STA-9090 in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer With Assessment of Androgen Receptor Pathway Signaling

August 29, 2015 updated by: Toni Choueiri, MD

A Biomarker Study of STA9090 in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) With Assessment of Androgen Receptor Pathway Signaling

In this research study, the investigators are looking to determine the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug, STA9090 alone and in combination with dutasteride for the treatment of castrate resistant prostate cancer. STA9090 may cause the growth of cancer to slow down or shrink by targeting proteins required for the cancer to grow. The investigators are also looking to determine whether the use of dutasteride to lower male hormone levels will enhance the effect of STA9090 in the treatment of castrate resistant prostate cancer.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Subjects will have a tumor biopsy before treatment begins. Subjects who are randomized to Arm A will receive infusions of STA9090 on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day cycle. Subjects randomized on Arm B will receive daily oral dutasteride for 2 weeks prior to beginning STA9090 treatment. They will continue to receive dutasteride while on study.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To assess AR transcriptional activity based on expression of a series of AR regulated genes, in baseline and on therapy tumor biopsies in CRPC patients treated with STA- 9090 +/-dutasteride.
Time Frame: 2 years
The primary objective is to determine whether STA-9090, or the combination with dutasteride further suppresses AR transcriptional activity. AR transcriptional activity will be assessed based on expression of a series of AR regulated genes, in baseline and on therapy tumor biopsies in CRPC patients treated with STA-9090 +/- dutasteride.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To assess the safety and tolerability of STA9090 in men the CRPC
Time Frame: 2 years
Each type of toxicity rate (a proportion) will be analyzed and summarized descriptively.
2 years
To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) of men with CRPC treated with STA9090 with or without dutasteride
Time Frame: 2 years
PFS will be summarized using K-M method.
2 years
To evaluate the overall survival of men with metastatic CRPC treated with STA9090 alone or in combination with dutasteride
Time Frame: 2 years
OS will be summarized using K-M method.
2 years
To determine the response rate of measurable disease if present (RECIST)
