Saruparib in Combination With Physician's Choice of ARPI in Patients With mHSPC Previously Treated With Docetaxel or 177Lu-PSMA Therapy Without Disease Progression and PSA ≥ 0.2 ng/mL (EvoPAR-PR05)

The primary objective of this study is to measure efficacy of saruparib + physician's choice of ARPI compared with placebo + ARPI in men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) who have previously received docetaxel chemotherapy or a prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-directed lutetium-177 radioligand therapy with no evidence of disease progression and PSA ≥ 0.2 ng/mL.

  • Serum testosterone < 1.7 nmol/L or 50 ng/dL.
  • Palliative radiotherapy for symptoms management will be permitted and is to be completed at least 4 weeks prior to randomization for wide field radiation therapy and at least 2 weeks prior to randomization for limited field radiation therapy.

Exclusion criteria

  • Hypersensitivity to saruparib, ARPI or any excipients of these products or any contraindication or restriction based on the local label.
  • Any history of persisting (> 2 weeks) severe cytopenia due to any cause (eg, ANC< 0.5 × 10^9/L or platelets < 50 × 10^9/L)
  • Any known predisposition to bleeding (eg, active peptic ulceration, recent [within6 months] hemorrhagic stroke, proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
  • Spinal cord compression or brain metastases unless asymptomatic and stable.
  • History of MDS/AML or with features suggestive of MDS/AML
  • History of another primary malignancy, with some exceptions.

  • Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of the first dose or an anticipated need for major surgery during the study.
  • Switched ARPI agent in previous treatment for mHSPC due to disease progression. Note: if the ARPI agent was switched due to any reason other than disease progression and switch was prior to ICF signature, participants will be eligible.
  • Any prior treatment with a PARPi or platinum chemotherapy.
  • - -

Primary outcomes

  1. Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    Radiographic PFS (rPFS) is the primary endpoint of this study, defined as the time from randomization to radiographic progression, as assessed by the investigator per RECIST 1.1 (soft tissue) and/or PCWG3 criteria (bone), or death due to any cause.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 80 months

    OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause.

  2. Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    Radiographic PFS (rPFS) is the primary endpoint of this study, defined as the time from randomization to radiographic progression, as assessed by the investigator per RECIST 1.1 (soft tissue) and/or PCWG3 criteria (bone), or death due to any cause.

  3. Time to Second Progression or Death (PFS2)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    PFS2 is defined as the time from randomization to the earliest progression (defined as radiographic progression, clinical progression, or PSA progression) after initiation of first subsequent treatment following the initial investigator-assessed progression or death (ie, date of PFS2 event or censoring - date of randomization + 1).

  4. Time to First Subsequent Therapy or Death (TFST)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    TFST is defined as the time from randomization to the start date of the first subsequent anticancer therapy after discontinuation of randomized treatment, or death due to any cause (ie, date of first subsequent cancer therapy or death - date of randomization + 1).

  5. Symptomatic Skeletal Event-free Survival (SSE-FS)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    SSE-FS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the earliest of the following:

    • Use of radiation therapy to prevent or relieve skeletal symptoms.
    • Occurrence of new symptomatic pathological bone fractures (vertebral or non-vertebral).

    Radiographic documentation is required. A pathological fracture, as determined by investigator, is defined as associated with low or no trauma and deemed to have occurred at a site of bone metastasis.

    • Occurrence of spinal cord compression. Radiographic documentation is required.
    • Orthopedic surgical intervention for bone metastasis.
    • Death due to any cause.
  6. Time to Castration Resistance (TTCR)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    TTCR is defined as the time from randomization to the first castration-resistant event (radiographic disease progression, PSA progression per PCWG3, or SSE, whichever occurs first, with castrate levels of testosterone below 50 ng/dL).

  7. Time to PSA progression

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    Time to PSA progression, defined as the time from randomization to PSA progression per PCWG3 criteria.

  8. Time to deterioration in physical function (TTDPF)

    TTDPF is defined as the time from randomization to deterioration in PROMIS SF-PF scores.

  9. Time to pain progression (TTPP)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    TTPP is defined as the time from randomization to clinically meaningful pain progression based on a 2-point increase from baseline in the BPI-SF Item 3 'worst pain in 24 hours' score and/or initiation of/increase in opioid analgesic use.

  10. Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPI-SF)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months

    Change from baseline in BPI-SF worst pain score, pain severity and interference domain scores.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 56 months
