Abstract

2 Background: The CA184-043 phase 3 study did not reach statistical significance for its primary endpoint of OS (HR=0.85, p=0.053). However, antitumor activity was observed in other efficacy endpoints, including progression-free survival. Prespecified subset analyses were performed to understand if any prognostic features may identify mCRPC patients (pts) more likely to benefit from Ipi treatment. Methods: 799 pts were randomized to receive a single dose of radiotherapy (RT) followed by either Ipi (N=399) or Pbo (N=400). Prespecified subset analyses based on Kaplan-Meier/Cox methodology were performed using known prognostic factors for OS in mCRPC. Results: Prespecified subset analyses suggested that Ipi may be more active in pts with favorable prognostic factors, including no visceral disease, alkaline phosphatase <1.5 ULN, and hemoglobin ≥11 g/dL (Table). The safety profile in this study was consistent with previous reports of Ipi. Conclusions: Based on these subset analyses, Ipi added to RT appears to have greater activity than RT alone in pts with a favorable prognostic profile. These results support continued investigation of Ipi in the ongoing CA184-095 study in chemotherapy-naive mCRPC pts. Clinical trial information: NCT00861614. [Table: see text]
