Key Takeaways
PSADT can risk stratify patients with nonmetastatic CRPC
The androgen receptor remains the most important driver in the continuum
of CRPC
Prostate cancer therapy is a marathon
Make sure we get the most mileage out of each treatment
More than one right sequencing strategy
Look for trial opportunities EARLY
Genomics are increasingly important for individualizing therapy
Sequencing of therapies is an active area of interest

  1. Other than skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men. The American Cancer Society estimates the following for prostate cancer in the United States for 2019: About 174,650 new cases of prostate cancer About 31,620 deaths from prostate cancer 1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death among men behind lung cancer
  2. Possible pathway for prostate cancer, from diagnosis to progression to biochemical recurrence.
  3. Men who develop castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) need to have all 3 of the following: Rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) On androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) Castrate levels of testosterone
  4. Based on a retrospective analysis, the median time to progression on ADT was 23.7 months for the overall cohort of 553 patients (49% metastatic and 51% nonmetastatic).
  5. Guidelines for imaging exist per the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), American Urological Association (AUA), and Radiographic Assessments for Detection of Advanced Recurrence (RADAR). No consensus exists regarding how often and when to image. Clinical trials to date have used conventional scans, including computed tomography (CT) and bone scan. Early studies suggest that prostate cancer-specific tracers used for positron emission tomography (PET), such as fluciclovine F18 and choline, may be better than fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) for use in recurrent prostate cancer. PET fluciclovine F18 is the only one approved by the FDA. The indication is for men with suspected prostate cancer recurrence based on elevated PSA levels after treatment. The RADAR group recommends next-generation imaging techniques for select patients in whom disease progression is suspected based on laboratory markers. Others disagree with this view and generally would reserve the use of PET fluciclovine F18 for men with a PSA >2. Sensitivity is limited in men with PSA <1. Newer scans, including fluciclovine F18 PET and choline PET, are available.
  6. Read case study: Note rising PSA in setting of suppressed testosterone on luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) = CRPC Negative scans Prostate-specific antigen doubling time (PSADT) is 6 months
  7. The best answer is C.
  8. “There has been a growing interest in the development of drugs that target the AR [androgen receptor] in nmCRPC [nonmetastatic CRPC]; hence second-generation anti-androgens were developed. Second-generation anti-androgens have several advantages over the first-generation ones. First, they have a higher affinity for the AR. Second, they do not have agonistic properties. Third, they inhibit the function of the AR by 3 mechanisms: prevention of binding of androgens to the AR, prevention of the translocation of AR to the nucleus, and prevention of binding of the AR to DNA [deoxyribonucleic acid]” (El Amm & Aragon-Ching, 2019)
  9. Pelvic lymph nodes (LN) were allowed. “SPARTAN was a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled multicenter phase III trial, with 1,207 patients at high risk of developing metastasis in nmCRPC. Patients
 were randomized in a 2:1 fashion to either placebo with ADT or 240 mg/day apalutamide with ADT. A prostate-specific antigen doubling time (PSADT) of 10 months despite castrate levels of testosterone was defined as high risk of developing metastasis. The trial utilized conventional imaging scans to detect metastases with computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, abdomen, and head as well as technetium scintigraphy bone scans at the time of study inclusion, and routine restaging scans every 16 weeks
 The primary end point of the trial was MFS [metastasis-free survival], which was achieved, with the apalutamide arm showing 40.5 months compared with 16.2 months for placebo” (El-Amm & Aragon-Ching, 2019).
  10. “However, several adverse events (AEs) of interest are noteworthy, including a higher incidence of rash that occurred in 23.8% of those who received apalutamide compared with only 5.5% in the placebo arm; hypothyroidism was found in 8.1% vs 2% in the placebo arm, as well as fracture occurring in 11.7% vs 6.5%. Study-wide, two cases of seizure were noted to occur. Regardless, given the primary efficacy trial results, apalutamide received FDA approval in the management of nmCRPC. There was no increase in the risk of serious AEs (24.8% vs 23.1%), but a higher risk of death (10 vs 1 patient) was observed in the study. These deaths occurred within 28 days of the last dose, and of the 10 patients in the apalutamide arm, prostate cancer was the attributable cause of death in 2 patients. However, non–cancer-related deaths occurred in others, such as sepsis (n=2), pneumonia (n=1), multiple organ dysfunction (n=1), and cardiovascular causes, such as myocardial infarction (n=2), cardiorespiratory arrest (n=1), and cerebral hemorrhage (n=1), while only 1 patient in the placebo arm had cardiorespiratory arrest as the cause of death. While considered an overall small number in terms of difference in death rates (1.2% vs 0.3% death in the apalutamide vs placebo arms, respectively), gains in benefit must be weighed against potential harms” (El-Amm & Aragon-Ching, 2019).

  12. Multinational, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled phase 3 trial Primary end point was MFS Patients randomized to enzalutamide had a 71% reduction in the risk of metastases or death compared to placebo Median MFS was 36.6 months with enzalutamide versus 14.7 months on placebo (XtandiÂź prescribing information, 2018)
  13. In PROSPER, grade >3 adverse reactions were reported in 31% of enzalutamide patients and 23% of placebo patients Hypertension was reported in 12% of patients receiving enzalutamide and 5% of patients receiving placebo The median duration of treatment was 18.4 months on enzalutamide versus 11.1 months on placebo (XtandiÂź prescribing information, 2018)

  15. Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial involving men with m0CRPC and PSADT ≀10 months. Patients were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive darolutamide 600 mg twice daily or placebo while continuing ADT. The primary end point was MFS. Results: MFS was significantly longer with darolutamide than with placebo (40.4 vs 18.4 months).
  16. Advanced genomic testing is designed to help identify the DNA alterations that may be driving the growth of a specific tumor. Information about genomic mutations that are unique to your individual cancer may help doctors identify treatments designed to target those mutations. The traditional approach to cancer care defined the disease and its treatment by its location—cancer in the breast is breast cancer; cancer in the lung is lung cancer. Cancer treatment has typically followed a similarly generalized line of attack. In recent years, researchers and physicians have found that a cancer in one patient may not behave the same way in another patient. Some cancers even bear similarities to cancers that were once thought to be completely different. A breast tumor, for example, may look and act like a lung tumor. By looking at the tumor’s profile with genomic testing, physicians may be able to recommend a drug or protocol not previously considered. Who benefits? Precision cancer care is an evolving science, and advanced genomic testing is not appropriate for every patient. Even when the test is recommended, it may not produce results that lead directly to a treatment plan. The analyses may help doctors consider more precise therapies in many cases, but not all mutations can be matched with known treatment options. Doctors may recommend the tests to patients whose cancer did not adequately respond to a treatment plan prescribed for their tumor, whether it was a particular chemotherapy regimen, radiation and/or surgery. The tests may also be appropriate for patients with certain rare cancers or other unusual circumstances, to offer further options or clarity in the search for a more targeted treatment plan. Whether genomic testing is right for you is a decision you make with your medical team based on your individual situation. How it works If you and your oncologist decide you are a candidate for genomic testing, here’s how the process would work: A biopsy will be taken of your tumor. Cancer cells will be isolated and extracted from the biopsy, then their DNA will be sequenced in the lab. Highly sophisticated equipment will be used to scan the sequenced genetic profile for abnormalities that dictate how the tumor functions. The abnormalities will be analyzed in a lab to determine whether they match known mutations that may have responded to therapies or where evidence suggests there may be a potential treatment option not previously considered. If there’s a match, your oncologist may be able to use the results to suggest treatments that have been used in the past to target the same mutations. Your oncologist will explain the results to you and any indications for new treatment options, and together you will formulate a treatment plan targeted to your individual situation. If you or your caregivers have additional questions, we will offer resources and educational guidance on this emerging field of medicine. The promise of advanced genomic testing The roots of advance genomic testing can be traced to the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003. Researchers mapped the entire human genetic code, discovering that every human cell is packed with an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 genes. This marked a dramatic shift in the understanding of cancer and other diseases. Researchers have used the discoveries to link dozens of diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease and inherited colon cancer, to specific genes. In recent years, researchers have taken the advancements one step further, with genomic tests of the cancer itself. These even more targeted assessments study the DNA profile of the patient’s tumor, searching for genetic abnormalities that can be matched to drug therapies that may not have otherwise been considered. This shift in thought and approach is toward truly precision cancer care. Instead of one-size-fits-all medicine, which can lead to unnecessary and even harmful treatments for some patients, advanced genomic testing devotes its attention to studying a single individual—the patient whose tumor is being tested. DFCI Pt handout. Most errors, or mutations in the DNA found in cancer cells, happen over a lifetime and are present only in the cancer. These mutations were not inherited, and cannot be passed along to children. Genomic testing is most typically done using a blood sample that looks for inherited genetic changes as well. Inherited genomic testing looks at the make-up of genes a person is born with that can affect cancer risk. If an inherited gene mutation is found, then other members of a family could have it, too. Knowing about inherited gene mutations can help the relatives of a cancer patient, since those who share this mutation will benefit from special screening and follow-up care. A Dana-Farber researcher extracts DNA from blood samples. Genomic testing, whether on cancer cells or through a blood sample, can sometimes allow doctors to recommend certain treatments and chemotherapies that target the specific type of cancer. This targeting can also prevent normal cells from being harmed by therapy and reduce side effects. If you are a cancer patient, it is recommended that you to talk to your oncologist to determine your candidacy for genomic or other types of genetic testing. If an inherited mutation is found, then a healthcare professional called a  genetic counselor can help you and your family members understand the implications of the finding, and can help arrange further testing in a family so those who have inherited genetic risk can have access to proactive screening and risk reducing measures.

  17. In patients with CRPC and bone metastasis, a randomized, placebo-controlled trial in 2002 showed that zoledronic acid significantly reduced skeletal-related events compared to placebo and increased the median time to first skeletal-related event (Saad et al, 2004). Denosumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody which binds to RANK ligand. It has also been shown to significantly delay the first skeletal-related event (Fizazi et al, 2011).
  18. Systemic options for mCRPC.
  19. In general, these therapeutic approaches have not been compared with each other in large randomized trials. The proper sequencing of these approaches requires consideration of multiple factors. The sites and extent of metastatic disease along with the rate of progression are important in treatment selection. Other factors include the route and frequency of administration, side effects, regulatory status, cost, insurance reimbursement, and patient preferences.
  20. mCRPC after docetaxel: “Options for metastatic (M1) disease if docetaxel fails: these options are based on whether the cancer is or isn’t in the internal organs. Some options in the two groups overlap. However, the order of options differs based what’s best for that group. There is no strong agreement on what is the next best treatment. Abiraterone acetate with prednisone or methylprednisolone or enzalutamide has been shown to slightly prolong life when used after docetaxel. Similar results were found with cabazitaxel plus a steroid (prednisone or dexamethasone). However, cabazitaxel can cause severe side effects, so close monitoring is needed. Patients shouldn’t use cabazitaxel if they have liver problems. Radium-223 is an option for men whose metastases are only in the bones. Pembrolizumab may be an option for microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) tumors. Sipuleucel-T may also be used for CRPC that hasn’t spread to internal organs [if it] has not been taken before” (NCCN, 2018).
  21. Read case.
  22. Speaker to read the question and answers. Information-generating question to see what is clinical practice.
  23. Sipuleucel-T is a dendritic cell vaccine that is prepared from peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained by leukapheresis. These cells are exposed ex vivo to a novel recombinant protein immunogen that consists of prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) fused to human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Activated cells are infused back into the patient approximately 3 days after the original harvesting. In randomized clinical trials in men with minimally symptomatic m1CRPC, sipuleucel-T prolonged prolonged overall survival compared to placebo.
  24. All men with mCRPC should undergo next-generation sequencing. The presence of these mutations may influence the aggressiveness of the disease and treatment options.
  25. Radium-223 is an alpha particle-emitting radiopharmaceutical. Radium is a bone-seeking element, and radium-223’s radioactive decay allows for the deposition of high-energy radiation over a much shorter distance compared to other isotopes, thus minimizing toxicity to normal bone marrow (Parker et al, 2013).
  26. Radium-223 prolongs survival and reduces symptomatic skeletal-related events. 60% of patients achieve pain palliation after the first dose (another 10% later, after dose #4 or #5).
  27. Read patient case. He has received multiple lines of treatment for his prostate cancer.
  28. He now has soft tissue and bone lesions. He does carry the BRCA1 mutation, so potentially a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor could be considered. He also has a dMMR, so pembrolizumab could be an option.
  29. Systemic options for m1CRPC.
  30. “In patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), overall survival (OS) is significantly improved with cabazitaxel versus mitoxantrone after prior docetaxel treatment
 Median PFS [progression-free survival] was 4.4 months with C20 [cabazitaxel 20 mg/m2], 5.1 months with C25 [cabazitaxel 25 mg/m2], and 5.3 months with D75 [docetaxel 75 mg/m2], with no significant differences between treatment arms
 Conclusion: C20 and C25 did not demonstrate superiority for OS versus D75 in patients with chemotherapy-naive mCRPC. Tumor response was numerically higher with C25 versus D75; pain PFS was numerically improved with D75 versus C25. Cabazitaxel and docetaxel demonstrated different toxicity profiles, with overall less toxicity with C20” (Oudard et al, 2017).

Go to: Abstract Bispecific T cell engagers are a new class of immunotherapeutic molecules intended for the treatment of cancer. These molecules, termed BiTEs, enhance the patient’s immune response to tumors by retargeting T cells to tumor cells. BiTEs are constructed of two single chain variable fragments (scFv) connected in tandem by a flexible linker. One scFv binds to a T cell-specific molecule, usually CD3, while the second scFv binds to a tumor-associated antigen. This structure and specificity allows a BiTE to physically link a T cell to a tumor cell, ultimately stimulating T cell activation, tumor killing and cytokine production. BiTEs have been developed that target several tumor-associated antigens for a variety of both hematological and solid tumors. Several BiTEs are currently in clinical trials for their therapeutic efficacy and safety. This review examines the salient structural and functional features of BiTEs as well as the current state of their clinical and preclinical development.
