A Randomized Phase II Trial of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) With or Without Durvalumab (MEDI4736) in Oligometastatic Recurrent Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer Patients


Condition: Node; Prostate, Bone Metastases, Prostate Cancer Patients

Intervention:

  • Combination Product: SBRT + Durvalumab
  • Radiation: SBRT

Purpose: As in other solid tumours, increasing evidence indicates that patients diagnosed with a limited number of prostate cancer metastases, so-called oligometastases, have a better prognosis compared with patients with extensive metastatic disease. Survival of patients with three or fewer metastases was superior compared with patients with more than three lesions. The introduction of novel imaging modalities such as Fluorocholine (FCH), Fuciclovine or Ga-PSMA PET CT has increased the detection of oligometastatic prostate cancer (PCa) recurrence, potentially justifying the use of a metastasis-directed therapy with radiotherapy (RT). Based on several studies, SBRT is now considered as a strongly validated option in oligometastatic prostate cancer. It is increasingly understood that cancers are recognized by the immune system, and, under some circumstances, the immune system may control or even eliminate tumors. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is transmembrane protein that has been speculated to play a major role in suppressing the immune system during particular events. PD-L1 is expressed in a broad range of cancers. Based on these findings, an anti-PD-L1 antibody could be used therapeutically to enhance antitumor immune responses in patients with cancer. Experimental data from multiple cancer models have provided cumulative evidence of an interaction of ionizing radiation with the systemic antitumor immunity and this has created several opportunities in the field. The oligometastatic setting appears to be the most relevant clinical situation to evaluate the immune response generated by radiotherapy and immune modifiers in patients with an intact immune system. The hypothesize is that Durvalumab will enhance immune response following SBRT targeting oligometastatic lesions. In this randomized 2:1 phase II trial of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy with or without durvalumab in oligometastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer patients, Durvalumab will be started one month prior to SBRT to be able to evaluate PSA and immune response to the drug. It will be combined with SBRT and then given adjuvantly for a total of 12 months.

Study Start Date: March 21, 2019

Phase: Phase 2

Eligibility:

  • Age: minimum 18 Years maximum N/A
  • Gender: Male

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Written informed consent obtained from the patient prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including screening evaluations 2. Age > or = 18 years at time of study entry 3. Histologically proven diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa) 4. PCa patients with a biochemical recurrence “Rising PSA” following treatment with curative intent (radical prostatectomy, primary radiotherapy or a combination of both) as defined by the EAU guidelines. 5. A maximum of 5 bone or lymph node metastases, seen only on FCH-PET CT or Ga-PSMA PET CT, not seen on conventional imaging assessments (bone scan or thorax, abdomen and pelvis CT scan). 6. WHO performance state 0-1 7. Controlled primary tumor. In case the PSA > 0,2 ng/ml in the postoperative setting patients are eligible if a multiparametic MRI or PET scan of the prostate bed rules out a local relapse. Patients after primary radiotherapy should undergo MRI of the prostate according to the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) guidelines to rule out local relapse. In case of a suspicious lesion, a biopsy should confirm local recurrence and patients should be referred for local salvage prostatectomy when distant metastases are ruled out. If MRI rules out local relapse, patients are eligible. 8. If ADT has been previously administered to the patient, a minimum of 12 months must have elapsed between the predicted duration of the last injection and inclusion of the patient in the study. For this category of patients, serum testosterone has to be higher than 8.5 nmol/l prior to inclusion. 9. Adequate normal organ and marrow function as defined below:

  • Serum bilirubin ≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). This will not apply to patients with confirmed Gilbert’s syndrome (persistent or recurrent hyperbilirubinemia that is predominantly unconjugated in the absence of hemolysishaemolysis or hepatic pathology), who will be allowed only in consultation with their physician.
  • AST (SGOT)/ALT (SGPT) ≤2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal unless liver metastases are present, in which case it must be ≤5x ULN
