Official Title: A Single Arm Phase 2 Multicenter Study Determining the Response to Cabazitaxel in Metastatic Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) Patients With AR-V7 Positive Circulating Tumor Cells (
Brief Summary:
After failure on docetaxel, which has been the standard first line therapy for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), several treatment options are currently available.
In retrospective studies, resistance has been described to two of the treatment options, enzalutamide and abiraterone, when a splice variant of the Androgen Receptor (AR-V7) is present on circulating tumor cells (CTCs). The investigators hypothesize that patients with AR-V7 positive CTCs do have a meaningful response to cabazitaxel.
