Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a combination of fasudil hydrochloride and an immunotherapy drug (tirapibep) in 30 men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has progressed after standard treatments. Participants receive the drugs alongside standard hormone therapy over four 21-day cycles. The study aims to see if the combination is safe and can lower PSA levels, a marker of cancer activity.
