FOR46 and Enzalutamide for the Treatment of Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer

Trial Status: closed to accrual

This phase Ib/II trial studies the effect of FOR46 and enzalutamide in treating patients with castration resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). FOR46 is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. FOR46 is a monoclonal antibody linked to a chemotherapy drug. FOR46 is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as CD46 receptors, and delivers the chemotherapy to kill them. Enzalutamide blocks testosterone from reaching prostate cancer cells by binding to a receptor on the prostate cancer cells, called androgen receptors. This may slow the growth of the tumor cells and may cause them to shrink. Giving FOR46 and enzalutamide may work better in treating metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer.
