Brief summary

This is an open label study of abiraterone acetate in combination with BEZ235 and abiraterone acetate in combination with BKM120 in CRPC patients with abiraterone acetate failure.

Detailed description

A dose-escalation part will first determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recomended dose for expansion (RDE) of abiraterone acetate in combination with BEZ235 and abiraterone acetate in combination with BKM120 in CRPC patients with abiraterone acetate failure. Subsequently, the MTD and/or RDE of each combination will be investigated in two expansion treatment groups of CRPC patients who have failed abiraterone acetate therapy.

Interventions

DRUGBKM120

BKM120 will be supplied as 10mg and 50mg hard gelatin capsules. At each patient's visit, patient will reecive a prescription of an adequate drug supply for self administration at home.

DRUGBEZ235

BEZ235 will be supplied as 50mg, 100mg, 200mg, 300mg and 400mg SDS sachets. At each patient's visit, patient will reecive a prescription of an adequate drug supply for self administration at home.

Inclusion criteria

* Adult males ≥ 18 years old * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status ≤ 2 * Patient must have a castrate level of testosterone (\<= 50 ng/dL or 1.7 nmol/L). ( Castrate status must be maintained by continued GnRH analogues unless patient has undergone surgical orchiectomy). * Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced or metastatic prostate cancer. * Advanced or metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer progression after abiraterone acetate failure * Patients should have no more than 2 lines of prior chemotherapies including cytotoxic agents * Discontinuation of all anti-androgen, anti-neoplastic or investigational treatment \>= 4 weeks (6 weeks for bicalutamide).

Exclusion criteria

* Previous treatment with PI3K pathway inhibitors (e.g. PI3K, AKT, mTOR inhibitor), ketoconazole, CYP17 inhibitors (exception of AA), or enzalutamide. * Patient has active uncontrolled or symptomatic CNS metastases * Inadequately controlled hypertension (e.g. systolic blood pressure \>=160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>=95 mmHg) * Patient has a QTcF \> 480 msec on the screening ECG (using the QTcF formula), has a short/long QT syndrome, or history of QT prolongation/Torsades de Pointes * Patient has impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of study drugs * Patient has a medically documented history of or active major depressive episode, bipolar disorder (I or II), obsessive-compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, a history of suicidal attempt or ideation, or homicidal ideation (e.g. risk of doing harm to self or others) * Patients who experienced dose reductions and/or treatment interruptions due to abiraterone acetate related toxicities (i.e. serious AEs, AEs, liver toxicities during abiraterone acetate treatment

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)from days 1-35 in BEZ235/abiraterone acetate arm and from days 1-28 in BKM120/abiraterone acetate armDose escalation part: Determine MTD and /or RDE of the combinations abiraterone acetate + BEZ235 and abiraterone acetate + BKM120 by assessing the incidence of DLTs in cycle 1
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) decline ≥ 30%At week 12 or later after treatment discontinuationDose expansion part: Assess anti-tumor activity of the combinations (abiraterone acetate + BEZ235 and abiraterone acetate + BKM120) in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients with abiraterone acetate failure as on treatment PSA progression according to prostate cancer working group criteria 2 (PCWG2) by assessing PSA decline ≥ 30% at Week 12 or later.
