177Lu-PSMA, Niraparib/AA Plus Prednisone for Prostate Cancer (LUNAAR)

September 13, 2024 updated by: Baptist Health South Florida

Safety and Anti-tumor Activity of Lutetium-177 (177Lu)-PSMA-617 Along With Niraparib and Abiraterone Acetate Plus Prednisone in Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer - LUNAAR Study

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and possible side effects of Lutetium-177 (177Lu)-Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA)-617 along with niraparib and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone when it is given to people diagnosed with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and does not improve with hormonal therapies) at different dose levels. Once an optimal dose is selected, the researchers want to find out what how well these treatments work to improve survival and control the growth of the tumor.

  • Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to the excipients of Nira/AA tablets.
  • Current evidence of any medical condition that would make prednisone use contraindicated.
  • Received an investigational intervention (including investigational vaccines) or used an invasive investigational medical device within 30 days before the planned first dose of study medication

  • Participants who have had the following ≤ 28 days prior to enrollment

    1. A transfusion (platelets or red blood cells);
    2. Hematopoietic growth factors;
    3. Major surgery

    2. Receiving antiretroviral therapy that may interfere with the study medication
    3. CD4 (type of white blood cell) count <350 at screening.
    4. An acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-defining opportunistic infection within 6 months of the start of screening.
    5. Human immunodeficiency virus load >400 copies/mL

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Determination of the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D)
Time Frame: 6 weeks

RP2D is determined based on the number of participants experiencing a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during phase 1. DLT is defined as any of the following treatment-related adverse events (AE) during Cycle 1, per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) V5.

  • Grade 4 thrombocytopenia or Grade ≥3 requiring platelet transfusion
  • Grade 4 anemia or Grade ≥3 requiring blood transfusion
  • Grade 4 neutropenia ≥7 days, or Grade 3/4 associated with infection or fever >38.5°C
  • Seizure, any grade
  • Concurrent elevation of ALT/AST >3×ULN & bilirubin >2×ULN, unless concurrent elevation is related to biliary obstruction or otherwise unrelated to study treatment
  • Grade 3 fatigue >5 days
  • Grade 3 nausea >3 days, despite optimal medical therapy
  • Grade ≥3 hypertension despite receiving >2 weeks of optimal medical therapy
  • Grade ≥3 vomiting or diarrhea persisting >3 days, despite optimal medical therapy
  • Other treatment-related Grade ≥3 non-hematologic toxicity except Grade 3 rash
6 weeks
Prostatic-specific antigen (PSA)-50 response rate
Time Frame: 2 years
PSA-50 response is defined as a decrease ≥ 50% from baseline to the lowest post-baseline PSA result. This measure will be expressed as a percent of participants who experience this response.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS)
Time Frame: 2 years
rPFS is defined as the duration of time in months from treatment initiation to the first date of documented radiographic progression using conventional imaging or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. The radiographic progression will be assessed per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) 1.1 for soft tissue and Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) for bone lesions.
2 years
Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: 2 years
OS is defined as the duration of time in months between the first dose of study therapy and death from any cause (participants who have not died will be censored at the most recent last-known-alive date).
2 years
PSA-80 response rate
Time Frame: 2 years
PSA-80 response is defined as a decrease ≥ 80% from baseline to the lowest post-baseline PSA result. This measure will be expressed as a percent of participants who experience this response.
2 years
Duration of response (DOR)
Time Frame: 2 years
DOR is defined as the duration of time in months from when criteria are met for complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (whichever is recorded first) until the date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented or expiration. RECIST 1.1 criteria will be used for soft tissue lesions and PCWG3 criteria will be used for bone lesions.
2 years
Objective response rate (ORR)
Time Frame: 2 years
ORR is defined as the percent of participants who meet criteria for CR or PR. RECIST 1.1 criteria will be used for soft tissue lesions and PCWG3 criteria will be used for bone lesions.
