Purpose

In this study, patients who have metastatic prostate cancer that does not respond to hormone treatment and who have mutations in certain cancer-related genes will be treated with docetaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy.

Detailed Description

      This is a phase 2 study of the combination of docetaxel and carboplatin in patients with
      germline inactivation of genes in the homologous recombination pathway, including BRCA1,
      BRCA2, and Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM).

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE To assess rate of 50% Prostate Specific Androgen (PSA) decline to docetaxel
      and carboplatin
    

Trial Arms

NameTypeDescriptionInterventions
Treatment (docetaxel, carboplatin)ExperimentalDocetaxel 60 mg/m2 will be administered on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. Carboplatin Area Under the Curve (AUC) 5 will be administered on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. Docetaxel and carboplatin should be administered per institutional guidelines. Treatment will be repeated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

        Patients meeting the following inclusion criteria will be eligible to participate in this
        study:

             (GnRH) analogues, antagonists or orchiectomy. Patients who have not had an orchiectomy
             must be maintained on effective GnRH analogue/antagonist therapy.

          5. Castration resistant prostate cancer as defined by serum testosterone < 50ng/ml and
             one of the following:

               -  PSA level of at least 2 ng/ml that has risen on at least 2 successive occasions
                  at least 1 week apart.

               -  Evaluable disease progression by modified RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in
                  Solid Tumors).

               -  Progression of metastatic bone disease on bone scan with > 2 new lesions.

          6. Prior therapy with abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide, or docetaxel. There is no limit
             to the number of prior treatment regimens.

          7. Presence of metastatic disease on scans.

          8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of ≤ 2.

          9. Life expectancy >12 weeks.

         10. No prior malignancy is allowed except:

               -  Adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or

               -  In situ carcinoma of any site or

               -  Other adequately treated malignancy for which the patient has been disease-free
                  for at least one year (any prior chemotherapy is allowed).

         11. Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below obtained within
             14 days prior to start of therapy:

               1. Absolute neutrophil count >1.5 x 109 cells/L

                  recombination from primary or metastatic tumor as assessed by a Clinical
                  Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) level assay for DNA sequencing may be
                  included.

               -  Patients with a signature of homologous recombination deficiency in primary or
                  metastatic tissue may be included (VA Puget Sound only).

          1. Currently receiving active therapy for other neoplastic disorders.

          2. Histologic evidence of small cell carcinoma (morphology alone - immunohistochemical
             evidence of neuroendocrine differentiation without morphologic evidence is not
             exclusionary).

          3. Prior treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy for prostate cancer.

          4. Known parenchymal brain metastasis.

          5. Active or symptomatic viral hepatitis or chronic liver disease.

             arterial thrombotic events in the past 6 months, severe or unstable angina, or New
             York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II-IV heart disease or cardiac ejection fraction
             measurement of < 35 % at baseline, if done.

          7. Treatment with an investigational therapeutic within 30 days of Cycle 1.

          8. Patients with dementia/psychiatric illness/social situations limiting compliance with
             study requirements or understanding and/or giving of informed consent are not eligible

          9. Any medical conditions, which, in the opinion of the investigators, would jeopardize
             either the patient or the integrity of the data obtained are not eligible.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Percentage of Patients Achieving >= 50% Reduction in PSA According to Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) Criteria
