Ruxolitinib and Enzalutamide for the Treatment of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
- Registration Number
- NCT06616155
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center
- Brief Summary
This phase I/II tests the safety, side effects and best dose of ruxolitinib in combination with enzalutamide and how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer that remains despite blocking hormone production (castration-resistant) and that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic). Ruxolitinib, a kinase inh...

-
Ability to understand a written informed consent document, as determined by the study physician or designee
-
Surgical castration or continuous medical castration ≥ 8 weeks prior to screening; serum testosterone < 50 ng/dL
-
Have progressed on prior abiraterone treatment by Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 prostate specific antigen (PSA) criteria
- PSA must rise on two measurements at least 1 week apart in order to be eligible. Refer to PCWG3 for clarification.
- Most Recent absolute PSA must be > 2.0 ng/mL
-
Patient meets definition of poor responder to abiraterone by one of the following:
- Abiraterone started in hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) disease setting (abiraterone started within 4 months of starting continuous androgen deprivation therapy [ADT]): < 12 months duration on abiraterone
- Abiraterone started in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) disease setting: < 6 months duration on abiraterone due to progression or failure to achieve PSA50 response while on therapy
-
The patient's current or most recent treatment is ADT and abiraterone. Participants must sign consent within 30 days of discontinuing abiraterone or prior to stopping abiraterone
-
Patients must be willing to undergo metastatic tumor biopsy during screening. If no metastatic lesion is safely accessible to tumor biopsy, this requirement will not be required

-
Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 the upper limit of normal (ULN) OR direct bilirubin ≤ ULN for participants with total bilirubin levels > 1.5 x ULN. For subjects with known Gilbert's disease, bilirubin ≤ 3.0 mg/dL (obtained within 28 days prior to starting study therapy)
-
Creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 30 mL/min (obtained within 28 days prior to starting study therapy) For creatinine clearance estimation, the Cockcroft and Gault equation should be used
- History of untreated (with radiotherapy and/or surgery) brain metastasis is not allowed (stable and treated metastases are allowed)
- History of seizures or known hypersensitivity to enzalutamide, ruxolotinib or any of the excipients in the product
- Patients unable to swallow orally administered medication and patients with gastrointestinal disorders likely to interfere with the absorption of the study medications
- Uncontrolled hypertension as indicated by systolic blood pressure (SBP) > 170 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) > 105 mmHg on 2 consecutive measurements at screening visit unless known to have white coat hypertension syndrome
- Have received chemotherapy in the metastatic castration-resistant setting (docetaxel within the hormone sensitive setting is allowed)
- Failure to recover to grade 1 or lower toxicity related to prior systemic therapy (excluding alopecia and neuropathy) prior to study consent
- Current active infection with any of the following: hepatitis B, hepatitis C, active tuberculosis, latent tuberculosis. Patients with well controlled HIV are eligible however all drug interactions with HIV drug and study therapies have to be reviewed
- History of myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis within 6 months of study enrollment
- Study physician estimates life expectancy less than 6 months or patient is unable to swallow medications
- Patients currently taking fluconazole
- Currently receiving supplements containing androgens or medications known to be strong inhibitors of CYP2C8, strong inducers (except enzalutamide) or strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 and substrates of CYP3A4, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 with a narrow therapeutic window. If substitution is possible, strong inducers, inhibitors and substrates must be discontinued at least 7 days or 5 half-lives (which ever longer) prior to the first administration of enzalutamide
- Due to risk of tuberculosis (TB) reactivation, patients deemed at high risk by treating provider (e.g., close contact with someone with active TB, history of active/latent TB) should be excluded
- Those with underlying hepatic disease with a CHILD-PUGH class A, B or C impairment are excluded

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) Up to 28 days DLT will be defined based on the rate of drug-related grade 3-5 adverse events (AEs) experienced. AEs will be assessed using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. The proportion of patients at each dose level experiencing each grade level of toxicity will be described. To estimate the frequency an...
Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) Up to 28 days MTD will be defined based on the rate of drug-related grade 3-5 adverse events (AEs) experienced. MTD will be the highest dose level at which the probability of a subject experiencing a DLT during cycle 1 falls between 0.23 and 0.33.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Prostate specific antigen (PSA) reduction of 50% (PSA50) rate Up to 6 months PSA50 response will be defined by at least 50% decline in PSA level from baseline measured at least 3 weeks apart.
Objective response rate (ORR) Up to 6 months ORR will be defined as the proportion of subjects who experience radiographic response (complete response or partial response by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 criteria). Proportion of participants with ORR will be estimated along with corresponding 2-sided exact 95% Clopper-Pearson.
Incidence of AEs Up to 30 days after last dose of study treatment AEs will be assessed and graded according to CTCAE version 5.0. To estimate the frequency and severity of AEs associated with treatment, the proportion of subjects encountering toxicity at each dose level will be reported with exact 95% binomial confidence intervals.
Objective progression free survival (PFS) At start of treatment until clinical progression, death or radiographic progression, assessed up to 2 years PFS will be defined by Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 criteria. Median PFS will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and corresponding 95% confidence interval will be derived.
