Measuring the CXCR2 Biomarker to Predict Clinical Benefit in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Patients Receiving SX-682 plus Enzalutamide in the SYNERGY-201 Trial, COMPASS Trial

Trial Status: active

This clinical trial studies whether measuring the CXCR2 biomarker can predict who will receive clinical benefit from the drug combination SX-682 plus enzalutamide in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) who are receiving the drug combination in the NCT06228053; Duke Institutional Review Board # Pro00113209 (SYNERGY-201) trial. A biomarker is a biological molecule found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a condition or disease. A biomarker may be used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or condition. Research has shown that prostate cancer patients with the CXCR2 biomarker may develop metastatic disease sooner and may also develop resistance to certain therapies. Researchers hope that by measuring the CXCR2 biomarker in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients receiving SX-682 plus enzalutamide in the SYNERGY-201 trial they will be able to learn more about the biomarker, which may help predict who will receive clinical benefit from the drug combination.
