This study aims to establish if adding immunotherapy to the standard treatment of chemotherapy and prednisone can delay disease progression in people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).A Phase 2, Randomized, Open-Label, Study of Lorigerlimab With Docetaxel or Docetaxel Alone in Participants With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Clinical summary

Summary

Approximately 150 participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer will be randomally allocated into to one of two treatment arms.

Experimental Arm: Participants will receive immunotherapy (lorigerlimab) with standard treatment (docetaxel and oral prednisone). Lorigerlimab + docetaxel will be administered through IV injections in a clinic on Day 1 of a 3-week cycle. Lorigerlimab will be administered for up to 35 cycles. 

Comparator Arm: Participants will recieve standard care of chemotherapy (docetaxel) and prednisone. Docetaxel will be administered for up to 10 cycles until treatment discontinuation criteria are met. Prednisone will be administered orally twice a day.

Participants will undergo regular tests such as CT scans, MRI, and PSA blood tests to monitor disease progression.

Participants will also complete questionnaires about their health and wellbeing, with routine examinations and blood tests performed by the study doctor. 

If participants in the Comparator Arm experience disease progression whilst in the study they can choose to receive lorigerlimab without other treatment.

Conditions

This trial is treating people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer

  • Participants must have ≥ 1 metastatic (measurable or non-measurable per PCWG3) lesion.
  • Participant has prostate cancer progression at study entry based on PCWG3 criteria.
  • Participant shows evidence of disease progression after receiving at least 1 prior androgen receptor axis-targeted therapy (ARAT) regimen (e.g., abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, or darolutamide).
  • Patients with known history of documented breast cancer gene (BRCA) mutation (germline or somatic) must have received an approved poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor regimen.
