Summary
This trial tests a drug to shrink/destroy prostate cancer before surgery. It's studied before surgery to see if it's safe and effective.
Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with high-risk, non-metastatic prostate cancer that's not spread beyond the prostate and has specific genetic features (PTEN loss). They should have a life expectancy of more than 10 years, be able to take oral medication, and have no severe health issues. Men must use condoms if with a partner who can bear children. Those with active hepatitis or HIV, other cancers, significant heart disease or recent major surgery aren't eligible.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing whether taking capivasertib along with intensified hormone therapy drugs (abiraterone acetate and leuprolide) before surgical removal of the prostate can shrink tumors in men whose cancer hasn't spread but is at high risk for progression.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include hormonal changes leading to hot flashes or sexual dysfunction, digestive issues like nausea or diarrhea from oral medications, potential liver function changes due to drug metabolism, fatigue from treatment intensity and increased risk of infections.
