This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects of nivolumab, ipilimumab and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage IVA-B head and neck cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving nivolumab, ipilimumab, and radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with stage IVA-B head and neck cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To investigate the safety of the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab with radiation treatment for definitive management of patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the 1 year progression-free survival (PFS) in all patients treated.

II. To assess the overall response rate and overall survival of patients at one year

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To explore whether PDL1 expression is associated with treatment response. II. To explore whether there is a net change in the Th1/Th2 ratio (IFN-gamma, IL-4, IL10, etc) or cell subset frequencies (M2 monocytes, myeloid-derived suppressor cells, etc) within a patient's peripheral blood either at baseline or in response to treatment is associated with treatment response.

III. To explore whether exosomes or other immune related serum biomarkers change after combination therapy.

This phase III trial tests two questions by two separate comparisons of therapies. The first question is whether enhanced therapy (apalutamide in combination with abiraterone + prednisone) added to standard of care (prostate radiation therapy and short term androgen deprivation) is more effective compared to standard of care alone in patients with prostate cancer who experience biochemical recurrence (a rise in the blood level of prostate specific antigen \[PSA\] after surgical removal of the prostate cancer).

A second question tests treatment in patients with biochemical recurrence who show prostate cancer spreading outside the pelvis (metastasis) by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. In these patients, the benefit of adding metastasis-directed radiation to enhanced therapy (apalutamide in combination with abiraterone + prednisone) is tested.

Diagnostic procedures, such as PET, may help doctors look for cancer that has spread to the pelvis. Androgens are hormones that may cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Apalutamide may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgens by the tumor cells. Metastasis-directed targeted radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors that have spread. This trial may help doctors determine if using PET results to deliver more tailored treatment (i.e., adding apalutamide, with or without targeted radiation therapy, to standard of care treatment) works better than standard of care treatment alone in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. For patients without PET-evidence of extrapelvic metastases, to evaluate whether the addition of enhanced systemic therapy to standard of care (SOC) salvage radiation therapy (RT) could prolong progression-free survival (PFS).

II. For patients with PET-evidence of extrapelvic metastases, to evaluate whether the addition of metastasis-directed RT to enhanced systemic therapy and SOC salvage RT could prolong PFS.

III. To compare overall quality of life, measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P) total score, at 6 months between the two sets of treatment arms (A with B and C with D). (QUALITY OF LIFE \[QOL\] OBJECTIVE)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate overall survival in each arm. II. To evaluate event-free survival in each arm. III. To evaluate time to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression in each arm.

IV. To assess the incidence of adverse events with the addition of enhanced systemic therapy in patients without PET-evidence of extrapelvic metastases.

V. To assess the incidence of adverse events with local ablative metastasis-directed RT for PET-positive metastatic disease in patients with PET-evidence of extrapelvic metastases.

VI. To estimate the detection rate of PET at the patient and regional level, and to evaluate its concordance with the follow-up Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved conventional imaging modalities (CIM) (as available) considered standard-of-care per institution, including computed tomography (CT), bone scintigraphy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and PET imaging.

VII. To determine the distribution of PET-positive lesions among anatomic sites (prostate fossa, intrapelvic soft tissue/lymph node, extrapelvic soft tissue/lymph node, and bone metastases) in patients with post-radical prostatectomy (RP) biochemical recurrence (BCR), correlated with PSA (level, doubling time, velocity) and other relevant clinical parameters.

VIII. To compare the change in overall QOL, measured by FACT-P total score, from baseline to 6 months between the two sets of treatment arms (A with B and C with D). (QOL OBJECTIVE) IX. To compare patient-reported fatigue (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy \[FACIT\]-Fatigue scores) at 6 months between the two sets of treatment arms (A with B and C with D). (QOL OBJECTIVE) X. To compare patient-reported overall QOL (FACT-P scores), fatigue (FACIT-Fatigue scores) and pain interference (patient reported outcomes measurement information system \[PROMIS\] Pain Interference Short Form 4a) between the two sets of treatment arms (A with B and C with D) at the time of disease progression. (QOL OBJECTIVE)

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I.To determine the value of repeat PET (PET2) at time of second PSA progression, clinical concern for progression, or 12 months after completion of enhanced systemic therapy, whichever comes first to assess response to therapy (enhanced systemic therapy +/- focal RT and/or androgen deprivation therapy \[ADT\]) compared to available standard response assessments (PSA and conventional imaging modalities \[CIM\]).

II. To compare cognitive function, measured by FACT - cognitive function (Cog) peritoneal cancer index (PCI) and total scores, between the three treatment arms receiving enhanced systemic treatment with ADT and apalutamide (Arms B, C, and D) and antiandrogen therapy (ADT) alone (Arm A) at 6 and 12 month. (QOL OBJECTIVE) III. To compare the change in cognitive function, measured by change in FACT-Cog PCI and total scores, from baseline to 6 and baseline to 12 months, between the three treatment arms receiving enhanced systemic treatment with ADT and apalutamide (Arms B, C, and D) and ADT alone (Arm A) at 6 and 12 months. (QOL OBJECTIVE) IV. To characterize longitudinal change in cognitive function between baseline and 24 months in patients with prostate cancer receiving treatment for biochemical recurrence (BCR) and define clinical and disease related characteristics associated with greater cognitive change by the FACT-Cog PCI and total scores. (QOL OBJECTIVE)

OUTLINE:

STEP 0: Patients undergo SOC PET/CT or PET/MR scan at baseline. Patients randomized to Arms C or D and receiving fluciclovine F18 intravenously (IV) undergo a repeat PET2 at time of PSA progression or clinical concerns for progression or 12 months after completion of enhanced systemic therapy, whichever occurs first. Patients in Arm C or D using another tracer for PET1 do not undergo PET2.

STEP 1: Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 arms based on results of fluciclovine F18 PET/CT or PET/MR in Step 0.

ARM A (PET NEGATIVE FOR EXTRA PELVIC-METASTASES): Patients undergo SOC external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for 6 months. Patients also receive goserelin acetate subcutaneously (SC), leuprolide acetate intramuscularly (IM), triptorelin IM, relugolix orally (PO), or degarelix SC for 6 months starting up to 3 months prior to EBRT but no later than 7 days after start of EBRT. All treatment continues for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM B (PET NEGATIVE FOR EXTRA PELVIC-METASTASES): Patients undergo SOC EBRT and receive goserelin acetate SC, leuprolide acetate IM, triptorelin IM, relugolix PO, or degarelix SC as in Arm A. Patients also receive apalutamide PO once daily (QD) for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM C: (PET POSITIVE FOR EXTRA PELVIC-METASTASES): Patients undergo SOC EBRT and receive goserelin acetate SC, leuprolide acetate IM, triptorelin IM, relugolix PO, or degarelix SC as in Arm A. Patients also receive apalutamide PO QD as in Arm B.

ARM D (PET POSITIVE FOR EXTRA PELVIC-METASTASES): Patients undergo SOC EBRT and receive goserelin acetate SC, leuprolide acetate IM, triptorelin IM, relugolix PO, or degarelix SC as in Arm A and apalutamide PO QD as in Arm B. Patients also undergo stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) or 3-dimensional (3D) conformal radiation therapy (CRT), intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) (including volume modulated arc therapy \[VMAT\]), and intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) over 3-10 fractions in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for the first 2 years, every 6 months for years 3-5, and then annually for years 6-10.

Treating Prostate Cancer That Has Come Back After Surgery With Apalutamide and Targeted Radiation Based on PET Imaging

Phase III Study of Local or Systemic Therapy INtensification DIrected by PET in Prostate CAncer Patients With Post-ProstaTEctomy Biochemical Recurrence (INDICATE)

The power of the PFS analysis is 85% using one-sided 0.025 level stratified logrank test. The overall type I error will be controlled using an O'Brien-Fleming boundary function

Will evaluate whether the addition of enhanced systemic therapy to standard of care salvage therapy could prolong PFS in this patient population. Will be an intention-to-treat analysis of all randomized patients and performed in parallel with patients with PET-evidence of extrapelvic metastases.

Will evaluate whether the addition of metastasis-directed radiation therapy to standard of care salvage therapy and enhanced systemic therapy could prolong PFS in this patient population. Will be an intention-to-treat analysis of all randomized patients and performed in parallel without patients with PET-evidence of extrapelvic metastases.

Descriptive statistics will be used to characterize QOL over time in each arm.

Will be characterized by the method of Kaplan and Meier and a logrank test will be used to compare OS between the two arms in each cohort.

Will be characterized by the method of Kaplan and Meier and a logrank test will be used to compare EFS between the two arms in each cohort.

Patients without any progression will be censored at the date of last disease assessment that shows free of PSA progression. Will be characterized by the method of Kaplan and Meier and a logrank test will be used to compare time to PSA progression between the two arms in each cohort.

Toxicity will be defined using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.

For the detection rate, the proportion of baseline standard of care 18F-fluciclovine PET (PET1) positive results at the patient and regional (prostate fossa, intrapelvic soft tissue/lymph node, extrapelvic soft tissue/lymph node, and bone metastases) level will be calculated and its 95% confidence interval will be estimated using the Exact method based on the binomial distribution.

Will use Cohen's Kappa coefficient to measure the agreement between dichotomized PET results and the dichotomized CIM results. Baseline CIM comparison will not be performed because as per our study eligibility criteria, baseline CIM will be negative for metastases.

The rate of 18F-fluciclovine PET-positive lesions will be reported for each anatomic site, including prostate fossa, intrapelvic soft tissue/lymph node, extrapelvic soft tissue/lymph node, and bone metastases. Their confidence intervals will be estimated using the Exact method for the binomial distribution. To evaluate if PSA (level, doubling time, velocity) and other relevant clinical parameters affects the positivity distribution, will use the logistic regression to model with the binary outcome (positive vs. negative from PET) and covariates will include anatomic site, PSA, and other clinical parameters. Will test the interactions between anatomic site and PSA (plus other clinical parameters) to see if the positivity distribution across anatomic site may change according to the levels of the interacted terms. Will use the technique of generalized estimating equation to account for the outcome correlations within subjects.

Analyses will be conducted to evaluate qualitative visual evidence of 18F-fluciclovine PET positive metastatic lesions and quantitative PET standardized-uptake value (SUV) changes on a lesion-to-lesion basis from 18F-fluciclovine PET1 (baseline) to PET2 on visually determined sites of recurrence and metastatic disease. This will be compared to reference standard-of-care conventional imaging (Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 criteria) and PSA response at PET2 time point to determine PET2 response to therapy. PET2 visual and quantitative assessment will also be compared to PFS in the time-to-event analysis using a log-rank test (PET2 visual assessment) and a Cox proportional hazards regression (PET2 quantitative assessment). PET SUV parameters to be obtained at PET1 and PET2 will include SUVmax, SUVpeak. PET SUV change from PET1 to PET2 will include absolute SUVmax and SUVpeak change (PET2-PET1) and percent change of SUVmax and SUVpeak (% change = 100\*\[(PET2-PET1)/PET1\]).)

For the PET-negative cohort, with 216 analyzable patients in each arm, the study will have about 84% power to detect a 6-point (0.29 standard deviation) difference between the two arms using a two-sample t test with two-sided type I error of 0.05. The power will be greater than 99% if the difference between the two arms is 10 points (0.48 standard deviation). For the PET-positive cohort, with 146 analyzable patients in each arm, the study will have 68% and 98% power to detect a 6-point (0.29 standard deviation) and a 10-point (0.48 standard deviation) differences between the two arms, respectively, using the same test.

A paired t test will be used to compare FACT-P scores at these two time points in each arm. A two-sample t test will be performed to compare the changes in FACT-P scores from baseline to 6 months between the two arms of each cohort. The FACIT-Fatigue scores at 6 months will be compared between the two arms of each cohort using a two-sample t test.

A paired t test will be used to compare FACT-P total scores, FACIT-Fatigue scores and pain scores at these two time points in each arm. The changes in these scores from baseline to progression will be evaluated in each arm.

Will be compared between two groups of patients on this study, patients receiving antiandrogen therapy (ADT) + apalutamide (Arms B, C and D) and patients receiving ADT alone (Arm A), at different time points. To ensure similarity of the three arms with systemic treatments (Arms B, C and D), a comparison in FACT-Cog total scores among these three arms will be performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test before combining them together to be compared with Arm A.
