A phase II study (AARDVARC) of AZD4635 in combination with durvalumab and cabazitaxel in patients with progressive, metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer. ESMO Open 2024; 9:103446. [PMID: 38838502 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2024.103446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This phase II nonrandomized study evaluated the efficacy and safety of AZD4635 in combination with durvalumab (Arm A) or durvalumab plus cabazitaxel (Arm B) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) previously treated with docetaxel and ≥1 novel hormonal agent. PATIENTS AND METHODS The primary endpoint was radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) per RECIST v1.1 (soft tissue) or the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 3 (bone). Secondary endpoints included safety, tolerability, overall survival, confirmed prostate-specific antigen (PSA50) response, pharmacokinetics, and objective response rate. Enrollment in Arm A was stopped following a sponsor decision unrelated to safety. The study was stopped based on the planned futility analysis due to low PSA50 response in Arm B. RESULTS In the final analysis (1 November 2021), 30 patients were treated (Arm A, n = 2; Arm B, n = 28). The median rPFS in Arm B was 5.8 months (95% confidence interval 4.2-not calculable). Median rPFS was 5.8 months versus 4.2 months for patients with high versus low blood-based adenosine signature. The most common treatment-related adverse events in Arm B were nausea (50.0%), diarrhea (46.4%), anemia and neutropenia (both 35.7%), asthenia (32.1%), and vomiting (28.6%). Overall, AZD4635 in combination with durvalumab or AZD4635 in combination with cabazitaxel and durvalumab showed limited efficacy in patients with mCRPC. CONCLUSIONS Although the safety profile of both combinations was consistent with known safety data of the individual agents, the results of this trial do not support further development of the combinations.

Surgery with or Without Darolutamide in High-risk and/or Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer: The SUGAR (CCAFU-PR2) Phase 2 Trial Rationale and Protocol. Eur Urol Oncol 2024; 7:494-500. [PMID: 37806843 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2023.09.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High-risk prostate cancer (PCa) patients frequently experience recurrence and progression after radical prostatectomy (RP). Neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) has not demonstrated a clear oncological benefit and is not currently recommended. OBJECTIVE The SUGAR trial is the first phase 2, randomised, controlled, multicentre, noncommercial, open-label study investigating single-agent perioperative darolutamide compared with the standard of care (ie, upfront RP, without neoadjuvant ADT). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS SUGAR aims to randomise 240 men affected by nonmetastatic PCa, with the major eligibility criteria being International Society of Urological Pathology grade group ≥4, seminal vesicle invasion at magnetic resonance imaging and/or clinically node-positive disease. Patients in the experimental arm will undergo neoadjuvant darolutamide monotherapy, RP, and adjuvant darolutamide, completing 9 mo of treatment. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The primary endpoint is noncurable recurrence-free survival, an innovative and clinically meaningful measure; the secondary endpoints encompass safety; recurrence-free, metastasis-free, and overall survival; pathological response; and quality of life. A predictive biomarker analysis will also be performed. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS Initial data suggest that intensified neoadjuvant treatment with androgen receptor signalling inhibitors (ARSIs) is associated with a sustained pathological response and may improve outcomes, via tumour downstaging and micrometastasis eradication. ARSI monotherapy could further enhance tolerability. CONCLUSIONS SUGAR will provide efficacy and safety information on perioperative darolutamide monotherapy compared with upfront RP, in a contemporary high-risk PCa population undergoing surgery. PATIENT SUMMARY The on-going SUGAR clinical trial evaluates 9 mo of darolutamide treatment in addition to radical prostatectomy, in men affected by prostate cancer with specific high-risk characteristics. It investigates whether this hormonal treatment can lower the rates of noncurable recurrences, maintaining a favourable tolerability profile.

Circulating Biomarkers Predictive of Treatment Response in Patients with Hormone-sensitive or Castration-resistant Metastatic Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review. Eur Urol Oncol 2024:S2588-9311(24)00132-9. [PMID: 38824003 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2024.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 04/26/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) harbors genomic alterations that may predict targeted therapy efficacy. These alterations can be identified not only in tissue but also directly in biologic fluids (ie, liquid biopsies), mainly blood. Liquid biopsies may represent a safer and less invasive alternative for monitoring patients treated for mPCa. Current research focuses on the description and validation of novel predictive biomarkers to improve precision medicine in mPCa. Our aim was to systematically review the current evidence on liquid biopsy biomarkers for predicting treatment response in mPCa. METHODS We systematically searched Medline, Web of Science, and evidence-based websites for publications on circulating biomarkers in mPCa between March 2013 and February 2024 for review. Endpoints were: prediction of overall survival, biochemical or radiographic progression-free survival after treatment (chemotherapy, androgen deprivation therapy, androgen receptor pathway inhibitors [ARPIs], immunotherapy, or PARP inhibitors [PARPIs]). For each biomarker, the level of evidence (LOE) for clinical validity was attributed: LOE IA and IB, high level of evidence; LOE IIB and IIC, intermediate level; and LOE IIIC and LOE IV-VD, weak level. KEY FINDINGS AND LIMITATIONS The predictive value of each biomarker for the response to several therapies was evaluated in both metastatic hormone-sensitive (mHSPC) and castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). In patients with mCRPC, BRCA1/2 or ATM mutations predicted response to ARPIs (LOE IB) and PARPIs (LOE IIB), while AR-V7 transcripts or AR-V7 protein levels in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) predicted response to ARPIs and taxanes (LOE IB). CTC quantification predicted response to cabazitaxel, abiraterone, and radium-223 (LOE IIB), while TP53 alterations predicted response to 177Lu prostate-specific membrane antigen radioligand treatment (LOE IIB). AR copy number in circulating tumor DNA before the first treatment line and before subsequent lines predicted response to docetaxel, cabazitaxel, and ARPIs (LOE IIB). In mHSPC, DNA damage in lymphocytes was predictive of the response to radium-223 (LOE IIB). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS BRCA1/2, ATM, and AR alterations detected in liquid biopsies may help clinicians in management of patients with mPCa. The other circulating biomarkers did not reach the LOE required for routine clinical use and should be validated in prospective independent studies. PATIENT SUMMARY We reviewed studies assessing the value of biomarkers in blood or urine for management of metastatic prostate cancer. The evidence indicates that some biomarkers could help in selecting patients eligible for specific treatments.

Abstract
Despite several improvements in outcomes, metastatic prostate cancer remains deadly. Alterations in the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway are associated with more aggressive disease. Olaparib and rucaparib, two poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, have received approval from the authorities of several countries for their anti-tumoral effects in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancers harboring HRR gene alterations, in particular BRCA2. More recently, it has been hypothesized that new hormonal therapies (NHTs) and PARP inhibitors (PARPi) could have synergistic actions and act independently of HRR deficiency. This review proposes to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of PARPi used as monotherapy or in combination with NHTs and whether there is a need for molecular selection.

Abstract
While androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) has been the standard of care for patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC), recent strategies like intensification of systemic treatment [12] (i.e. adding another treatment to ADT) and radiotherapy have improved overall survival. PROFILE, a national retrospective multicentric real world study, involved patients with mCSPC recruited by medical oncologists, urologists, and radiation oncologists, and who started treatment between November 2020 and May 2021. Patients by sites were included consecutively. Data were collected from medical records. Primary objectives were to:(1)describe retrospectively the characteristics of whole population of patients with mCSPC as well as subgroups defined by prognostic factors in France at diagnosis; (2) identify current practices for managing mCSPC in a real-life clinical setting. Among the 416 patients with mCSPC included in the PROFILE study, 315 (76%) were synchronous (metastasis at the initial diagnosis) and 101 (24%) were metachronous patients (metastasis diagnosed post-progression). A majority (83% of synchronous and 73% of metachronous patients) received an intensified systemic treatment (ADT plus ARSI [androgen-receptor signaling inhibitors] ± chemotherapy ± primary tumour radiotherapy ± metastasis-directed therapy (MDT)), while only 40% of low-volume patients received prostate radiotherapy. This study depicts the standardization of new therapeutic strategies for patients with mCSPC in France with most of them receiving an intensified treatment, mainly with ADT + ARSI (64% of synchronous intensified patients and 76% of metachronous intensified patients). Most of patients were assessed using conventional imaging (CT scan and/or bone scan). Overall, PROFILE results are in line with French and European guidelines for diagnosis, management, and follow-up of such patients. [12,13].

Eur Urol Oncol 2024:S2588-9311(24)00116-0.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Combination of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is a standard of care for patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer (PCa). However, 6 months of ADT generates multiple side effects impacting quality of life (QoL). Darolutamide (an androgen receptor targeting agent [ARTA]) is associated with low blood-brain barrier penetrance and less drug-drug interaction. OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy of a combination of 6 months of darolutamide with EBRT to treat patients with unfavorable intermediate-risk PCa. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS The DARIUS trial is a multicenter randomized non comparative phase 2 trial, randomizing the 6-months darolutamide + EBRT arm versus 6-months ADT + EBRT in patients with unfavorable intermediate-risk PCa. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The primary endpoint is a biological response defined as prostate-specific antigen ≤0.1 ng/ml at month six of darolutamide or ADT. The key secondary endpoints are biochemical recurrence-free survival, disease-free survival, safety, and QoL. Ancillary studies using radiomics and genomic classifier are planned. Sixty-two patients will be included. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS In this population of patients requiring ADT combined with EBRT, the use of an ARTA alone, such as darolutamide, may demonstrate antitumoral efficacy while minimizing toxicity and maintaining QoL. Limitations are mainly inherent to the open-label design of this study. CONCLUSIONS Six months of darolutamide + EBRT compared with 6 months of ADT + EBRT may be efficient in terms of a biological response, avoiding toxicity and altered QoL attributable to ADT in patients with unfavorable intermediate-risk PCa. PATIENT SUMMARY The ongoing DARIUS clinical trial assesses short-term (6 months) darolutamide treatment in association with external beam radiation therapy in men with localized prostate cancer. The trial investigates whether single-agent darolutamide can improve the biological response while maintaining a favorable tolerability profile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Darolutamide and enzalutamide are second-generation androgen receptor inhibitors with activity in men with castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and different toxicity profiles. OBJECTIVE ODENZA is a prospective, randomized, multicenter, cross-over, phase 2 trial designed to assess preference between darolutamide and enzalutamide in men with asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic metastatic CRPC (mCRPC). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive either darolutamide 1200 mg/d for 12 wk followed by enzalutamide 160 mg/d for 12 wk or enzalutamide followed by darolutamide. In both arms, the second treatment was given in absence of cancer progression. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The primary endpoint was patient preference between the two drugs, as assessed by a preference questionnaire (p value calculated with the Prescott test). After week 24, patients entered an extension period during which they received their preferred treatment until progression or toxicity. The main secondary objectives included reasons for patient preference, response at week 12, tolerance of each drug, and measurement compared with baseline of cognitive outcomes assessed using tablet questionnaires. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS Overall, 249 patients, with a median age of 72 yr, were randomized. Among the 200 patients who fulfilled the preplanned criteria for the evaluation of the primary endpoint of preference, 97 (49% [41; 56]), 80 (40% [33; 47]), and 23 (12% [7; 16]) chose darolutamide, chose enzalutamide, and had no preference, respectively (p = 0.92). Reduced fatigue, easier administration, and better quality of life were the main criteria that influenced patient choice. A moderate benefit in episodic memory from darolutamide was observed for the acquisition of new information (least square [LS] means difference = 2.2, effect size = 0.5) and for the recall of that information after a brief delay (LS means difference = 0.7, effect size = 0.3). Using the Brief Fatigue Inventory questionnaire, patients reported greater fatigue with enzalutamide (3.3 [3.0; 3.6]) than with darolutamide (2.7 [2.4; 3.0]). There was no difference in terms of depression, seizures, and falls. CONCLUSIONS The study did not show a difference in preference between the two treatments. In men with mCRPC, darolutamide was associated with a clinically meaningful benefit in episodic memory and less fatigue compared with enzalutamide. PATIENT SUMMARY Preference between darolutamide and enzalutamide was well balanced in men with castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Darolutamide was associated with a significant benefit in verbal learning and less fatigue compared with enzalutamide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), bone and visceral metastases have a poor prognosis, while endocrine gland metastases have a more favorable prognosis. Gastrointestinal metastases (GIMs) are rare, and their prognosis is still poorly understood. OBJECTIVES To report clinical presentations, patient characteristics, therapeutic strategies, and prognosis of GIMs from RCC. METHODS We retrospectively collected data from RCC patients presenting GIMs, in 10 French GETUG centers, between 2000 and 2021. RESULTS We identified 74 patients with 87 GIMs, mostly gastric or duodenal. The median age at GIM diagnosis was 69 years and 76% of patients already had other metastases. GIMs occurred after a median duration of 5.4 years (IC95%=[4.2-7.1]) and 1.9 years (IC95%=[1.2-3.8]) from RCC diagnosis and first metastasis, respectively. GIMs were symptomatic in 52 patients (70%), with anemia in 41 patients (55%) and/or gastrointestinal bleeding in 31 patients (42%). Only 22 asymptomatic patients (30%) were fortuitously diagnosed. GIM management consisted of systemic treatment only in 29 GIMs (33%), local treatment only in 23 GIMs (26%), and both local and systemic treatment in 18 GIMs (21%). For 17 GIMs (20%), there was no therapeutic modification. After diagnosis of GIM, median overall survival was 19 months. CONCLUSION We report the largest retrospective cohort of GIMs in RCC patients. They should be suspected in case of anemia or gastrointestinal bleeding in any patient with a history of RCC. Their management varies widely depending on their location in the digestive tract and whether or not they are symptomatic.

Abstract
Metastatic bladder and renal cancers account respectively for 2.1% and 1.8% of cancer deaths worldwide. The advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized the management of metastatic disease, by demonstrating considerable improvements in overall survival. However, despite initial sensitivity to immune checkpoint inhibitors for most patients, both bladder and renal cancer are associated with short progression-free survival and overall survival, raising the need for further strategies to improve their efficacy. Combining systemic therapies with local approaches is a longstanding concept in urological oncology, in clinical settings including both oligometastatic and polymetastatic disease. Radiation therapy has been increasingly studied with either cytoreductive, consolidative, ablative or immune boosting purposes, but the long-term impact of this strategy remains unclear. This review intends to address the impact of radiation therapy with either curative or palliative intent, for synchronous de novo metastatic bladder and renal cancers.

Abstract
PURPOSE Clinical target volume (CTV) delineation for pelvic lymph nodes in prostate cancer is currently based on 3 consensus guidelines with some inherent discrepancies. To improve the reproducibility in nodal delineation, the Francophone Group of Urological Radiotherapy (Groupe Francophone de Radiothérapie Urologique [GFRU]) worked toward proposing an easily applicable, reproducible, and practice-validated contouring guideline for pelvic nodal CTV. METHODS AND MATERIALS The nodal CTV data sets of a high-risk node-negative prostate cancer clinical case contoured by 86 radiation oncologists participating in a GFRU contouring workshop were analyzed. CTV volumes were defined before and after a structured presentation of literature data on lymphatic drainage pathways and patterns of nodal involvement and relapse, illustrated using a reference contour (CRef) defined by 3 GFRU experts. The consistency between the participants' contours and CRef was assessed quantitively by means of the Simultaneous Truth and Performance Level Estimation (STAPLE) method, the Dice coefficient, and the Hausdorff distance and qualitatively using a count map. These results combined with the literature review were thoroughly discussed among GFRU experts to reach a consensus. RESULTS From the 86 workshop participants, the volume of the STAPLE CTV was 591 cc compared with 502 cc for CRef. The Dice coefficient of the STAPLE CTV compared with the experts' CRef was 0.736 (±0.084) before and 0.823 (±0.070) after the workshop; the standard deviation decreased from 11.5% to 8.5% over the workshop. The Hausdorff distance of the STAPLE CTV compared with the CRef was 34.5 mm (±12.4) before the workshop and 21.8 mm (±9.3) after the workshop. Four areas of significant interobserver variability were identified, and a consensus was reached. CONCLUSIONS Using a robust methodology, our cooperative group proposed an easily applicable, reproducible, and practice-validated guideline for the delineation of the pelvic CTV in prostate cancer, useful for implementation in daily practice and clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer is regulated by steroid hormones, even in castration-resistant disease. ODM-208, a novel inhibitor of cytochrome P450 11A1 (which catalyzes the first step of steroid-hormone biosynthesis), was investigated in patients with heavily pretreated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). METHODS: CYPIDES is a first-in-human phase 1 (3 + 3 design) and phase 2 study. We administered ODM-208 twice daily with glucocorticoid/mineralocorticoid replacement and ongoing androgen deprivation therapy to adults with previously treated mCRPC, regardless of androgen receptor gene (AR) ligand-binding domain mutations (phase 1) and with activating AR ligand-binding domain mutations (ARmut; phase 2). Safety, pharmacokinetics, steroid-hormone pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy were the key outcomes. RESULTS: Ninety-two patients received one or more doses of ODM-208: 47 in phase 1 (20 [42.6%] with ARmut) and 45 in phase 2 (all ARmut). A dose of ODM-208 of 5 mg twice a day with dexamethasone 1 mg/fludrocortisone 0.1 mg provided a balance between decreased steroidogenesis and toxicity. Treatment-related adrenal insufficiency was the most common toxicity in phase 1 (n=17, 36.2%; necessitating ODM-208 discontinuation in one patient); this toxicity occurred in six patients (13.3%) at 5 mg twice a day in phase 2. Median circulating testosterone levels declined from 3.0 ng/dl (interquartile range, 1.3 to 6.2 ng/dl) at baseline to undetectable levels within the first week of ODM-208 5 mg twice a day treatment in 46 of 53 (87%) patients. A decrease in prostate-specific antigen levels of 50% or more occurred in 14 of 19 (73.7%) patients with ARmut and 2 of 23 (8.7%) patients with AR wild type in phase 1 and in 24 of 45 (53.3%) patients with ARmut in phase 2. CONCLUSIONS: ODM-208 potently inhibited steroid-hormone biosynthesis with the expected toxicity of adrenal insufficiency. Evidence of antitumor activity was observed in this heavily pretreated mCRPC population, especially in those with ARmut. (Funded by Orion Pharma; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03436485.)

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a public health issue. The diagnostic strategy for PCa is well codified and assessed by digital rectal examination, PSA testing and multiparametric MRI, which may or may not lead to prostate biopsies. The formal benefit of organized PCa screening, studied more than 10 years ago at an international scale and for all incomers, is not demonstrated. However, diagnostic and therapeutic modalities have evolved since the pivotal studies. The contribution of MRI and targeted biopsies, the widespread use of active surveillance for unsignificant PCa, the improvement of surgical techniques and radiotherapy… have allowed a better selection of patients and strengthened the interest for an individualized approach, reducing the risk of overtreatment. Aiming to enhance coverage and access to screening for the population, the European Commission recently promoted the evaluation of an organized PCa screening strategy, including MRI. The lack of screening programs has become detrimental to the population and must shift towards an early detection policy adapted to the risk of each individual.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Integrating telemedicine into cancer care remains a major challenge. There are little clinical evidence for teleconsultation efficacy and safety in daily oncology practice. This study as a pioneering experience, aimed to analyze patient and physician opinions regarding the implementation of telemedicine consultations, and to identify major limitations of telehealth spread in an oncology institute. MATERIAL AND METHODS During COVID-19 lockdown, patients and physicians who took part to at least one video-based teleconsultation between March and May 2020, were enrolled in this observational study. All eligible patients received an anonymous online questionnaire. On the other hand, all physicians eligible to participate were asked through email to complete a questionnaire. RESULTS In this study, 31 physicians and 304 patients consented to participate in this study by answering the questionnaire and were included. Regarding telemedicine satisfaction, 65.8% of patients were satisfied. The lack of clinical examination was the major limitation reported by 77% of patients. Patients belonging to a high socio-professional category were statistically more dissatisfied with the relationship with their doctor (OR = 2.31 and 95% CI [1.12; 4.74]). CONCLUSION This study showed promising results of incorporating video-based teleconsultations into cancer patient management. Randomized clinical trials are needed in order to accelerate the digital implementation in clinical practice.

Salvage Radical Prostatectomy for Recurrent Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review (French ccAFU). Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:5485. [PMID: 38001745 PMCID: PMC10670522 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15225485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to systematically review the current evidence regarding the oncological and functional outcomes of salvage radical prostatectomy (sRP) for recurrent prostate cancer. A systematic review was conducted throughout September 2022 using the PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, and Embase databases. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines were followed to identify eligible studies. A total of 55 studies (3836 patients) met our eligibility criteria. The vast majority of men included had radiation therapy (including brachytherapy) as their first-line treatment (n = 3240, 84%). Other first-line treatments included HIFU (n = 338, 9%), electroporation (n = 59, 2%), proton beam therapy (n = 54, 1.5%), cryotherapy (n = 34, 1%), focal vascular targeted photodynamic therapy (n = 22, 0.6%), and transurethral ultrasound ablation (n = 19, 0.5%). Median preoperative PSA, at the time of recurrence, ranged from 1.5 to 14.4 ng/mL. The surgical approach was open in 2300 (60%) cases, robotic in 1465 (38%) cases, and laparoscopic in 71 (2%) cases. Since 2019, there has been a clear increase in robotic versus conventional surgery (1245 versus 525 cases, respectively). The median operative time and blood loss ranged from 80 to 297 min and 75 to 914 mL, respectively. Concomitant lymph node dissection was performed in 2587 cases (79%). The overall complication rate was 34%, with a majority of Clavien grade I or II complications. Clavien ≥ 3 complications ranged from 0 to 64%. Positive surgical margins were noted in 792 cases (32%). The median follow-up ranged from 4.6 to 94 months. Biochemical recurrence after sRP ranged from 8% to 51.5% at 12 months, from 0% to 66% at 22 months, and from 48% to 59% at 60 months. The specific and overall survival rates ranged from 13.4 to 98% and 62 to 100% at 5 years, respectively. Urinary continence was maintained in 52.1% of cases. sRP demonstrated acceptable oncological outcomes. These results, after sRP, are influenced by several factors, and above all by pre-treatment assessment, including imaging, with the development of mpMRI and metabolic imaging. Our results demonstrated that SRP can be considered a suitable treatment option for selected patients, but the level of evidence remains low.

Ann Oncol 2023; 34:772-782. [PMID: 37399894 PMCID: PMC10849465 DOI: 10.1016/j.annonc.2023.06.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and BRCA alterations have poor outcomes. MAGNITUDE found patients with homologous recombination repair gene alterations (HRR+), particularly BRCA1/2, benefit from first-line therapy with niraparib plus abiraterone acetate and prednisone (AAP). Here we report longer follow-up from the second prespecified interim analysis (IA2). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with mCRPC were prospectively identified as HRR+ with/without BRCA1/2 alterations and randomized 1 : 1 to niraparib (200 mg orally) plus AAP (1000 mg/10 mg orally) or placebo plus AAP. At IA2, secondary endpoints [time to symptomatic progression, time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy, overall survival (OS)] were assessed. RESULTS Overall, 212 HRR+ patients received niraparib plus AAP (BRCA1/2 subgroup, n = 113). At IA2 with 24.8 months of median follow-up in the BRCA1/2 subgroup, niraparib plus AAP significantly prolonged radiographic progression-free survival {rPFS; blinded independent central review; median rPFS 19.5 versus 10.9 months; hazard ratio (HR) = 0.55 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.39-0.78]; nominal P = 0.0007} consistent with the first prespecified interim analysis. rPFS was also prolonged in the total HRR+ population [HR = 0.76 (95% CI 0.60-0.97); nominal P = 0.0280; median follow-up 26.8 months]. Improvements in time to symptomatic progression and time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy were observed with niraparib plus AAP. In the BRCA1/2 subgroup, the analysis of OS with niraparib plus AAP demonstrated an HR of 0.88 (95% CI 0.58-1.34; nominal P = 0.5505); the prespecified inverse probability censoring weighting analysis of OS, accounting for imbalances in subsequent use of poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase inhibitors and other life-prolonging therapies, demonstrated an HR of 0.54 (95% CI 0.33-0.90; nominal P = 0.0181). No new safety signals were observed. CONCLUSIONS MAGNITUDE, enrolling the largest BRCA1/2 cohort in first-line mCRPC to date, demonstrated improved rPFS and other clinically relevant outcomes with niraparib plus AAP in patients with BRCA1/2-altered mCRPC, emphasizing the importance of identifying this molecular subset of patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To review current evidence regarding the management of de novo, oligometastatic, castration-sensitive prostate cancer (PCa). METHODS A literature search was conducted on PubMed/Medline and a narrative synthesis of the evidence was performed in August 2022. RESULTS Oligometastatic disease is an intermediate state between localized and aggressive metastatic PCa defined by ≤ 3-5 metastatic lesions, although this definition remains controversial. Conventional imaging has limited accuracy in detecting metastatic lesions, and the implementation of molecular imaging could pave the way for a more personalized treatment strategy. However, oncological data supporting this strategy are needed. Radiotherapy to the primary tumor should be considered standard treatment for oligometastatic PCa (omPCa). However, it remains to be seen whether local therapy still has an additional survival benefit in patients with de novo omPCa when treated with the most modern systemic therapy combinations. There is insufficient evidence to recommend cytoreductive radical prostatectomy as local therapy; or stereotactic body radiotherapy as metastasis-directed therapy in patients with omPCa. Current data support the use of intensified systemic therapy with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and next-generation hormone therapies (NHT) for patients with de novo omPCa. Docetaxel has not demonstrated benefit in low volume disease. There are insufficient data to support the use of triple therapy (i.e., ADT + NHT + Docetaxel) in low volume disease. CONCLUSION The present review discusses current data in de novo, omPCa regarding its definition, the increasing role of molecular imaging, the place of local and metastasis-directed therapies, and the intensification of systemic therapies.

Abstract
PURPOSE There is an unmet need for therapeutic options that prolong survival for patients with heavily pretreated, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The phase III, open-label KEYLYNK-010 study evaluated pembrolizumab plus olaparib versus a next-generation hormonal agent (NHA) for biomarker-unselected, previously treated mCRPC. METHODS Eligible participants had mCRPC that progressed on or after abiraterone or enzalutamide (but not both) and docetaxel. Participants were randomly assigned (2:1) to pembrolizumab plus olaparib or NHA (abiraterone or enzalutamide). The dual primary end points were radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) by blinded independent central review per Prostate Cancer Working Group-modified RECIST 1.1 and overall survival (OS). Time to first subsequent therapy (TFST) was a key secondary end point. Safety and objective response rate (ORR) were secondary end points. RESULTS Between May 30, 2019, and July 16, 2021, 529 participants were randomly assigned to pembrolizumab plus olaparib and 264 to NHA. At final rPFS analysis, median rPFS was 4.4 months (95% CI, 4.2 to 6.0) with pembrolizumab plus olaparib and 4.2 months (95% CI, 4.0 to 6.1) with NHA (hazard ratio [HR], 1.02 [95% CI, 0.82 to 1.25]; P = .55). At final OS analysis, median OS was 15.8 months (95% CI, 14.6 to 17.0) and 14.6 months (95% CI, 12.6 to 17.3), respectively (HR, 0.94 [95% CI, 0.77 to 1.14]; P = .26). At final TFST analysis, median TFST was 7.2 months (95% CI, 6.7 to 8.1) versus 5.7 months (95% CI, 5.0 to 7.1), respectively (HR, 0.86 [95% CI, 0.71 to 1.03]). ORR was higher with pembrolizumab plus olaparib versus NHA (16.8% v 5.9%). Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 34.6% and 9.0% of participants, respectively. CONCLUSION Pembrolizumab plus olaparib did not significantly improve rPFS or OS versus NHA in participants with biomarker-unselected, heavily pretreated mCRPC. The study was stopped for futility. No new safety signals occurred.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) remains a lethal disease with current standard-of-care therapies. Homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alterations, including BRCA1/2 alterations, can sensitize cancer cells to poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibition, which may improve outcomes in treatment-naïve mCRPC when combined with androgen receptor signaling inhibition. METHODS MAGNITUDE (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03748641) is a phase III, randomized, double-blinded study that evaluates niraparib and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (niraparib + AAP) in patients with (HRR+, n = 423) or without (HRR-, n = 247) HRR-associated gene alterations, as prospectively determined by tissue/plasma-based assays. Patients were assigned 1:1 to receive niraparib + AAP or placebo + AAP. The primary end point, radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) assessed by central review, was evaluated first in the BRCA1/2 subgroup and then in the full HRR+ cohort, with secondary end points analyzed for the full HRR+ cohort if rPFS was statistically significant. A futility analysis was preplanned in the HRR- cohort. RESULTS Median rPFS in the BRCA1/2 subgroup was significantly longer in the niraparib + AAP group compared with the placebo + AAP group (16.6 v 10.9 months; hazard ratio [HR], 0.53; 95% CI, 0.36 to 0.79; P = .001). In the overall HRR+ cohort, rPFS was significantly longer in the niraparib + AAP group compared with the placebo + AAP group (16.5 v 13.7 months; HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.56 to 0.96; P = .022). These findings were supported by improvement in the secondary end points of time to symptomatic progression and time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy. In the HRR- cohort, futility was declared per the prespecified criteria. Treatment with niraparib + AAP was tolerable, with anemia and hypertension as the most reported grade ≥ 3 adverse events. CONCLUSION Combination treatment with niraparib + AAP significantly lengthened rPFS in patients with HRR+ mCRPC compared with standard-of-care AAP. [Media: see text].

Abstract
Infection of SARS-CoV-2 among health workers (HWs) in contact with cancer patients has been a major issue since the beginning of the pandemic. We aimed to assess the serological immune status of SARS-CoV-2 infection among these HWs. A prospective cohort study was initiated in the comprehensive cancer center of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region (NA, France). Volunteer HWs working on March 2020 without active infection or symptoms of COVID-19 completed a self-questionnaire and had a blood test at inclusion, at 3 and 12 months. Positive serological status of SARS-CoV-2 infection was defined by anti-nucleocapsid antibodies and/or IgG anti-spike antibodies, except at 12 months due to vaccine. Half of the HWs were included (N = 517) and 89% were followed for three months (N = 500) and one year (N = 462). Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was 3.5% (95% CI: 1.9-5.1), 6.2% (95% CI: 4.1-8.3), and 10% (95% CI: 7.2-12.7) on June-September 2020, September 2020-January 2021, and June-October 2021, respectively. At 12 months, 93.3% had detectable antibodies with 80% vaccinated in the first three months of vaccine availability. The COVID-19-free policy of the institution, respect for barrier gestures, high and early vaccination of HWs, and low prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in NA may explain the low rate of seropositivity among the HWs of the Institut Bergonié.

Abstract
PURPOSE The diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa) still relies on the performance of both targeted (TB) and systematic biopsies (SB). Micro-ultrasound (mUS)-guided biopsies demonstrated a high sensitivity in detecting clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa), which could be comparable to that of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-TB, but their added value has not been compared to SB yet. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis, based on Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science, in accordance with PRISMA guidelines, to compare mUS-guided biopsies to SB. RESULTS Based on the literature search of 2957 articles, 15 met the inclusion criteria (2967 patients). Most patients underwent mUS-guided biopsies, followed by MRI-TB and SB. Respectively 5 (n = 670) and 4 (n = 467) studies, providing raw data on SB, were included in a random-effect meta-analysis of the detection rate of csPCa, i.e. Gleason Grade Group (GGG) ≥ 2 or non-csPCa (GGG = 1). Overall, PCa was detected in 56-71% of men, with 31.3-49% having csPCa and 17-25.4% having non-csPCa. Regarding csPCa, mUS-guided biopsies identified 196 and SB 169 cases (Detection Ratio (DR): 1.18, 95% CI 0.83-1.68, I2 = 69%), favoring mUS-guided biopsies; regarding non-csPCa, mUS-guided biopsies identified 62 and SB 115 cases (DR: 0.55, 95% CI 0.41-0.73, I2 = 0%), also favoring mUS-guided biopsies by decreasing unnecessary diagnosis. CONCLUSION Micro-ultrasound-guided biopsies compared favorably with SB for the detection of csPCa and detected fewer non-csPCa than SB. Prospective trials are awaited to confirm the interest of adding mUS-guided biopsies to MRI-TB to optimize csPCa detection without increasing overdiagnosis of non-csPCa.

Abstract
20 Background: Metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) primarily affects older men (OM). In this post-hoc analysis we investigated the safety and efficacy of abiraterone acetate + prednisone (AAP) in older (≥ 70 years) and younger (< 70 years) patients in PEACE-1. Methods: Men with de novo mCSPC were allocated to standard of care (SOC), SOC + AAP, SOC + radiotherapy (RXT), or SOC + AAP + RXT in this 2x2 design phase 3 trial. SOC was initially androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) alone, then from Oct 2015 onwards, the use of docetaxel (D) was authorized as part of SOC (at the investigator’s discretion until 2017, then, following the publication of LATITUDE and STAMPEDE trials, accrual was restricted to men receiving ADT+ D). Efficacy and safety in OM included in PEACE-1 were analyzed with the same methods used in the overall trial (Lancet 2022; 399: 1695-1707). Results: A total of 741 younger men (YM) (63%) and 431 OM (37%) were randomized. OM presented with more altered PS (ECOG 1-2) (36% vs 26% p=0.0003) and less frequent use of docetaxel (D) as part of SOC (66% vs 51% p<0.0001) than YM. Hypertension (56,5% vs 38,2%, p<0,001) and diabetes mellitus type 2 (15,5% vs 11%, p=0,029) were significantly more frequent in OM. Median time to AAP discontinuation was shorter (30.0 months [95%CI= 22.1; 35.4] vs 41.4 [95%CI= 31.5; 54.0] independently of D use and more frequently due to adverse events or death in the older than younger population. The benefit of AAP on radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) tended to decrease with age in the overall population: (HR 0.65, 95%CI 0.42-1.01) in OM vs (HR 0.49, 95%CI 0.35-0.69) for YM. The same trend was observed on overall survival (OS): (HR 0.95, 95%CI 0.72-1.25) for OM vs (HR: 0.73, 95%CI 0.58-0.92) for YM. On the other hand, in men fit to receive the SOC composed of ADT+D, the rPFS benefit of AAP was comparable in OM (HR 0.55, 95%CI 0.29-1.04) and in YM (HR 0.5, 95%CI 0.33-0.78). The OS benefit of AAP was: (HR 0.80, 95%CI 0.53-1.2) and (HR 0.71, 95%CI 0.52-0.95) in OM and YM, respectively. Safety data show that severe adverse events (grade 3-5) were more frequent in OM receiving AAP in comparison with YM (69% vs 61%) while there was no difference between older and YM not receiving AAP (48% vs 47%). Conclusions: This post-hoc analysis of PEACE-1 suggests that, in the overall population, OM derive a lower benefit, both in terms of rPFS and OS, from adding AAP to SOC versus YM. This decreased benefit is likely due to more toxicity leading to more frequent and earlier drug discontinuation. Importantly, in OM fit enough to receive ADT+D, the benefit of adding AAP to SOC was comparable to YM. Clinical trial information: NCT01957436 .

Abstract
173 Background: Pts with mCRPC who progress on docetaxel and new hormonal agents (NHAs) have few therapeutic options. In the CARD study of cabazitaxel, 35.7% of pts had PSA responses and 36.5% of pts had tumor responses. While immune checkpoint inhibitors have limited single-agent activity in mCRPC, the combination of the adenosine 2A receptor antagonist, AZD4635, with durvalumab may improve response to chemotherapy. This study assessed AZD4635 in combination with durvalumab (Arm A) or with durvalumab + cabazitaxel (Arm B) in pts with mCRPC. We report interim analysis results from Arm B (Arm A to be reported elsewhere). Methods: Eligible pts had histologically confirmed mCRPC, disease progression ≤6 months prior to enrollment, and were previously treated with docetaxel and 1 NHA. Pts received AZD4635 75 mg PO QD + durvalumab 1500 mg IV Q3W + cabazitaxel Q3W (dosed per locally approved label) for up to 10 cycles. The primary endpoint was radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS), by RECIST v1.1 (soft tissue) or PCWG3 (bone). Secondary endpoints included safety, pharmacokinetics, confirmed PSA50 response, and objective response rate by RECIST v1.1. A futility analysis was planned based on PSA50 responses (confirmed + unconfirmed) after approximately 30 pts were treated. Results: As of August 10, 2021, 28 pts received AZD4635 + durvalumab + cabazitaxel, and 21 pts were still on treatment. Most common adverse events (AEs) possibly related to treatment were nausea (50.0%), diarrhea (46.4%), asthenia, and vomiting (each 28.6%). Treatment-related febrile neutropenia occurred in 7.1% pts. Twelve (42.9%) pts had a serious AE possibly related to treatment. One AE possibly related to treatment led to death (myositis). Exposures of cabazitaxel and/or durvalumab did not change when combined with AZD4635. Median rPFS was 4.4 months (95% CI: 4.2–not calculable) with low percent maturity. Of 28 PSA-evaluable pts, 8 (28.6%) had PSA50 responses (4 confirmed). There were 5 unconfirmed partial responses by RECIST v1.1. Conclusions: Although efficacy data are immature, enrollment was stopped for futility. Safety of the combination was consistent with the known safety profiles of the individual agents. Clinical trial information: NCT04089553 .

Abstract
170 Background: In the primary analysis of the phase 3 MAGNITUDE study, NIRA/AAP significantly improved outcomes in pts with mCRPC and HRR gene alterations. Here, we report results from IA2 of secondary endpoints in MAGNITUDE. Methods: 423 eligible pts with mCRPC and HRR alterations (HRR+ cohort) were randomized 1:1 to receive NIRA/AAP (n = 212) or placebo (PBO)/AAP (n = 211). At the prespecified IA2, secondary endpoints (time to cytotoxic chemotherapy [TCC], time to symptomatic progression [TSP], overall survival [OS]) were formally assessed and the primary rPFS endpoint was updated in the HRR+ cohort, with sensitivity analysis performed for the subgroup of pts with BRCA alterations. Results: Updated descriptive rPFS results at IA2 (cutoff: June 17, 2022) were consistent with the primary analysis in the HRR+ cohort. In the BRCA subgroup, NIRA/AAP extended median rPFS to 19.5 mos vs 10.9 mos with PBO/AAP. NIRA/AAP led to statistically significant benefit in TSP in the HRR+ cohort with consistent benefit in the BRCA subgroup. Continued consistent improvement of TCC was seen with NIRA/AAP in the HRR+ cohort and in the BRCA subgroup. There was a trend towards improved OS with NIRA/AAP in the BRCA subgroup in the primary stratified analysis and the multivariate analysis (MVA), accounting for imbalances in key baseline characteristics. BRCA pts treated with NIRA/AAP experienced delayed time to worst pain intensity (HR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.44, 1.12; nominal P = 0.1338) and pain interference (HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.40, 1.12; nominal P = 0.1275) compared to PBO/AAP. The safety profile at IA2 was consistent with that of the primary analysis, with no new safety signals observed. Conclusions: With 26.8 months of median follow-up, there was a statistically significant and meaningful clinical benefit in TSP and meaningful clinical benefit in TCC. Additionally, updated rPFS results from MAGNITUDE IA2 were consistent with the primary analysis; OS benefit was not conclusive due to immaturity and will be followed through to final analysis. Taken together, these data continue to support the use of NIRA/AAP in pts with mCRPC and BRCA alterations or select other HRR gene alterations. Clinical trial information: NCT03748641 .

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the efficacy and safety of darolutamide maintenance after successful taxane chemotherapy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Swiss Group for Clinical Cancer Research (SAKK) 08/16 is a randomized phase II study. Patients with mCRPC who received prior androgen-receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) and subsequently had nonprogressive disease on a taxane were randomly assigned to darolutamide 600 mg twice a day or placebo twice a day. The primary end point was radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) at 12 weeks. Secondary end points were rPFS, event-free survival, overall survival (OS), prostate-specific antigen (PSA) 50% response rate, and adverse events. RESULTS Overall, 92 patients were recruited by 26 centers. Prior taxane was docetaxel in 93% and cabazitaxel in 7%. Prior ARPI was abiraterone in 60%, enzalutamide in 31%, and both in 9%. rPFS at 12 weeks was significantly improved with darolutamide (64.7% v 52.2%; P = .127). Median rPFS on darolutamide was 5.5 versus 4.5 months on placebo (hazard ratio [HR], 0.54; 95% CI, 0.32 to 0.91; P = .017), and median event-free survival was 5.4 versus 2.9 months (HR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.29 to 0.73; P = .001). PSA 50% response rate was improved (22% v 4%; P = .014). Median OS for darolutamide was 24 versus 21.3 months for placebo (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.3 to 1.26; P = .181). Treatment-related adverse events were similar in both arms. CONCLUSION SAKK 08/16 met its primary end point, showing that switch maintenance with darolutamide after prior taxane chemotherapy and at least one ARPI resulted in a statistically significant but clinically modest rPFS prolongation with good tolerability. The median OS with darolutamide maintenance appears promising. Should these findings be confirmed in a larger trial, maintenance treatment could be a novel strategy in managing patients with mCRPC, especially those who responded well to prior ARPI.

Abstract
PURPOSE The natural history of prostate cancer (PC) almost always evolves to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) status, sometimes comprising pure or mixed neuroendocrine prostate cancers (NEPC) differentiation. In CRPC, monitoring using only prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is not optimal since neuroendocrine differentiated cells do not secrete PSA. Thus, monitoring with PSA and chromogranin A (CgA) may be useful. This review aims to evaluate evidence for the usefulness of CgA assessments during the monitoring of prostate cancer. METHOD This review was based on three recent meta-analysis concerning CgA and prostate cancer. Further data were obtained from PubMed and Embase databases by searches using keywords, including chromogranin A and prostate cancer. RESULTS CgA levels remain largely unchanged during the early PC evolution. The development of NEPC is characterised by lower PSA secretion and increased CgA secretion. Data supporting the prognostic value of high CgA baseline levels for survival are contrasting and scarce. However, increasing CgA levels early during treatment of metastatic (m)CRPC suggests resistance to treatment and predicts shorter survival, particularly in men with high baseline levels of CgA levels. In men with mCRPC, the first-line chemotherapy may be more appropriate than other agents when baseline CgA levels are high. Also, increasing CgA levels during treatment may indicate disease progression and may warrant a change of therapy. CONCLUSION CgA monitoring at baseline and regularly during mCRPC management may be useful for monitoring disease evolution. An increased CgA baseline levels and increasing CgA levels may assist physicians with choosing and modifying therapy.
