate the effect of food on the drug in patients; this will be a crossover design fed to fasted and vice versa.

What is being measured

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

    Measured: Up to day 28 and further

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Decline in Prostate-specific antigen (PSA)

    Measured: Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ASP9521 in people with Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 4 sites in 3 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 11 inclusion and 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2014. 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 Kingdom, Belgium, France. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: It was decided to discontinue the development in consideration of the results of a P1 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?

To evaluate the safety and tolerability, based on the frequency and severity of Adverse Events (AEs), laboratory assessments, vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs) and clinical observations (time frame: Up to day 28 and further). 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 NCT01352208, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2014.
