Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to: a) establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of niraparib combination therapies (Combinations 1 and 2) and b) to determine the relative bioavailability of niraparib and abiraterone acetate (AA) in combination (Combination 3) in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This multicenter study will evaluate safety and efficacy of niraparib in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Combination 1 will combine niraparib with the anti-programmed cell death protein (PD)-1 monoclonal antibody cetrelimab, in participants with mCRPC. Combination 1 has 2 parts: in Part 1 (dose selection), participants will be enrolled to establish RP2D doses of niraparib and cetrelimab; and Part 2 (dose expansion) will evaluate the combination therapy in an expanded number of participants into 2 cohorts (biomarker positive or biomarker negative). Combination 2 will combine niraparib with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AA-P) in mCRPC participants with DNA-repair gene defects (DRD). Combination 3 will evaluate the relative bioavailability (BA) of niraparib and AA in combination. In a pharmacokinetics (PK) assessment phase, niraparib and AA will be administered, and in an extension phase, niraparib and AA-P will be administered. Combinations 1 and 2 will have 5 phases: A Pre-screening Phase, a Screening Phase, a Treatment Phase, a Follow-up Phase, and a Long-term Extension (LTE) Phase; Combination 3 has 3 phases: A Screening Phase, A PK Assessment Phase, an Extension Phase (including LTE phase). Study evaluations will include efficacy, PK, PK/pharmacodynamics, biomarkers, safety and tolerability.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Combination 1:Dose Selection: Niraparib + cetrelimab (Part 1)

Dose regimen 1: The participants will receive niraparib 200 milligram (mg) orally once daily in combination with cetrelimab 240 mg intravenously (IV) once every 2 weeks. Dose regimen 2: The participants will receive niraparib 200 mg orally once daily in combination with cetrelimab 480 mg IV once every 4 weeks in 28-day treatment cycles until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or the sponsor terminates the study. The safety evaluation team (SET) will determine if an additional cohort is necessary, based on the data from dose regimens 1 and 2. Participants in the Treatment Phase of this combination will be offered the option to enter the Long-term Extension Phase of the study.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Niraparib 200 mg

Intervention Type DRUG

Participants will receive niraparib 200 mg orally.

Cetrelimab 240 mg

Intervention Type DRUG

Cetrelimab 480 mg

Intervention Type DRUG

Participants will receive cetrelimab 480 mg IV every 4 weeks.

Combination 1:Dose Expansion: Niraparib + cetrelimab (Part 2)

Participants will be assigned to either Cohort 1A (Biomarker \[BM\] positive \[+\]) or Cohort 1B (BM negative \[-\]) and will receive established RP2D of cetrelimab and niraparib, in Part 2 until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or the sponsor terminates the study. A futility analysis will be performed for the Cohort 1B after 10 BM- participants are enrolled in Part 2. This cohort will be closed if the response is less than predetermined response rate as outlined in the protocol. Participants in the Treatment Phase of this combination will be offered the option to enter the Long-term Extension Phase of the study.
