Tarlatamab for the Treatment of DLL3 Positive Metastatic Prostate Cancer and Neuroendocrine Prostate Cancer, The TIDAL Trial
This phase II clinical trial studies how well tarlatamab works in treating patients with delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) positive prostate cancer or neuroendocrine prostate cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Tarlatamab is a bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE), which works by binding to two different proteins. Tarlatamab binds to the DLL3 protein found on the surface of tumor cells and to the surface of cells of the immune system (T-cells), which play a key role in the immune system’s fighter response. By directing the immune cells to the DLL3 on tumor cells, tarlatamab may strengthen the immune system’s ability to fight tumor cells.

- Participants must agree to use a medically acceptable method of birth control (e.g., spermicide in conjunction with a barrier such as a condom) or sexual abstinence for the duration of the study, including 60 days after the last dose of study drug. Sperm donation is prohibited during the study and for 60 days after the last dose of study drug. Female partners must use hormonal or barrier contraception unless postmenopausal or abstinent.
Exclusion Criteria

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the efficacy of tarlatamab in DLL3 positive advanced prostate cancer as measured by the 24-week radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) rate per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) with Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) modifications for soft tissue disease and PCWG3 criteria for bone disease.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the efficacy of tarlatamab in DLL3 positive advanced prostate cancer as measured by overall response rate (ORR), median duration of response, median rPFS, median composite progression-free survival (PFS), and median overall survival.
II. To evaluate safety.
CORRELATIVE/EXPLORATORY/TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the change in tissue expression of DLL3 and other cell surface antigens during the course of tarlatamab treatment.
II. To evaluate the association between efficacy outcomes (at the per-participant and per-lesion levels) and degree of expression of DLL3 as measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC).
III. To evaluate changes in plasma biomarkers, including circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA), during the course of tarlatamab treatment.
IV. To evaluate neuroendocrine differentiation signatures from ctDNA during the course of tarlatamab treatment.
V. To evaluate androgen receptor (AR) pathway transcriptional activation from ctDNA to determine an association with clinical outcomes.
VI. To evaluate ctDNA levels during the course of tarlatamab treatment and its association with clinical outcomes.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive tarlatamab intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15 of cycle 1 and on days 1 and 15 of cycles thereafter. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo tumor biopsy during screening and on study, as well as computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), bone scans, and blood sample collection throughout the study. Patients may also undergo an optional tumor biopsy at the end of study treatment.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up within 14 days, at 60 days, and then every 3 months for 2 years.
