Summary
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Researchers have designed a study medicine called ifinatamab deruxtecan (also called I-DXd or MK-2400) to treat mCRPC, which is a type of medicine called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs work by targeting a protein found on cancer cells and delivering treatment directly into the cell to damange it.
The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive I-DXd live longer overall and live longer without the cancer growing or spreading than people who receive chemotherapy.
Eligible participants will be randomly allocated to one of two treatment arms.
In the Experimental Arm, participants will receive I-DXd as an intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks.
In the Active Comparator Arm, participants will receive docetaxel chemotherapy as an IV infusion every 3 weeks, and a corticosteroid called prednisone as an oral tablet once per day.
