Study Summary

This trial is testing a combination of immunotherapy and two other drugs to see if it is effective in treating localized prostate cancer.

Who is the study for?
Men with localized prostate cancer who haven't had previous treatments for it, are over 18, in good health with proper organ and marrow function, and eligible for surgery. They must have high-risk disease for certain parts of the trial, a testosterone level above 150 ng/dL, agree to use contraception and not donate sperm.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The effectiveness of Atezolizumab alone or combined with Etrumadenant or Tocilizumab is being tested before surgical removal of the prostate. The study aims to see if these treatments can help the immune system fight cancer better than current methods.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system attacking normal cells (autoimmunity), infusion-related reactions like fever or chills, fatigue, hormonal imbalances due to anti-androgen therapy, and potential blood disorders.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Cohort C (atezolizumab, tocilizumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients will receive one (1) cycle of neoadjuvant atezolizumab and one (1) cycle of tocilizumab, 6mg/kg will be administered IV on day 1 of a 14 day IV prior to RP; atezolizumab will be administered in an identical fashion as Cohort A. RP will occur 21 days (+/- 7 days) following the final dose of atezolizumab. No further study therapy will be administered following RP.
Group II: Cohort B (atezolizumab, etrumadenant)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients will receive one (1) cycle of atezolizumab, 1200mg intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of a 14 day cycle and etrumadenant will be taken at a dose of 150mg PO, once daily, until 48 hours prior to RP, for at least 12 days. Radical Prostatectomy (RP) will occur 21 days (+/- 7 days) following the final dose of atezolizumab. No further study therapy will be administered following RP.
Group III: Cohort A (atezolizumab)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients receive one (1) cycle of atezolizumab, 1200mg intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of a 14 day cycle. Radical Prostatectomy (RP) will occur 21 days (+/- 7 days) following the final dose of atezolizumab. No further study therapy will be administered following RP.
