Study Summary

This study is designed to test the hypothesis that using Sipuleucel-T (Provenge) in combination with new hormonal agents (NHA) (abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide) for the treatment of participants with asymptomatic metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and no visceral metastases would enhance the activation of antigen presenting cells (APC) by sipuleucel-T.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic metastatic prostate cancer, and the diagnosisof prostate cancer needs to be histologically confirmed by biopsy of the prostate ora metastatic lesion

  • On combined ADT with LHRH analog and a NHA (enzalutamide, apalutamide orabiraterone) for metastatic prostate cancer with PSA progression, but no imagingprogression based on the prostate cancer working group (PCWG) 3 criteria

  • Age 18 or above

  • ECOG performance status 0 or 1

  • Participants must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below:

  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥1,000/mcL

  • Platelets ≥100,000/mcL

  • Hemoglobin > 10 g/dl

  • AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) ≤3 × institutional ULN

  • Creatinine 1.5 ≤ institutional ULN

  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected participants on effectiveanti-retroviral therapy with undetectable viral load within 6 months are eligiblefor this trial.

  • For participants with evidence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the HBVviral load must be undetectable on suppressive therapy, if indicated

  • Participants with a history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection must have beentreated and cured. For participants with HCV infection who are currently ontreatment, they are eligible if they have an undetectable HCV viral load

  • Participants with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history ortreatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacyassessment of sipuleucel-T are eligible for this trial

  • No uncontrolled arrhythmia: patients with h/o myocardial infarction or history ofcongestive heart failure, need to have estimated left ventricle ejection fractionabove 40% either on echocardiogram or MUGA scan within 6 months of study enrollment

  • Non-sterilized men who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearingpotential must agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study enrollment,and for the duration of study participation

  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consentdocument

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior toentering the study

  • Prior treatment with sipuleucel-T

  • Participants who have not recovered from adverse events (AEs) due to prioranti-cancer therapy (i.e., have residual toxicities > Grade 2).

  • Participants who require > 50% dose reduction of NHA are excluded from the studyexcept for taking abiraterone at 250 mg with low fat food

  • Documented brain metastases or liver metastases

  • Treatment with any investigational compound within 30 days prior to the first doseof Sipuleucel-T

  • Documented brain metastases or liver metastases

  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or activeinfection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiacarrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliancewith study requirements

  • Known history of testing positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or knownacquired immunodeficiency syndrome. HIV-positive participants on combinationantiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for sipluleucel-T tobe less clinically active in this population

  • Inability to comply with protocol requirements
