  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Age ≥ 18 years

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Definitive Therapy for Newly Diagnosed Men With Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer

To assess the safety of treating men with oligometastatic prostate cancer with the following therapy: (1st) Systemic chemo-hormonal therapy with up to 6-months (~24 weeks) of neoadjuvant androgen deprivation and up to 6 cycles of chemotherapy, (2nd) definitive local tumor control with prostatectomy +/- adjuvant radiation therapy, and (3rd) consolidative stereotactic radiation to oligometastatic lesions. The men will receive a total of 1 year of androgen deprivation. Androgen blockade will be the same throughout the course of treatment.

Read the detailed description

Neoadjuvant treatment (month 1 through ~6): All patients will be treated with up to 6 months of androgen deprivation, plus up to 6 cycles of docetaxel chemotherapy. Following docetaxel therapy, patients with a prostate-specific antigen response of at least a 50% decrease from baseline, will proceed to maximum consolidative therapy.

Surgery and Radiation (month 7 though ~11): After completion of neoadjuvant therapy, the men will be treated with definitive local therapy with radical prostatectomy (RP) +/- adjuvant radiation therapy (RT). After definitive local therapy, patients will be treated with consolidative stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to the metastatic sites.

Follow up: Patients will continue on androgen deprivation for a total of 1 year. They will be followed clinically and monitored with serum testosterone and prostate-specific antigen until 2-years after completion of ADT (Androgen deprivation therapy) treatment. Androgen blockade will be the same throughout the course of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy as Assessed by 2-year PSA Progression-free Survival Rate

    To evaluate efficacy of multimodality therapy in men, defined as the 2 year PSA progression-free (PSA<0.2 ng/ml) survival among men who have non-castrate testosterone levels 2 years after enrollment. Number of participants (who have non-castrate testosterone levels 2 years after enrollment) with PSA progression-free survival.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety of the Multimodality Therapy as Assessed by Number of Participants With Neutropenia and Surgical or Radiation Toxicities

    To assess the safety and therapeutic benefit of multimodality therapy in men presenting with newly diagnosed oligometastatic prostate cancer (<5 sites of metastases). Safety is defined as the incidence of Grades 3 and 4 neutropenia and surgical- or radiation-induced toxicities.

    Neutropenia is a lower than normal number of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) in the blood. Although dependent on the specific laboratory, the normal number is of neutrophils is generally about 1500-7800 cells/microliter. Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia refer to neutrophil levels <1,000-500 and <500, respectively. The average risk of docetaxel-induced Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia is about 35%. During the course of the study, if we had seen evidence that the risk of Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia was >50%, the study would have been stopped.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Time to Prostate-specific Antigen Recurrence

    To investigate the time from an undetectable prostate-specific antigen (≤0.2 ng/mL) until the prostate-specific antigen is >0.2 over two time-points.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Leuprolide Acetate, Bicalutamide and Docetaxel in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 3 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 7 inclusion and 16 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 4 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 4 Aug 2022). 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?

Efficacy as Assessed by 2-year PSA Progression-free Survival Rate (time frame: 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 4 Aug 2022.
