Tissue Predictors of Abiraterone Benefit

November 11, 2023 updated by: Tianjin Medical University Second Hospital

Development of Tissue Predictors of Abiraterone Benefit in Men With mCRPC

This is an observational, prospective (study following participants forward in time), multi-center (study conducted in more than 1 center) study to identify the predictive factors that will effectively predict the response to abiraterone treatment in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The entire duration of study will be approximately 3 year. Participants will primarily be evaluated for achieving biochemical or radiological progression after receiving abiraterone treatment based on EAU 2017 practice guideline criteria. For this, we put our attentions on the HOXB3 (an alternative factor of WNT signaling pathway), FKBP5 (FK506 Binding Protein 5, Androgen-regulated gene), NTS (neurotensin, neuroendocrine differentiation can be induced by NTS) and YAP1 (yes-associated protein 1, a biomarker for cancer stem cell), which are selected from the data of gene-array for various subtypes of CRPC (unpublished data). Response to abiraterone treatment will also be predicted using other androgen-regulated genes like AKR1C3 and PCNA.

Detailed Description

It is now accepted that castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is not really androgen-independent and continues to rely on androgen signaling. Abiraterone is an inhibitor of cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1) that impairs androgen-receptor signaling by depleting adrenal and intratumoral androgens. After studies showed improved survival with abiraterone, it was approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

mCRPC is a syndrome other than a disease. The mechanisms of mCRPC contain aberrant activation of androgen signaling, abnormal transition between epithelial and mesenchymal and induction of neuroendocrine differentiation (NED). In addition, cellular heterogeneity represents an omnipresent feature in human tumors, which contain cells with diverse morphology, cytogenetic markers, growth kinetics, immunological characteristics, metastatic ability, and sensitivity to therapeutics.

This is an observational, prospective (study following participants forward in time), multi-center (study conducted in more than 1 center) study to identify the predictive factors that will effectively predict the response to abiraterone treatment in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The entire duration of study will be approximately 3 year. Participants will primarily be evaluated for achieving biochemical or radiological progression after receiving abiraterone treatment based on EAU 2017 practice guideline criteria. For this, we put our attentions on the FKBP5 (FK506 Binding Protein 5, Androgen-regulated gene), NTS (neurotensin, neuroendocrine differentiation can be induced by NTS) and YAP1 (yes-associated protein 1, a biomarker for cancer stem cell), which are selected from the data of gene-array for various subtypes of CRPC. Response to abiraterone treatment will also be predicted using other androgen-regulated genes like AKR1C3 and PCNA.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

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
PSA response rates
Time Frame: 2 YEARS
PSA response rates between FKBP5(protein)-positive and FKBP5(protein)-negative (including YAP1-positive and NTS-positive) patients; PSA response rates between patients with higher or lower expression of androgen-regulated genes (AKR1C3, FKB5, PCNA).
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
PSA progression-free survival (pPFS)
Time Frame: 3 YEARS
pPFS between FKBP5-positive and FKBP5-negative (including YAP1-positive and NTS-positive) patients; pPFS between patients with higher or lower expression of androgen-regulated genes (AKR1C3, FKB5, PCNA).
3 YEARS
clinical or radiographic progression-free survival (cPFS)
Time Frame: 3 YEARS
cPFS between FKBP5-positive and FKBP5-negative (including YAP1-positive and NTS-positive) patients; cPFS between patients with higher or lower expression of androgen-regulated genes (AKR1C3, FKB5, PCNA).
