Phase
Three: A phase three clinical trial follows a phase two, in a larger group of patients with specific cancer types. The aim of a phase three is to compare the new treatment to what is available for that cancer type.
Brief summary
A clinical trial to test if the treatment Pembrolizumab given with Olaparib is safe and better than the standard treatment given (Vandetanib or Enzalutamide) for patients with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.
Pembrolizumab is a type of treatment called immunotherapy, which works with your immune system to help stop cancer cells growing. Pembrolizumab has been effective in other cancer types and is now being tested to see if it is effective and safe in the treatment of prostate cancer when given with Olaparib. This combination will be compared against the standard treatment given for prostate can that has spread to other parts of the body and has rising PSA levels. Patients will be randomly selected to receive one of the following:
Arm 1: Pembrolizumab in combination with olaparib
Arm 2: Abiraterone acetate and prednisone/prednisolone (if you have been previously treated with enzalutamide) or enzalutamide (if you have been previously treated with abiraterone acetate).

Status
Open and recruiting
Phase
One: A phase one clinical trial tests new treatments sometimes for the first time in humans, usually in a small group of patients. The aim of a phase one is to test the safety of the new treatment and find the best dose to give patients.
Brief summary
A clinical trial to test the safety and effectiveness of the treatment Olaparib given together with a type of radiation therapy, 177Lu-PSMA-617, in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.
Olaparib is a type of treatment called PARP inhibitor, which works by stopping PARP proteins in the body that repair damaged cancer DNA. When given with radiation therapy, Olaparib works to stop the body repairing the radiation therapy damage to the cancer DNA. 177Lu-PSMA-617 is a type of precision radiation therapy that works by targeting a type of protein called PSMA (prostate specific membrane antigen) found on the surface of prostate cancer cells. If the prostate cancer has spread to other parts of the body, the PSMA will also be present in those areas. 177Lu-PSMA will use radiation to try to destroy all cancer cells that are expressing PSMA in various parts of your body.
It is believed that this new treatment combination may be able to kill more prostate cancer cells and control the cancer for longer periods.
Who can participate
Men who:
- Have had treatment for their cancer but it has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment given
- Have prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of their body
- Have prostate cancer that is able to be targeted by the 177Lu-PSMA
