First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study tests a two-drug combination (niraparib/abiraterone plus prednisone) in men with a specific genetic change (SPOP mutation) in their advanced prostate cancer that has spread and no longer responds to standard hormone therapy. The goal is to see if the drugs can shrink tumors or slow the cancer. Only 8 participants were enrolled, so results are very early and not conclusive.
