About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore whether androgen deprivation therapy combined with novel androgen receptor inhibitors, prostate cryoablation, and metronomic cyclophosphamide is superior to the current treatment regimen of androgen deprivation therapy plus novel androgen receptor inhibitors for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. It will also learn about the safety of prostate cryoablation, and metronomic cyclophosphamide for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does prostate cryoablation, and metronomic cyclophosphamide delay the progression of metastatic prostate cancer? Does prostate cryoablation, and metronomic cyclophosphamide reduce symptomatic local events of metastatic prostate cancer?

Researchers will explore if androgen deprivation therapy combined with novel androgen receptor inhibitors, prostate cryoablation, and metronomic cyclophosphamide works to treat metastatic prostate cancer.

Participants will:

Receive treatment of androgen deprivation therapy and novel androgen receptor inhibitors until progression.

Receive prostate cryoablation surgery and take cyclophosphamide. Visit the clinic every 1-3 months for checkups and tests. Keep a diary of their symptoms.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Prostate cryoablation

    Procedure/Surgery

    Enrolled patients will receive prostate cryoablation within 6 months of starting androgen deprivation therapy.

  • Cyclophosphamide (CTX)

    Drug

    Enrolled patients will receive cyclophosphamide (50mg daily) one day after prostate cryoablation and continue for a total of six months.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

PSA progression-free survival

Defined as the time from the initiation of androgen deprivation therapy to the occurrence of PSA progression or death.

Time frame
From date of initiation of androgen deprivation therapy until the date of PSA progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Radiographic progression-free survival

Defined as the time from the initiation of androgen deprivation therapy to the occurrence of radiographic progression of death.

Time frame
From date of initiation of androgen deprivation therapy until the date of radiographic progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years
2

mCRPC-free survival

Defined as the time from the initiation of androgen deprivation therapy to progression to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) or death.

Time frame
From date of initiation of androgen deprivation therapy until the date of progression to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years
3

Overall survival

Defined as the time from the initiation of androgen deprivation therapy to death from any cause.

Time frame
From date of initiation of androgen deprivation therapy until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years
4

Incidence of symptomatic local events

Symptomatic local events are defined as any of the following conditions: urinary tract infection, indwelling catheterization, acute kidney injury, transurethral resection of the prostate, urinary obstruction, indwelling ureteral stent placement, nephrostomy, colostomy, or surgery for intestinal obstruction.

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 3 year
