Detailed Description
Purpose and Design
BARCODE 2 is a single arm, single site phase II trial with the aim to determine the response rate to two cycles of platinum chemotherapy in patients with mCRPC and a germline mutation in a DNA repair gene. Response will be measured with prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels and radiological assessment. The study will be divided into two parts. In part 1 of the study, the DNA repair gene mutation carrier status of enrolled patients will be assessed using a gene panel. Men who are found to carry a pathogenic mutation or are already known to carry a germline mutation can enrol in part 2 of the study and be offered treatment with carboplatin.
Eligibility and Recruitment
Patients with mCRPC which has progressed after docetaxel chemotherapy and androgen receptor-directed therapy (e.g., abiraterone or enzalutamide) may be assessed for eligibility for study entry. Patients who have completed treatment with or are currently undergoing cabazitaxel chemotherapy are also eligible.
Inclusion Criteria
All study participants will be assessed according to the part 1 and/ or part 2 inclusion criteria depending on which part of the study they enter initially (see inclusion/exclusion criteria further below).
Informed Consent
Participants will be given the latest ethically approved BARCODE 2 participant information sheet (PIS) for their consideration. Patients will only be asked to consent to the study after they have had sufficient time to consider the trial, and the opportunity to ask any further questions. Patients who have not had previous genetic testing will sign the part 1 consent form to undergo genetic profiling for a germline mutation in a DNA repair gene. Patients who are found to have a pathogenic mutation in part 1 or who are already known to carry a germline mutation must sign the part 2 consent form prior to undergoing part 2 study related procedures.
Patient Confidentiality
Patients will be asked to consent to their full name being collected at trial entry in addition to their date of birth, hospital number, postcode and National Health Service (NHS) number or equivalent to allow linkage with routinely collected NHS data and ensure accuracy in handling biological samples.
Investigators will ensure that all participants' personal identifier information is kept on a separate log.
Investigators will retain trial documents in strict confidence. Investigators will maintain the confidentiality of participants at all times and will not reproduce or disclose any information to third parties by which participants could be identified (without consent).
Data Protection
The study will comply with all applicable data protection laws.
Subject Withdrawal
Participants may discontinue from the trial at any time at their own request, or they may be discontinued from trial treatment at the discretion of the Principal Investigator (PI). Reasons for discontinuation will include:
- Clinical or radiological disease progression.
- Unacceptable toxicity (e.g. unresolving grade ≥2 neuropathy or neutropenia)
- Any other reason deemed appropriate by investigator. Increases in PSA will not be a criterion for treatment discontinuation in the absence of clinical or radiological progression. Participants who discontinue treatment should continue to be followed up until death.
Post-treatment Follow-up
Follow up data will be collected on all patients entering part 2 of the study who received carboplatin treatment on this trial until death, including cause of death. Survival data will be collected on all participants on the BARCODE 2 trial. Participants who discontinue treatment should continue to be followed up until death.
Discontinuation from Follow-up
If a patient withdraws from further follow-up, a trial deviation form should be submitted to Oncogenetics Team stating whether the patient has withdrawn consent for information to be sent to the Oncogenetics Team or whether they simply no longer wish to attend trial follow up visits. In the very rare event that a patient requests that their data is removed from the study entirely, the implications of this should be discussed with the patient first to ensure that this is their intent and, if confirmed, the Oncogenetics Team should be notified in writing. If this request is received after results have been published the course of action will be agreed between the Sponsor and Independent Data Monitoring and Steering Committee.
Trial Management
A Trial Management Group (TMG) will be set up and will include the Chief Investigator, the Trial Statistician and Trial Manager. Key study personnel will be invited to join the TMG as appropriate to ensure representation from a range of professional groups, including a PI from a Participant Identification Centre (PIC). Membership will include a lay/consumer representative who will receive support and training as deemed necessary. The TMG will meet at regular intervals, and at least annually. The TMG have operational responsibility for the conduct of the trial.
Independent Data Monitoring and Steering Committee (IDMSC)
A joint Independent Data Monitoring and Steering Committee (IDMSC) will be set up to oversee the safety of the trial participants, monitor the data produced by the trial, put these data into overall context and supervise the progress of the trial towards its interim and overall objectives.
Publication and Data Sharing Policy
The main trial results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal, on behalf of all collaborators. Anonymised data can be applied for via the Data Access Committee.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
All study participants will be assessed according to the part 1 and/ or part 2 inclusion criteria depending on which part of the study they enter initially.
For Part 1 (genetic screening) of the study:
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Recorded diagnosis of prostate cancer with or without histological confirmation. Patients who have not previously undergone a prostate (or metastatic) biopsy but are confirmed to have a raised PSA (>80ng/ml at any time), metastatic disease on imaging and have undergone treatment for mCRPC are eligible.
- Castration-resistant disease defined as biochemical or radiological progression on/after treatment with orchidectomy or LHRH analogues as per PCWG3 criteria.
- Confirmed metastatic disease on conventional imaging methods such as CT, bone scan or PET imaging.
Current or previous treatment includes at least one of the following:
- Docetaxel (either in hormone sensitive or resistant setting; Patients who have completed treatment with or are currently undergoing Cabazitaxel chemotherapy are also eligible)
- Androgen receptor-directed therapy (e.g., Enzalutamide, Abiraterone)
- Adequate renal function measured by calculated GFR (Cockcroft-Gault) >30ml/min. If a participant had renal dysfunction that is expected to improve, they may be considered for part 1 of the study.
- Adequate haematological function to allow study entry in line with local hospital practice or at the investigator's discretion.
- WHO performance status 0-2 as assessed and documented by study doctor.
- Life expectancy >12 weeks
- Participants with stable, treated brain metastases will be eligible providing informed consent can be given and that other sites of measurable disease are present
- The subject is capable of understanding and complying with the protocol requirements and has signed the BARCODE 2 informed consent form.
In addition to the above, for Part 2 of the study:
- Confirmed pathogenic germline mutation in a DNA repair gene. (Participants with a known germline mutation will need to provide a report from the external laboratory where genetic testing was carried out)
- Previous treatment with docetaxel and androgen receptor-directed therapy (e.g., abiraterone or enzalutamide) with documented disease progression prior to entry to part 2 (rising PSA and/or radiographic progression). Patients previously treated with cabazitaxel and who have documented disease progression are also eligible.
- Adequate haematological function: Haemoglobin (Hb) ≥8.0g/dL, neutrophil count ≥1.5x109/L and platelets ≥100x109/L.
- Adequate liver function: Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) except for participants with known Gilbert's syndrome; AST and ALT ≤ 2.5x ULN in the presence of liver metastases.
- Adequate renal function: creatinine clearance >30ml/min measured by a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) clearance test. If a measured GFR test is not available, then calculated GFR is acceptable (measured GFR must be carried out by cycle 2 of carboplatin).
Exclusion Criteria (for part 1 and 2):
