What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial explores a new treatment called AZD9750 for individuals with metastatic prostate cancer that has spread. Researchers aim to assess the safety and effectiveness of AZD9750 both alone and in combination with another drug, saruparib. The study seeks participants diagnosed with prostate cancer that has progressed despite low testosterone levels and previous treatments like hormone therapy or chemotherapy. Those with prostate cancer that has spread and who have noticed worsening symptoms or rising PSA levels might be suitable candidates. As a Phase 1, Phase 2 trial, this study focuses on understanding how AZD9750 works in people and measuring its effectiveness in an initial group, offering participants a chance to contribute to groundbreaking research.

Do I have to stop taking my current medications for the trial?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.

Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?

Research has shown that AZD9750, a new treatment for prostate cancer, may help reduce or even shrink tumors, suggesting potential effectiveness. However, detailed safety information for humans remains limited as the treatment is still in early trials. These trials are crucial for understanding human responses to the drug.

When combined with another drug, saruparib, some early information about saruparib's safety is available. Studies have indicated that saruparib, when used with other treatments, can cause tiredness, nausea, or low blood counts. These side effects are common in many cancer treatments and are usually manageable by doctors.

Since AZD9750 and its combination with saruparib are in the early stages of testing (Phase 1/2), researchers are closely monitoring their safety. This phase involves finding the right dose and checking for any serious side effects. Participating in such a trial contributes to important research to ensure the treatment is safe and effective.12345

Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?

Researchers are excited about AZD9750 for prostate cancer because it represents a novel approach compared to traditional treatments like hormone therapy, chemotherapy, or surgery. AZD9750 offers a unique mechanism of action, potentially targeting cancer cells in a way that current therapies do not. Furthermore, in some trial arms, AZD9750 is being combined with Saruparib, which could enhance its effectiveness by tackling the cancer through multiple pathways. This combination approach might offer improved outcomes for patients who have not responded well to existing treatments.

What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for prostate cancer?

Research shows that AZD9750 may help treat prostate cancer by targeting a specific pathway that aids cancer growth. In earlier studies, AZD9750 not only slowed tumor growth but also shrank tumors in some cases. Tests on animals demonstrated that AZD9750 significantly slowed tumor growth. In this trial, some participants will receive AZD9750 alone, while others will receive a combination of AZD9750 and saruparib. Early results suggest that the combination works well for patients with advanced prostate cancer. These findings offer hope for those considering this treatment option.23467

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for adults with metastatic prostate cancer who have seen their disease progress. They must have a confirmed diagnosis, low testosterone levels, and show signs of the cancer worsening on scans or through rising PSA levels. Participants need to be in good physical condition with proper organ and bone marrow function.
