Darolutamide in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)
Sponsor: Swiss Cancer Institute
Summary
Despite improvements in treatment, metastatic prostate cancer remains incurable, especially in the case of pretreated metastatic castration-resistant disease (mCRPC), where treatment options are limited, leading to an unmet need. The paradigm shift in the treatment of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) has affected the treatment landscape for mCRPC patients. Many have already received androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPI), making first-line mCRPC treatment challenging. The Swiss Group for Clinical Cancer Research (SAKK) has shown in previous studies that maintenance treatment with an ARPI, such as darolutamide, can improve radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) in pretreated mCRPC patients. In the SAKK 08/16 trial, darolutamide maintenance was found to prolong PFS compared to placebo, especially in patients who responded well to prior ARPI treatment. Based on these findings, the hypothesis is that continued AR-pathway blockade with darolutamide, initiated in patients progressing from mHSPC to mCRPC on ARPI treatment, can improve outcomes when added to standard first-line mCRPC therapy and continued as maintenance. The proposed study aims to evaluate the efficacy of darolutamide, combined with physician-choice standard of care (including taxane chemotherapy, olaparib, radium 223, or LuPSMA), followed by maintenance therapy, on rPFS for patients in the first-line setting of mCRPC.
