Key Eligibility Criteria Details
  • Have histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell histology
  • Has current evidence of metastatic disease documented by either bone lesions on bone scan and/or soft tissue disease shown by computed tomography scan (CT)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
  • Has prostate cancer progression while receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) (or post bilateral orchiectomy) within 6 months before Screening
  • Has disease that progressed during or after treatment with one next-generation hormonal agent (NHA) for hormone sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) or non metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (nmHSPC), for at least 8 weeks (at least 14 weeks for participants with bone progression) Note: Participants may have received abiraterone acetate and docetaxel or darolutamide and docetaxel for HSPC. However, participants must have received no more than six cycles of docetaxel and had no radiographic disease progression while receiving docetaxel
  • ECOG PS 0-1
  • Has ongoing androgen deprivation with serum testosterone <50 ng/dL (<1.7 nM)
  • Has had prior treatment with Poly polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) or were deemed ineligible to receive treatment by the investigator or have refused PARPi treatment
  • Has adequate organ function
  • Has provided tumor tissue from a fresh core or excisional biopsy from soft tissue not previously irradiated. Samples from tumors progressing at a prior site of radiation are allowed
  • Participants who have adverse event (AEs) due to previous anticancer therapies must have recovered to ≤Grade 1 or baseline. Participants with endocrine-related AEs who are adequately treated with hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or participants who have ≤Grade 2 neuropathy are eligible
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected participants must have well controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART)
  • No presence of gastrointestinal condition
  • No history of pituitary dysfunction
  • No poorly controlled diabetes mellitus
  • No active or unstable cardio/cerebro-vascular disease, including thromboembolic events
  • Has not received a taxane-based chemotherapy and or NHA for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC)
  • Has not received prior treatment with radium for prostate cancer
  • Does not have a "superscan" bone scan defined as an intense symmetric activity in the bones and diminished renal parenchymal activity on baseline bone scan such that the presence of additional metastases in the future could not be evaluated
  • Has known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years
  • No known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases

Prostate Adenocarcinoma without small cell histology

Key Eligibility Criteria Details
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell features
  • Must provide a core or excisional biopsy from soft tissue or bone biopsy from soft tissue within 1 year of screening and after developing mCRPC
  • Has prostate cancer progression within 6 months prior to screening by means of one of the following: PSA progression as defined by a minimum of 2 rising PSA levels with an interval of ≥1 week between each assessment where the PSA value at screening should be ≥2 ng/mL; radiographic disease progression in soft tissue based on RECIST criteria with or without PSA progression; radiographic disease progression in bone defined as the appearance of 2 or more new bone lesions on bone scan with or without PSA progression.
  • Ongoing androgen deprivation with serum testoterone <50ng/dL
  • Stable doses of bone resorptive therapy
  • ECOG PS 0-1
  • Has previously received docetaxel for mCRPC. Prior treatment with one other chemotherapy is allowed. Up to 2 second-generation hormonal agents (eg. abiraterone, enzalutimide, etc.) are allowed. Prior ketoconazole is allowed. Docetaxel used more than once is considered as 1 therapy.
  • No diagnosis of immunodeficiency or systemic steroid therapy
  • No autoimmune disease within last 2 years
  • No known HBV/HCV/HIV
  • No known active CNS mets
  • No superscan bone scan
  • No active cardiovascular disease
  • No gastrointestinal malabsortion
  • No active hemoptysis
