The proportion of patients who have an improvement in cognition/ fatigue symptoms

Study Overview

Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this trial is to determine whether dose reduction of enzalutamide in patients with grade 3 fatigue and/or cognition change will lead to an improvement in symptoms while maintaining active drug levels.

Patients within 3 months of starting enzalutamide will be assessed by their oncologist as being potentially eligible for dose reduction due to the onset of moderate to severe fatigue and/or cognition change, which is assessed as being due to enzalutamide

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients with prostate cancer who have commenced enzalutamide within 3 months
  • Patient must have concomitant LHRH agonist or antagonist (no single agent enzalutamide)
  • Receiving enzalutamide before or after docetaxel
  • Patients may have hormone-sensitive or castrate resistant disease
  • Patients may have metastatic (M1) or non-metastatic (M0) disease
  • Onset of grade 3 or more cognition change and/or fatigue after commencement of enzalutamide considered to be due to enzalutamide

Exclusion Criteria

  • Clinical dementia
  • Concomitant use of drugs known to impair cognition such as benzodiazepines or antihistamines.
  • Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 and/ or CYP2C8 inducers or inhibitors.
  • Patient expected to have a change in opioid dose during the study period or have had a change 4 weeks before study entry.
  • Diagnosed with sleep apnoea
  • Brain metastases, prior seizures, drugs that significantly reduce seizure threshold.
  • Active infection or other intercurrent illness that may contribute to fatigue or cognition change within 4 weeks of study entry.

Arms & Interventions

Enzalutamide

Experimental

Patients will have commenced standard dose enzalutamide (160mg) daily and dose will be reduced if Grade 3 fatigue or cognition change has occurred and if toxicity is attributed to enzalutamide

Intervention: Enzalutamide (Drug)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The proportion of patients who have an improvement in cognition/ fatigue symptoms

Time Frame: 1 year post enrolment

The primary endpoint is an improvement in the fatigue and cognition symptoms. Improvement will be de ned as the patient answering 'Better' in the cognition/ fatigue question at the lowest dose of enzalutamide.

Secondary Outcomes

No secondary outcomes reported
