NCT ID NCT04662580

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a new drug called ARX517, which is designed to find and kill prostate cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. It is being tested alone or with other standard treatments in 183 men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The main goal is to check safety and find the best dose.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ARX517 (a drug that targets prostate cancer cells and delivers a toxin to kill them)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 1 trial, so the main goal is safety, not effectiveness. The drug may not work well or could have serious side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Male and ≥18 years at the time of providing written informed consent. * Histologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma. * For subjects who have not undergone an orchiectomy, must be undergoing treatment with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist or antagonist and must agree to continue such therapy while on study treatment. Subjects enrolled to mCRPC cohorts must have serum testosterone levels of ≤50ng/dL (1.73nM at Screening). * Must receive prior treatment(s) as defined in the protocol for each cohort * Documented evidence of disease progression on or after the most-recent prior regimen for mCRPC cohorts * mCSPC combination cohorts: High volume metastatic disease documented by CT/MRI and/or 99mTC bone scan (for bone lesions) * Adequate blood counts * Must have at least 1 PSMA-positive metastatic lesion and no measurable PSMA-negative lesions by local assessment for alternative dosing regimen and combination cohorts. Key Exclusion Criteria * Receipt of chemotherapy within 21 days prior to enrollment; hormonal therapy (not including LHRH analogs) within 7 days prior to enrollment; palliative radiation therapy within 7 days prior to enrollment; or any other anticancer therapy within 21 days prior to enrollment or other therapy for monotherapy cohorts * Receipt of more than 1 prior taxane regimen or non-taxane chemotherapy for prostate cancer for alternative dose regimen and mCRPC combination cohorts * Receipt prior apalutamide, enzalutamide, or darolutamide, or AAP for mCRPC combination cohorts * Receipt any prior chemotherapy or prior ARPI, and must be greater than 90 days of ADT prior to enrollment for mCSPC combination cohorts * Use of chronic systemic glucocorticoids equivalent to \> 10 mg prednisone daily. Note: short-term administration of systemic corticosteroids \> 10 mg prednisone equivalent (e.g., for allergic reactions or management of immune- or infusion-related AEs) is allowed. * Symptomatic and/or untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Patients with asymptomatic, untreated CNS metastases are eligible provided they have been clinically stable (neurologically stable and not requiring steroids for at least 28 days prior to enrollment). * History of any invasive malignancy (other than primary) within the previous 2 years prior to the enrollment date that requires active therapy or is at high risk of recurrence in the opinion of the investigator. * Marked baseline prolongation of QT/QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc), e.g., a triplicate-average QTc interval \> 480 milliseconds (CTCAE Grade 2) using Fridericia's QT correction formula at any time within 28 days before enrollment, ongoing history of CTCAE Grade ≥2 QTc at enrollment, or anticipated need to perform repeat ECG evaluations to satisfy re-treatment criteria. * Prior history of interstitial lung disease, pneumonitis, or other clinically significant lung disease within 12 months prior to enrollment date. * Clinically significant ocular findings by a qualified ophthalmologist or optometrist including active ocular infections or chronic corneal disorders unless approved by the Medical Monitor. * Peripheral neuropathy Grade ≥ 2 within 28 days prior to enrollment. * For combination cohorts with apalutamide: no prior history of seizure or condition that may predispose to seizure (including but not limited to prior cerebrovascular accident, TIA or loss of consciousness within the last 12 months, brain AVM, brain metastases). * 24-hour urine protein \> 1g/24h
