Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment for prostate cancer that combines hormone therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and effective.

Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with newly metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer who haven't had certain treatments like androgen deprivation therapy or chemotherapy for prostate cancer in the last 6 months. They should have a life expectancy over a year, good organ function, no severe allergies to trial drugs, and agree to use contraception.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing REGN2810 combined with hormonal therapy (Degarelix or Leuprolide Acetate) and Docetaxel chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this mix can make prostate-specific antigen levels undetectable after six months of treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system reactions that could affect organs, fatigue, blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, allergic reactions related to infusion of the drug, and issues from hormonal changes.
