Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: a. To evaluate efficacy of galeterone in terms of changes from baseline in PSA concentration b. To fully evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of galeterone at steady state ;Secondary Objective: a. To further evaluate the safety profile of galeterone b. To determine efficacy of galeterone in terms of radiographic findings (DW-MRI) c. To assess changes in specific bone markers from baseline d. To correlate changes in circulating tumor cell (CTC) counts to outcome, and expression of (androgen receptor) AR in tumor biopsies and CTCs. e. To assess the changes in specific markers in steroidogenic pathways;Primary end point(s): Safety • Incidence and severity of AEs • Change from baseline in the following additional safety parameters: clinical laboratory assessments, physical examination, and vital signs • Time matched triplicate ECGs • Treatment Compliance Efficacy Antitumor activity • Changes in histology on tumor biopsy samples • Changes in number of CTCs, AR status and any variants. Changes of CTC enumeration from baseline to Day 14 and end of study (Day 84, Trial Conclusion Visit). AR expression will be semi quantified at each of these time points PSA changes • Percentage of patients with 90%, 50% and 30% or greater decrease in PSA from baseline at end of treatment or PSA nadir (whichever comes first) • Maximal change in PSA response from baseline Imaging • Changes in magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) • Changes in NaF PET uptake or standard PET (optional). Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics Translational Assessments • Changes from baseline of specific markers in steroidogenic pathway • Assessment of pharmacokinetics (PK) • Changes in bone makers (bone alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, sCTX, uNTX, P1NP and TRAP-5b) • Changes in AR levels and histology in tumor biopsies from baseline to Day 28 and end of study (Day 84, Trial Conclusion Visit) • Assessment of galeterone concentration in serum. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end
