NCT Number: NCT06029036

A Phase II Neoadjuvant Study of Darolutamide Plus ADT in Men With Localized Prostate Cancer

Scientific Rationale: High risk localized prostate cancer (PCa) is associated with higher rates of biochemical recurrence, clinical recurrence, metastasis and PCa-specific death. Novel hormone therapies(NHT) have shown a significant survival advantage with respect to classical ADT in later stages of PCa and have already been investigated in neoadjuvant setting.

PURPOSE: To assess antitumor effect by measuring pathological tumor volume with pathological downstaging following radical prostatectomy + pelvic lymph-node dissection (RP + PLND) for high-risk localized prostate cancer patients.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male ≥18 years of age.
  • Able to Sign informed consent form independently.
  • Non-metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate.
  • Subjects must have as least one of the following features according to NCCN definition of high-risk: Gleason score ≥8, or PSA >20ng/ml,or≥clinical T3a.
  • Subjects with pelvic lymph node involvement(N1) can be included.
  • Candidate for radical prostatectomy with or without pelvic lymph node dissection as per the investigator.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status score of 0 or 1.
  • Subjects must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:

Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL;Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mcL; Platelets ≥ 100,000/mcL, independent of transfusions/growth factors within 3 months of treatment start; Serum potassium ≥ 3.5 mmol/L; Serum total bilirubin ≤ 2.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (except in subjects with Gilbert's syndrome who have a total bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN, measure direct and indirect bilirubin and if direct bilirubin is ≤ 1.5 x ULN, subject may be eligible);Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN;Serum albumin ≥ 3.0 g/dL;Serum creatinine < 2.0 x ULN.

Exclusion criteria

  • Prostate cancer with neuroendocrine differentiation or small cell features
  • Distant metastasis based on conventional imaging (clinical stage M1). Nodal disease below the iliac bifurcation (clinical stage N1) is not an exclusion.
  • History of prior systemic or local therapy for prostate cancer, including pelvic radiation for prostate cancer.
  • Subjects who are planning bilateral orchidectomy during the treatment period of the study.
  • Intolerable with darolutamide or ADT treatment.
  • Candidates of other clinical trials.
  • Any prior malignancy within 5 years.
  • Complications include significant cardiovascular disease, active infection, astrointestinal disorders, or any other complications that in the opinion of the investigator.
  • Any condition that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude participation in this study.

Treatment and study plan

Darolutamide+ADT

Drug

Drug: Darolutamide

Darolutamide 600 mg, (two 300 mg tablets) administered orally twice daily. Swallow tablets whole. Take Darolutamide with food.

Primary outcomes

  1. Rate of pathological downstaging

    Time frame: 6 months

    Percentage of patients with tumor downstaging

Secondary outcomes

  1. pCR or MRD

    Time frame: 6 months

    Pathologic complete response or Minimal Residual Disease(defined as overall diameter <5 mm)

  2. PSM

    Time frame: 6 months

    Percentage of patients with positive surgical margins

  3. Rate of peri-operative complications

    Time frame: within 30 days of surgery

    including delay in surgery, intra-operative complications, and postoperative complications

  4. Biochemical complete response

    Time frame: 6 months

    PSA <0.1ng/ml prior to RP

  5. PSA undetectable rate

    Time frame: 12 months post-RP

    PSA<0.02 ng/ml

  6. 2-year biochemical progression-free survival, bPFS

    Time frame: 24 months post-RP

    PSA>0.2 ng/ml

  7. AEs/SAEs

    Time frame: Baseline up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug or before initiation of a new antitumor treatment, whichever occurred first

    The level of AEs defined by NCI-CTCAE v5.0. Safety assessments will be assessed and documented after initiation of study drug, regardless of relationship to study drug.
