E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the activity of olaparib in patients with advanced prostate cancer who have progressed following one or two chemotherapy regimens including docetaxel. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are to evaluate:
• Radiological progression-free survival (rPFS)
• Time to radiological progression
• Progression free survival (PFS)
• Overall survival
• Time to PSA progression
• Duration of PSA response (decline of ≥50%)
•Percentage of change in PSA from baseline to 12 weeks (or earlier if discontinued therapy) and maximum PSA decline while on treatment.
• The utility of CTCs as an early indication of benefit from PARP inhibitor therapy
• Further characterise the safety profile of olaparib in advanced CRPC patients
•TOPARP-B only - drug exposure (pharmacokinetics) with the two dose levels of 300mg or 400mg of the tablet formulation and correlation of drug exposure with safety events and antitumour activity.
•TOPARP-B only – evaluation of the two dose levels and recommendation of dose to investigate further. |

E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1.Capable of understanding and complying with the protocol requirements and has signed the informed consent document
2.Age ≥ 18 years
3.Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate with archival tumour tissue available for molecular analyses. If the patient does not have a prior histological diagnosis then the planned baseline fresh biopsy may be used for both the purpose of confirming the histological diagnosis prior to trial entry and for subsequent biomarker analyses
4.At least one but no more than two previous taxane-based chemotherapy regimens. If docetaxel chemotherapy is used more than once, this will be considered as one regime. Patients may have had prior exposure to cabazitaxel treatment
5.At least 28 days since the completion of prior therapy, including major surgery, chemotherapy and other investigational agents. Additionally, clinically relevant sequelae should have resolved to grade 1 or less prior to recommencing treatment. For hormonal treatment and radiotherapy refer to the guidelines below:
•At least 28 days since the completion of prior flutamide treatment. Patients whose PSA did not decline in response to antiandrogens given as a second line or later intervention will only require a 14 days washout prior to Cycle 1, Day 1
•At least 42 days since the completion of prior bicalutamide (Casodex) and nilutimide (Nilandron) treatment. Patients whose PSA did not decline for 3 or 4 months in response to antiandrogens given as second line or later intervention will require only a 14 day washout period prior to Cycle 1 Day1
•At least 14 days from any radiotherapy with the exception of a single fraction of radiotherapy for the purposes of palliation (confined to one field) is permitted
6.Documented prostate cancer progression as assessed by the investigator with one of the following:
•PSA progression defined by a minimum of three rising PSA levels with an interval of ≥ 1 week between each determination. The PSA value at the Screening visit should be ≥ 2 µg/L (2 ng/ml); patients on systemic glucorticoids for control of symptoms must have documented PSA progression by PCWG22 while on systemic glucocorticoids prior to commencing Cycle1 Day1 of treatment
•Radiographic progression of soft tissue disease by modified RECIST criteria or of bone metastasis with two or more documented new bone lesions on a bone scan with or without PSA progression
7.Surgically or medically castrated, with testosterone levels of < 50 ng/dL (< 2.0 nM). If the patient is being treated with LHRH agonists (patient who have not undergone orchiectomy), this therapy must have been initiated at least 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 and must be continued throughout the study
8.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of ≤ 2 (Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 50%)
9.Life expectancy > 12 weeks
10.Patient must be able to swallow a whole tablet
11.Patient and the patient’s partner of childbearing potential, must agree to use medically accepted methods of contraception during the course of the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study drug
12.Agreeable to have all the biomarker studies including the paired fresh tumour biopsies
13.Subjects must have a CTC count of ≥5 cells/7.5mls blood at screening confirmed by the central laboratory. For part B of the study, the minimum CTC count at screening is not mandatory if the patient has measurable disease according to modified RECIST1.1 >2 cms in size at screening and screening PSA ≥ 2 μg/L (2 ng/ml)
14.Subjects must have adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal function documented within 7 days of registration, defined as:
•Haemoglobin ≥10g/dL independent of transfusions for 14 days if related to anaemia due to advanced prostate cancer. If not, subjects should be independant of tranfusions for 28 days
•White blood cells >3x109/L
•Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5x109/L
•Platelets ≥100 x109/L
•Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) except for patients with known Gilbert’s syndrome
•Aspartate transaminase (AST) (SGOT) and alanine transaminase (ALT) (SGPT) ≤2.5 x ULN or ≤5 x ULN in the presence of liver metastases
•Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN or a calculated creatinine clearance >40mL/min for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal. For GFR estimation, the Cockcroft and Gault equation should be used:
GFR=CrCl(ml/min)=(140 - age)×wt(kg)/(serum creatinine × 72)
•Albumin >25 g/l
15. For Part B only - Subjects must have genomic defects associated with olaparib sensitivity as identified by next generation sequencing (anticipated to be approximately 30% of patients) confirmed by the central laboratory or, if there is a next generation sequencing result report from an external laboratory, the patient could be enrolled prior to confirmation of these results by the central laboratory following approval by the Chief Investigator (in such cases the tumour sample will still be tested at the central laboratory) |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1.Surgery, or local prostatic intervention (excluding a prostatic biopsy) less than 28 days of Cycle 1 Day 1.
2.Less than 28 days from any active anticancer therapy or investigational agents. For hormonal treatment and radiotherapy refer to the guidelines outlined in the inclusion criteria.
3.Prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor, platinum, cyclophosphamide or mitoxantrone chemotherapy.
4.Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV heart disease), unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, uncontrolled hypertension or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
