Summary

This trial is testing a new combination of drugs to treat hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancer. The goal is to find the safe dosage and to see if the combination is feasible to administer.

See full description

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer that has spread, who haven't had chemotherapy or immunotherapy before. They should be on hormone therapy for no more than 12 weeks and agree to use contraception. Excluded are those with certain types of prostate cancer, prior treatments like cabozantinib, ongoing severe illnesses, active infections like hepatitis B/C or HIV, recent surgeries, or known brain metastases.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The CABIOS Trial is testing a combination of drugs (cabozantinib and abiraterone acetate/prednisone) alongside nivolumab in patients continuing androgen deprivation therapy. The aim is to find the safest dose for phase 2 trials while assessing if this regimen can be safely given to men with advanced prostate cancer.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects include high blood pressure from cabozantinib; liver issues from abiraterone; immune-related reactions such as inflammation in organs from nivolumab; fatigue; digestive problems; changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk.
