- Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the use of hyperpolarized 13C MRI (HP 13C MRI) and the HP-derived 13C pyruvate-to-lactate conversion rate constant (kPL) as an early response biomarker in men with treatment-naïve, high-risk, localized or locally advanced prostate cancer receiving neoadjuvant therapy.
- Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To investigate on-treatment changes in HP 13C MRI derived kPL as an early response biomarker in men with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer receiving neoadjuvant abiraterone/prednisone prior to radical prostatectomy (RP).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the pathologic complete response/minimal residual disease rate at the time of radical prostatectomy following 12 weeks of neoadjuvant abiraterone/prednisone in patients with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer.
II. To determine the safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant abiraterone/prednisone in patients with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer planning to undergo radical prostatectomy (RP).
III. To assess time to biochemical recurrence following radical prostatectomy after 12 weeks of neoadjuvant abiraterone/prednisone IV. To assess prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response to neoadjuvant abiraterone/prednisone prior to RP.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the diagnostic performances of PSMA PET, multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) and hyperpolarized 13C MRI (HP13C MRI) for pathological response at the time of RP II. To investigate the association between early changes in intratumoral metabolism (HP 13C derived pyruvate-to-lactate conversion rate kPL) on neoadjuvant abiraterone with PSA nadir. III. To evaluate associations between baseline genomic and transcriptional features, changes in intratumoral kPL, and pathologic response at the time of radical prostatectomy.
OUTLINE:
Participants will receive 12 weeks of neoadjuvant abiraterone/prednisone. After completion of neoadjuvant therapy, participants will proceed to radical prostatectomy. Participants will be followed for up to 5 years every 3 months for the first year following RP, then every 6 months until death, biochemical recurrence or initiation of additional prostate cancer directed therapy.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mean changes in intratumoral pyruvate-to-lactate conversion rate constant (kPL) Up to 4 weeks Mean changes in intratumoral kPL from baseline to 4 weeks will be reported. For participants with \>1 intraprostatic lesions detected on baseline scan, change in kPL will be calculated on using the lesion with the highest initial kPL.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Pathological response rate Up to 3 months Pathological response rate is defined as the rate of combined pathological complete response (pCR) or minimal residual disease (MRD) at radical prostatectomy (RP). The point estimate and 95% confidence intervals will be reported. A pCR is defined as the absence of tumor on the gross specimen o MRD is defined as residual tumors with cross-sectional diameter of \<=0.5cm.
Mean PSA nadir Up to 4 months The mean PSA nadir for participants while on neoadjuvant therapy will be reported.
Proportion of participants with treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) Up to 3 months Adverse events will be graded using the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5 criteria. Proportion of participants reporting treatment-related adverse events will be reported.
Proportion of participants completing non-interventional radical prostatectomy (RP) Up to 8 weeks following completion of neoadjuvant treatment. Proportion of patients successfully undergoing planned, non-interventional RP following neoadjuvant therapy will be reported.
Proportion of participants with a >=50% decline in PSA level from baseline (PSA50) response Up to 4 months Proportion of patients with a PSA50 response defined as a \>=50% decline in PSA level from baseline during neoadjuvant treatment will be reported.
Proportion of participants with a >=90% decline in PSA level from baseline (PSA90) response Up to 4 months Proportion of patients with a PSA90 response defined as a \>=90% decline in PSA level from baseline during neoadjuvant treatment will be reported.
Median Time to Biochemical Recurrence Up to 5 years The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate the median time to biochemical recurrence (along with 95% confidence intervals). Biochemical recurrence will be defined as a serum PSA \>=0.2 ng/mL confirmed on two separate occasions (with time of biochemical recurrence defined as the date of the first serum PSA \>=0.2 ng/mL). Participants deceased or initiated on a prostate cancer (PC)-directed therapy prior to biochemical recurrence will be censored at the time of death or initiation of PC-directed therapy. Similarly, participants removed from the trial prior to biochemical recurrence will be censored at the time of study removal.
