Overview

Substudy 01A is part of a larger research study that is testing experimental treatments for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The larger study is the umbrella study (U01).

The goal of substudy 01A is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of opevesostat-based treatment combinations, or as a single agent, in participants with mCRPC.

This substudy will have two phases: a safety lead-in phase and an efficacy phase. The safety lead-in phase will be used to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and to establish a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the opevesostat-based treatment combinations. There will be no hypothesis testing in this study.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

The main inclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following:

• Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell histology.
• Prostate cancer progression and received androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) or post bilateral orchiectomy within 6 months before screening.
• Evidence of disease progression from either, >4 weeks from last flutamide treatment, or >6 weeks from last bicalutamide or nilutamide treatment, if receiving first generation anti-androgen therapy as last treatment therapy.
• Current evidence of metastatic disease.
• Prior treatment with 1 to 2 novel hormonal agent(s) (NHA) for non-metastatic, or metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer or castration-resistant prostate cancer and have disease progression during or after treatment.
• Treatment with bone resorptive therapy (including, but not limited to, bisphosphonate or denosumab) must have been on stable doses for >4 weeks before randomization.
• Participants who experienced adverse events (AEs) due to previous anticancer therapies must have recovered to <Grade 1 or baseline.
• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected participants must have well controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy.
• Participants who are Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive are eligible if they have received Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) antiviral therapy for at least 4 weeks, and have undetectable HBV viral load.
• Participants with a history of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are eligible if HCV viral load is undetectable.

Exclusion Criteria:

The main exclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following:
