Summary

This trial will study if a new cancer drug is effective and safe when used with a hormone therapy to treat prostate cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or is at high risk of spreading.

Who is the study for?
Men with high-risk or advanced prostate cancer that hasn't spread, who haven't had systemic anti-cancer treatments. They must have a certain level of health, including normal organ function and blood counts, be able to perform daily activities with ease or some difficulty (ECOG PS=0 or 1), and agree to use contraception.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness and safety of abemaciclib pills taken twice daily in combination with standard hormone therapy for prostate cancer. Participants will also receive radiation therapy as part of their treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Abemaciclib may cause diarrhea, fatigue, low white blood cell count which can lead to infection risk, liver problems like increased enzymes indicating damage or stress on the liver, deep vein thrombosis (blood clots), and possibly other side effects.
