MEDI-522 in the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic Androgen-Independent Prostate Cancer

Not Recruiting

Trial ID: NCT00072930

Purpose

The primary objectives of this study are: 1. To explore the antitumor activity of MEDI-522 in combination with docetaxel, prednisone, and zoledronic acid in patients with metastatic Androgen-Independent Prostate Cancer (AIPC); and 2. To summarize the safety of MEDI-522 in combination with docetaxel, prednisone, and zoledronic acid in this patient population.

Official Title

Phase II, Randomized, Open-Label, Two-Arm, Multicenter Study of MEDI-522, a HuMA Directed Against the Human Alpha V Beta 3 Integrin, in Combination With Docetaxel, Prednisone, and Zoledronic Acid in the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic Androgen-Independent Prostate Cancer

Eligibility


Inclusion Criteria:

   - Adult men at least 18 years of age at the time of randomization.

   - Metastatic, histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate
   that has progressed after start of androgen deprivation therapy, which includes prior
   orchiectomy or medical castration using leuteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)
   antagonists such as leuprolide or goserelin (patients must remain on LHRH analogue
   therapy for the duration of the study if not surgically castrated). Progressive
   disease should be documented by:

   a. PSA progression (defined as two consecutive increases in PSA over a previous
   reference value, with the first increase in PSA occurring at a minimum of 1 week after
   the reference value [obtained within 2 months prior to study randomization] and
   confirmed by a subsequent increase in PSA whose value must be ³ 5 ng/mL prior to study
   randomization);41 and one of the following: i. Bone metastases (defined as ³3 foci on
   bone scan and confirmed radiologically within 1 month prior to study randomization);
   or ii. Measurable non-bony metastatic disease (documented by radiographic studies
   performed within 1 month prior to study randomization).

   - Serum testosterone levels <50 ng/dL documented in non-surgically castrated patients
   within 21 days prior to randomization.

   - Prior treatment with nonsteroidal antiandrogens (e.g., flutamide or bicalutamide) is
   allowed provided:

   - There is evidence of disease progression (defined in Inclusion Criteria #2) following
   withdrawal of antiandrogens; and b. At least 4 weeks for flutamide or 6 weeks for
   bicalutamide have passed since last treatment.

   - Prior treatment with ketoconazole and/or steroids is allowed provided at least 4 weeks
   have passed since last treatment. There are no restrictions for use of prednisone (5
   mg twice daily) or another functionally equivalent oral corticosteroid for treatment
   of pain.

   - In the rare instance a patient is potent, he must agree to practice an effective
   method of contraception including condom or abstinence, unless his sexual partner is
   sterile, from the time of first administration of MEDI-522 or docetaxel through 30
   days after the last dose of either docetaxel or MEDI-522, whichever is the last drug
   discontinued.

   - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2 documented
   within 21 days prior to randomization.

   - Life expectancy, in the opinion of the investigator, of at least 6 months.

   - White blood cell (WBC) count ≥ 3,000/mm3; absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3;
   platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3; and hemoglobin ³ 9 g/dL documented within 21 days prior
   to randomization.

   - Bilirubin ≤ ULN; aspartate transaminase (AST)/alanine transaminase (ALT) £1.5 times
   ULN or if AST/ALT is >1.5 times ULN, then alkaline phosphatase must be £2.5 times ULN;
   serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL; INR within normal range, unless a patient is receiving
   anticoagulation therapy; and corrected serum calcium between 8.0-11.5 mg/dL documented
   within 21 days prior to randomization.

   - Patients who had prior major surgery are eligible if at least 4 weeks have passed
   since their surgery and all surgical wounds have healed prior to study randomization.

   - Prior radiotherapy including therapeutic isotopes is allowed provided measurable or
   evaluable disease that is clearly progressing is present and all acute
   radiation-related toxicities have resolved prior to study randomization.

   - Prior treatment with unconventional therapy for malignancy (e.g., vitamins, St. John's
   Wort, PC-SPES, saw palmetto, or other herbal remedies) is allowed provided at least 4
   weeks have passed since last treatment prior to randomization.

   - Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization (USA sites only) obtained from the
   patient prior to receipt of any study medication or beginning study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

   - Prior chemotherapy for metastatic prostate cancer (prior adjuvant chemotherapy is
   allowed provided it is non-taxane based and at least 6 months have passed since last
   treatment).

   - Prior treatment with other investigational agents within 4 weeks prior to
   randomization.

   - Planned concurrent treatment with unconventional therapy for malignancy (e.g.,
   vitamins, St. John's Wort, PC-SPES, saw palmetto, or other herbal other herbal
   remedies) based on medical history. Currently requiring anticoagulation (excluding use
   of heparin flush solutions for maintenance of catheter lines) for any thromboembolic
   disease based on medical history and physical examination.

   - Current or planned participation (from the time of randomization through 30 days after
   the last dose of either docetaxel or MEDI-522, whichever is the last drug
   discontinued) in a research protocol in which an investigational agent or therapy may
   be administered.

   - Any evidence of or history elicited by the investigator of prior treatment with
   MEDI-522 or MEDI-523.

   - Prior treatment with calcitonin, mithramycin, or gallium nitrate within 2 weeks prior
