Description:
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose of M3814 when given together with radium-223
dichloride or with radium-223 dichloride and avelumab and to see how well they work in
treating patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer that had spread to other places in
the body (metastatic). M3814 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the
enzymes needed for cell growth. Radioactive drugs, such as radium-223 dichloride, may carry
radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal
antibodies, such as avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may
interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This study is being done to
find out the better treatment between radium-223 dichloride alone, radium-223 dichloride in
combination with M3814, or radium-223 dichloride in combination with both M3814 and avelumab,
to lower the chance of prostate cancer growing or spreading in the bone, and if this approach
is better or worse than the usual approach for advanced prostate cancer not responsive to
hormonal therapy.

Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of peposertib (M3814) in combination with
radium-223 dichloride or in combination with radium-223 dichloride and avelumab in patients
with advanced metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) based on dose limiting
toxicities (DLTs) in the doublet or triplet combinations. (Phase 1) II. Radiographic
progression free survival (rPFS) will be evaluated based on both skeletal and extraskeletal
progression following Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) methodology. (Phase 2)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the time to the first symptomatic skeletal event [SSE]. II. To determine the
safety of radium-223 dichloride, M3814, and avelumab combination treatment.
III. To observe and record anti-tumor activity. IV. To evaluate progression free survival
(PFS) and overall survival (OS). V. To evaluate symptomatic skeletal events (SSE) per
standardized case report form (CRF) distinguishing between pathologic and non-pathogenic
fractures.
VI. To explore patient-reported symptomatic adverse events (AE) for tolerability of each
treatment arm.
VII. To examine the radium-223 dichloride bio-distribution and absorbed dose in each bone
metastatic lesions as well as elsewhere in the body including critical organs using
dosimetry.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To perform molecular profiling assays on malignant and normal tissues, including, but not
limited to, whole exome sequencing (WES), and messenger ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing
(RNAseq), in order to:
Ia. Identify potential predictive and prognostic biomarkers beyond any genomic alteration by
which treatment may be assigned, and Ib. Identify resistance mechanisms using genomic
deoxyribonucleic (DNA)- and RNA-based assessment platforms.
II. To contribute genetic analysis data from de-identified biospecimens to Genomic Data
Commons (GDC), a well annotated cancer molecular and clinical data repository, for current
and future research; specimens will be annotated with key clinical data, including
presentation, diagnosis, staging, summary treatment, and if possible, outcome.
III. To bank plasma and peripheral immune cells from patients to assess predictive biomarkers
of response at the Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN) biorepository at
Nationwide Children's Hospital.
IV. To correlate change in level of total alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline
phosphatase, and serum osteocalcin to rPFS and OS.
OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of peposertib, followed by a phase II
study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.
ARM A: Patients receive radium-223 dichloride intravenously (IV) over 1 minute on day 1.
Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.
ARM B: Patients receive radium-223 dichloride as in Arm A and peposertib orally (PO) once
daily (QD) or twice daily (BID) on days 3-26. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6
cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
ARM C: Patients receive radium-223 dichloride IV as in Arm A and peposertib PO QD or BID as
in Arm B. Patients also receive avelumab IV over 60 minutes on days 1 and 15 of cycles 2-6.
Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 3
months for up to 2 years.

the Investigator must stop at least 1 day prior to first M3814 dose. Because the lists
of these agents are constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a
frequently- updated medical reference. As part of the enrollment/informed consent

agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is
considering a new over-the- counter medicine or herbal product. The primary
