Evaluation of Zimberelimab, Etrumadenant, Quemliclustat and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Hormone Sensitive Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial tests how well zimberelimab (AB122), etrumadenant (AB928), quemliclustat (AB680), and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) (radiotherapy) works in treating patients with hormone sensitive prostate cancer that has spread to a limited number of sites (oligometastatic). Zimberelimab is a type of drug called an antibody, and it is similar to the antibodies made by the immune system to protect the body from harm. Zimberelimab blocks a protein called programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1), which usually acts as a “brake” on the immune system. Blocking this protein is like releasing the brakes, so that the immune system can target cancer cells and kill them. Etrumadenant and quemliclustat are designed to block adenosine activity, a substance produced inside tumors that plays a key role in immunosuppression (suppression of the body’s immune system and its ability to fight infections and other diseases) and tumor cell growth. By blocking adenosine, etrumadenant and quemliclustat activate the immune system to kill tumor cells, which may help shrink or stabilize cancer. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving these medications together in combination with SBRT may cause the immune system to recognize and kill tumor cells more effectively than if one drug was used by itself in patients with hormone sensitive oligometastatic prostate cancer.
