Sipuleucel-T (Sip-T) in Combination With N-803 in Metastatic Androgen Pathway Modulation Resistant (mAPMR) Prostate Cancer

This phase Ib single-center open-label de-escalation study uses a modified 3+3 design to determine the safety, tolerability, and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the combination of standard of care Sip-T and N-803 in patients with metastatic androgen pathway modulation resistant (mAPMR) prostate cancer. Patients will receive treatment for up to 8 weeks.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma.

  • Eligible for standard of care Sipuleucel-T.
  • Recovery to baseline or ≤ grade 1 from toxicities related to any prior treatments, unless AEs are clinically nonsignificant and/or stable on supportive therapy.
  • At least 18 years of age.
  • ECOG performance status ≤ 2
  • Adequate bone marrow and organ function as defined below:
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1,500 K/cumm without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support
  • Platelets ≥ 100,000 K/cumm without transfusion
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 10.0 g/dL
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x IULN
  • AST(SGOT) and ALT(SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x IULN
  • Calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault
  • PSA ≤ 200 ng/mL.
  • Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB approved written informed consent document. Legally authorized representatives may sign and give informed consent on behalf of study participants

Exclusion criteria

  • Rapidly progressing disease or symptomatic prostate cancer as assessed by the investigator.
  • Prior immunotherapy (e.g., anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-CTLA4) within the 6 months prior to enrollment.
  • Prior systemic radiotherapy (such as Ra-223, Lu177-PSMA) within the 6 months prior to enrollment. Prior palliative radiation therapy for bone metastasis within 2 weeks or any other radiation therapy within 4 weeks before first dose of study treatment is allowed. Prior definitive radiation therapy for localized prostate cancer is allowed.
  • Prior exposure to Sipuleucel-T.
  • Ongoing systemic immune suppression (oral steroids equivalent to 10 mg daily prednisone or less are allowed; topical, inhaled, and intra-articular steroids are allowed).
  • Currently receiving any other investigational therapeutic or imaging agents.
  • Patients with known brain metastases or cranial epidural disease unless adequately treated with radiotherapy and/or surgery (including radiosurgery) and stable for at least 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment after radiotherapy or at least 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment after major surgery (e.g., removal or biopsy of brain metastasis). Subjects must have complete wound healing from major surgery or minor surgery before first dose of study treatment. Eligible subjects must be neurologically asymptomatic and without corticosteroid treatment at the time of first dose of study treatment.
  • A history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to Sipuleucel-T or N-803 or other agents used in the study.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, or cardiac arrhythmia. Patients with a known history or current symptoms of cardiac disease, or history of treatment with cardiotoxic agents, should have a clinical risk assessment of cardiac function using the New York Heart Association Function Classification; to be eligible for this trial, patients should be a class 2B or better.
  • HIV-infected if not on effective anti-retroviral therapy with undetectable viral load for 6 months. Patients with HIV who are receiving effective anti-retroviral therapy and have had an undetectable viral load for at least 6 months are eligible. HIV testing not required in the absence of known history of infection.
  • Evidence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) that is detectable on suppressive therapy. Patients with evidence of chronic HBV infection with undetectable HBV viral load on suppressive therapy are eligible. HBV testing not required in the absence of known history of infection.
  • History of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection that has not been cured or that has a detectable viral load. Patients with a history of HCV that has been treated and cured are eligible. Patients with HCV infection who are currently on treatment and have an undetectable HCV viral load are eligible. HCV testing not required in the absence of known history of infection.
  • Uncontrolled infection with hepatitis A.

Treatment and study plan

sipuleucel-T

Biological

Sipuleucel-T is a cellular therapeutic vaccine given in 3 complete doses at 2-week intervals intravenously.

Other names: Provenge, SipT

N803

Biological

N-803 is a biologic that is administered subcutaneously in the abdominal area.

Primary outcomes

  1. Frequency of dose-limiting toxicities (Cohort 1 only)

    Time frame: Start of treatment (day 1 dose of Sip-T) through 14 days following the last dose of N-803 (total time up to 44 days)

    As assessed via CTCAE v6.0. Dose limiting toxicities will be evaluated according to protocol.

  2. Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) (Cohort 1 only)

    Time frame: Start of treatment (day 1 dose of Sip-T) through 14 days following the last dose of N-803 for all participants in Cohort 1 (total time up to 44 days)

    RP2D is defined as the highest dose of N-803 that has an overall DLT rate of less than 33% in total of 6 patients.

  3. Number of severe (grade 3+) adverse events measured via CTCAE v6.0

    Time frame: Start of treatment through 100 days after last dose of N-803 (total time up to 137 days)

  4. Number and type of adverse events measured via CTCAE v6.0

    Time frame: Start of treatment through 100 days after last dose of N-803 (total time up to 137 days)

Secondary outcomes

  1. PSA30 Response

    Time frame: Start of treatment to completion of follow-up (up to 26 months)

    PSA response rate is defined as the proportion of subjects who have PSA response as defined by at least 30% reduction in PSA level from baseline measured twice at least 3 weeks apart. PSA response is measured per PCWG3 criteria.

  2. PSA50 Response

    Time frame: Start of treatment to completion of follow-up (up to 26 months)

    PSA response rate is defined as the proportion of subjects who have PSA response as defined by at least 50% reduction in PSA level from baseline measured twice at least 3 weeks apart. PSA response is measured per PCWG3 criteria.

  3. PSA90 Response

    Time frame: Start of treatment to completion of follow-up (up to 26 months)

    PSA response rate is defined as the proportion of subjects who have PSA response as defined by at least 90% reduction in PSA level from baseline measured twice at least 3 weeks apart. PSA response is measured per PCWG3 criteria.

  4. Radiographic progression-free survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Start of treatment to date of progression or death or last follow-up (up to 26 months)

    rPFS is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of radiographic progression by PCWG3 or time of death or last follow-up, the event that occurs first. Patients who have not experienced either event at the time of analysis will be censored at their last radiographic scan date. All radiographic response criteria are assessed per PCWG3 criteria.

  5. Failure-free survival (FFS)

    Time frame: Start of treatment to date of any progression events or last follow-up (up to 26 months)

    Failure-free survival which is defined from date of treatment start to date of any progression events (radiographic progression, biochemical recurrence, or death, whichever is earlier) or date of last follow-up if experiencing no events

  6. Time to next therapy (TTNT)

    Time frame: Through completion of follow-up (up to 26 months)

  7. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: Start of treatment to death or last follow-up (up to 26 months)

    Overall survival is defined as the date of treatment start to date of death or date of last follow-up.
