Abstract

ABSTRACT Aim: Ra is an approved a-emitter that prolongs survival in pts with CRPC and symptomatic bone mets (Parker et al. NEJM. 2013). D is an approved chemotherapy for CRPC. We conducted a phase 1/2a study of Ra + D in CRPC pts with bone mets to establish safety and a recommended dose of the combination. We previously reported dose escalation data and recommended dose (ASCO 2013). Here we report preliminary data on an expansion cohort studying safety of Ra + D vs D alone. Methods: Eligible pts had progressing CRPC with ≥ 2 bone mets and were candidates for D treatment (tx). Pts were randomized 2:1 to the recommended dose (5 × Ra 50 kBq/kg q 6 wk + 10 × D 60 mg/m2 q 3 wk) vs D alone (75 mg/m2 q 3 wk with step-down option to 60 mg/m2). Adverse events were assessed during tx. Long-term safety data were collected q 3 mo for up to 1 year after start of study tx. Accrual is complete. Results: 46 pts are enrolled (dosed) in the expanded safety cohort. Baseline characteristics in the 2 tx arms are presented below (Table); 33 pts had Ra + D, and 13 had D alone. As of May 2014, 13 (Ra + D) vs 4 (D) pts had all planned study tx doses. To date, febrile neutropenia occurred in 2 pts (both had D alone). There were 1 case of grade 3/4 anemia (Ra + D), 2 cases of grade 1 anemia (both D alone), and no thrombocytopenia. Preliminary data for neutrophils and platelets (Table) indicate a nadir ∼ 1 week after injection, with values similar in the 2 tx arms. 3 of 4 pts receiving D had confirmed dose reductions. A safety review in Nov 2013 raised no concern; recommended Ra + D dose was continued.

More pts completed Ra + D tx vs D alone. Expanded safety cohort continues as planned. Disclosure: M.J.
