TOPARP: A Phase II Trial of Olaparib in Patients With Advanced Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (TOPARP)

A Phase II Trial of Olaparib in Patients With Advanced Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (TOPARP)

This is an open-label, single arm, two part adaptive design phase II trial of Olaparib in patients with advanced castration resistant prostate cancer.

The trial aims to evaluate the the anti-tumour activity of Olaparib in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer, identify molecular signatures of tumour cells in responding and non-responding patients, and to identify predictive biomarkers of Olaparib response.

4. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV heart disease), unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, uncontrolled hypertension or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
5. Any acute toxicities due to prior chemotherapy & / or radiotherapy that have not resolved to a NCI-CTCAE v4.02 grade 0 or 1 with the exception of chemotherapy induced alopecia & grade 2 peripheral neuropathy
6. Malignancy within the previous 2-years with a > 30% probability of recurrence within 12 months with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer, in-situ or superficial bladder cancer
7. Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukaemia
8. Patients with known symptomatic brain metastasis are not suitable for enrollment. Patients with asymptomatic, stable, treated brain metastases are eligible for study entry
9. Patients with symptomatic or impending cord compression unless appropriately treated beforehand & clinically stable & asymptomatic
10. Patients who have experienced a seizure or seizures within 6 months of study treatment or who are currently being treated with cytochrome P450 enzyme inducing anti-epileptic drugs for seizures
11. Patients receiving any of the following classes of inhibitors of CYP3A4 (see protocol for guidelines & wash out periods)
12. Patients with gastrointestinal disorders likely to interfere with absorption of the study medication
13. Initiating bisphosphonate therapy or adjusting bisphosphonate dose/regimen within 30 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1. Patients on a stable bisphosphonate regimen are eligible & may continue
14. Presence of a condition or situation, which, may put the patient at significant risk, confound the study results, or interfere significantly with participation in the study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Olaparib 400mg; Oral Olaparib at a dose of 400mg twice daily, continuously on a 28 day cycle	Drug: Olaparib; Until objective disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or patient withdrawal for whatever reason; Other Names: AZD2281

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Response rate to Olaparib	Response will be defined on the basis of the following outcomes, if any of these occur patients will be considered to have responded: Objective response by modified RECIST; PSA decline of ≥50% according to the Prostate Cancer Working Group 2; Conversion of circulating tumour cell count from ≥5 cells/7.5ml blood at baseline to <5 cells/7.5ml blood confirmed by at least two readings 4 weeks apart	Response will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Radiographic progression free survival	rPFS will be defined by either RECIST progression and/or progression on bone scan. It will be measured from the date of trial entry to the first occurence of radiographic progression or death from any cause	Radiographic progression free survival will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
Progression free survival	PFS will be measured from date of trial entry until radiographic progression, unequivocal clinical progression or death	Progression free survival will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
Time to PSA Progression	For patients who have achieved ≥50% decrease from the cycle 1 day 1 (baseline), the PSA progression date is defined as the date that a ≥25% increase and an absolute increase of ≥2ng.mL above the nadir is documented. This must be confirmed by a second consecutive value. For patients without a PSA decrease of this magnitude or no decrease at all, PSA progression date is defined as the date that a ≥ 25% increase and an absolute increase of ≥ 2 ng/mL above the baseline is documented. This must also be confirmed by a second consecutive value.	Time to PSA progression will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
CTC count conversion rate	Proportion of patients with conversion of CTC count from ≥5/7.5ml blood at baseline to <5/7.5ml blood nadir	CTC count conversion rate will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
Duration of PSA response	Duration of PSA response is calculated from the time the PSA value first declines by at least 50% of the cycle 1 day 1 (baseline) value (must be confirmed by a second value) until the time there is an increase of 25% of PSA nadir, provided the absolute increase is at least 2 ng/mL. The increase must be confirmed by a second consecutive measurement.	Duration of PSA response will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
Number of participants with grade 3 or 4 adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability.	The proportion of patients with grade 3/4 adverse events will be described along with other descriptive measures of safety and tolerability and evaluated by the IDMC	Will be evaluated 1) when the first 5 and 10 participants have completed the 1st cycle of treatment and, 2) at 6 months post trial entry.
Time to radiographic progression	Time to radiographic progression (progression defined by either RECIST progression and /or progression on bone scan) will be measured from the date of trial entry to the first occurrence of radiographic progression. Death from prostate cancer or any other cause without prior radiographic evidence of progression will not count as an event.	Will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
Overall survival	OS will be measured from the date of trial entry to the date of death (whatever the cause). Survival time of living patients will be censored on the last date a patient is known to be alive or lost to follow-up	Will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
PSA objective response	PSA response and PSA progression are defined according to the consensus guidelines of the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 2.	Will be evaluated 6 months post trial entry
