E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Be willing and able to provide documented informed consent/assent for the trial. 2. Be ≥18 years of age on day of providing documented informed consent. 3. Histology: a. For Cohorts A, B, C, D, E, G, J: Have histol.- or cytol.- confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell histology. Diagnosis must be stated in a pathology report and confirmed by the investigator. b. For Cohorts F, H, I: Have t-NE or de novo metastatic prostate cancer defined by ≥1% neuroendocrine cells that are located in discrete regions of a recent biopsy specimen. Neuroendocrine histology must be confirmed by central histology review prior to enrollment. Participants with t-NE must have prior histologic evidence of adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland by investigator report. 4. For all Cohorts: Have provided tumor tissue from a site not previously irradiated. Adequacy of these for biomarker analysis will be evaluated by a central laboratory prior to enrollment. Cohorts A, E, & G & J: A core or excisional biopsy from soft tissue or a bone biopsy is required. A biopsy from soft tissue is preferred. In lieu of a soft tissue biopsy, a bone biopsy is permitted. Biopsies must have been performed within 1 year of screening and after developing mCRPC to be eligible for the study. Biopsies can be newly obtained biopsies or archival specimens. Cohort B: An archival tumor tissue sample or tumor tissue from a fresh core or excisional biopsy from soft tissue is required. Cohorts C & D: Participants with soft tissue disease must provide a core or excisional biopsy from a soft tissue lesion if clinically accessible. In addition to the biopsy an archival specimen should also be provided if one is available. The biopsy must be performed within 1 year of screening and after developing mCRPC. If soft tissue disease cannot be biopsied then an archival specimen is required. For participants with bone metastasis only, an archival tumor tissue specimen must be provided. Cohorts F, H, & I: A core or excisional biopsy from soft tissue or a biopsy is required. A biopsy from soft tissue is preferred. In lieu of a soft tissue biopsy, a bone biopsy is permitted. Biopsies must have been performed within 1 year of screening and after developing mCRPC and demonstrate neuroendocrine histology as defined above under "histology" to be eligible for the study. 5.Have prostate cancer progression within 6 months prior to screening, as determined by the investigator, by means of one of the following: a. PSA progression using local laboratory values as defined by a minimum of 2 rising PSA levels with an interval of ≥1 week between each assessment where the PSA value at screening should be ≥2 ng/mL b. Radiographic disease progression in soft tissue based on RECIST 1.1 criteria with or without PSA progression. c. Radiographic disease progression in bone defined as the appearance of 2 or more new bone lesions on bone scan with or without PSA progression. 6. Have progression under the following conditions if the participants received anti-androgen therapy prior to enrollment: a. Evidence of progression >4 weeks since last flutamide treatment. b. Evidence of progression >6 weeks since last bicalutamide or nilutamide treatment. 7. Have ongoing androgen deprivation with serum testosterone <50 ng/dL (< 1.7 nM). If the participant is currently being treated with luteinizing hormone releasing hormone agonists or antagonists this therapy must have been initiated at least 4 weeks prior to first dose of trial treatment and treatment must be continued throughout the study for all cohorts. 8. Participants receiving bone resorptive therapy must have been on stable doses for ≥4 weeks prior to first dose of trial treatment. 9. Participants are eligible to participate if they agree to contraception as described below during the intervention period starting with the first dose of study therapy. The length of time required to continue contraception after the last dose of study intervention for each study intervention is as follows: - Olaparib 95 days - Docetaxel 95 days - Enzalutamide 30 days - Abiraterone acetate 7 days - Lenvatinib 7 days - Carboplatin/etoposide 95 days - Belzutifan 7 days Refrain from donating sperm. PLUS either: - Be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle and agree to remain abstinent. OR - Must agree to use contraception unless confirmed to be azoospermic, as detailed below: - Agree to use a male condom plus partner use of an additional contraceptive method when having penile-vaginal intercourse with a WOCBP who is not currently pregnant. -Contraceptive use by men should be consistent with local regulations. 10. Demonstrate adequate organ function; all screening labs should be performed within 10 days of the first dose of trial treatment. Cohort Specific inclusion Criteria are to be found in the protocol |
