This multi-institution open label study has a Phase 1 and Phase 2 component. The Phase 1 dose escalation stage is to establish the tolerability of ipilimumab to be used in combination with the standard clinical dose of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in chemotherapy and immunotherapy-naïve patients with progressive metastatic CRPC. Due to the overlapping potential hepatic toxicity between abiraterone and ipilimumab, a Lead in Therapy with abiraterone plus prednisone for 2 cycles will assess for adverse events related to the abiraterone plus prednisone. Patients, who tolerate well the Lead in therapy as defined by Grade 1 or less AEs, will pursue Combination Therapy. Patients with AEs Grade ≥ 2 after Lead in Therapy will be excluded and replaced. The Phase 2 stage will assess efficacy and confirm an acceptable safety profile of the recommended dose.

Abiraterone acetate (JanssenBiotech, Inc/Johnson \& Johnson) 1000 mg orally daily plus prednisone 5 mg orally twice daily will be administered continuously during the duration of the trial. Starting at cycle 3 (Combination Therapy), Ipilimumab (Bristol-Myers Squibb) will be infused intravenously (IV) once every 3 weeks for a total of 4 infusions.

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, taking ipilimumab with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone has on the patient and the prostate cancer. Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone are drugs that lower testosterone (testosterone stimulates prostate cancer growth). Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone is a treatment for patients with prostate cancer.

Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone has not been used together with ipilimumab before. This study will test how they work together. Each patient will receive abiraterone acetate, prednisone and ipilimumab.

A Phase 2 Study Combining Ipilimumab With Abiraterone Acetate Plus Prednisone in Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy-naïve Patients With Progressive Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer

AEs will be graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) grading scale, version 4.0.

which is defined as the time from the start of therapy until the criteria for progression are met

PSA levels will be assessed every 4 weeks during the Lead in Therapy, every 3 weeks during the Combination Therapy and every 4 weeks during the Maintenance Therapy. Outcomes will be reported both by the percent change in PSA from baseline and Week 21 (or earlier for those who discontinue therapy) and the maximum decline in PSA using a waterfall plot.

Measurable disease in viscera (liver or lung) is defined as per PCWG2 modified RECIST 1.1 as a lesion ≥10 mm in its longest diameter as measured with conventional techniques (ie, CT or MRI). For a lymph node to be considered measurable, the minimum diameter must be ≥20 mm in long axis when assessed by CT scan. All other lesions (or sites of disease) will be considered nonmeasurable disease.

Radionucleotide bone scan outcome should be recorded as either new lesions or no new lesions. On bone scan, progression of bone metastases is defined as the appearance of 2 or more new bone lesions compared to the baseline scan. In the case of the first Week 8 and Week 16 assessment scans a confirmatory scan performed 6 weeks later needs to shows 2 or more additional new lesions (for a total of at least 4 new lesions seen since baseline) for progression to be documented (the date of progression is always the date of the first scan showing the change).

Degarelix

Howard I Scher, MD

In April 2011, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the oral drug abiraterone acetate (Zytiga ®) in combination with prednisone (a steroid) to treat patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received prior docetaxel (chemotherapy). In December 2012, the FDA approved Zytiga ® in combination with prednisone to treat patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have not received prior chemotherapy. Degarelix (Firmagon ®), a testosterone lowering agent given as a monthly injection, is FDA approved for the treatment of patients with advanced prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate abiraterone acetate and prednisone in combination with degarelix as a possible treatment for PSA recurrent prostate cancer as compared to abiraterone acetate alone and degarelix alone. This will be the first time these drugs will be used together.

3-arm Study of Abiraterone Acetate Alone, Abiraterone Acetate Plus Degarelix, a GnRH Antagonist, and Degarelix Alone for Patients With Prostate Cancer With a Rising PSA or a Rising PSA and Nodal Disease Following Definitive Radical Prostatectomy

A Phase 2, Randomized, 3-arm Study of Abiraterone Acetate Alone, Abiraterone Acetate Plus Degarelix, a GnRH Antagonist, and Degarelix Alone for Patients With Prostate Cancer With a Rising PSA or a Rising PSA and Nodal Disease Following Definitive Radical Prostatectomy

defined as an undetectable PSA (using a routine non-ultrasensitive PSA assay) with non-castrate level of testosterone (\>150 ng/dL) at 18 months from the time of treatment initiation (PSA0).

In addition to an undetectable PSA, any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm (Complete Response per RECIST) in order to meet the criteria for PFS. Outcome in subjects who develop radiographically evident metastatic disease while on study will be considered treatment failures independent of their respective PSA values.

The percentage of patients with a non-castrate level of testosterone (\>150 ng/dL) and an undetectable PSA at 8 months from PSA0 will be measured.

with particular attention to libido, potency, anxiety, depression, hot flashes, and fatigue. Effects of each arm on health-related quality of life will be assessed via PRO Survey (Appendix C) completed on paper by the patient at the following study visits: Up to 30 Days Prior to Randomization, each Day 1 of Treatment Cycle, End of Treatment, and each Post-Treatment Follow-up.Effects of each arm on quality of life,

Safety will be evaluated according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0. Safety assessments will be based on medical review of adverse event reports and the results of vital sign measurements, physical examinations and clinical laboratory tests throughout the conduct of the study.

Testosterone and LH recovery rates will be measured at 8 months from the start of randomization and at each month of the 10 month follow up period.

Tissue samples will be utilized for morphologic assessment, percent tumor involvement (if applicable), and immunohistochemistry. The immunohistochemical markers assessed may be AR, PTEN, PSMA, fatty acid synthase (FASN), phospho-AMPK, phospho-ACC, phospho-S6 kinase, phospho-Akt for the assessment of the AMPK, lipid synthesis, mTOR pathways, and immunological markers.
