Study Summary

This trial looks at how well olaparib, with or without cediranib, works to treat patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor, which means it prevents PARP proteins from repairing DNA mutations. This may stop tumor cells from growing. Cediranib is an enzyme inhibitor that may also stop tumor cell growth.

Who is the study for?
Men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and is resistant to castration treatment. Participants must have had at least one prior therapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), be able to swallow pills, and not have untreated brain metastases or a history of allergic reactions to similar drugs. They should also meet specific health criteria like controlled blood pressure, adequate organ function, and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if combining two oral medications, Cediranib and Olaparib, is more effective than using just Olaparib in men with advanced prostate cancer. The study will randomly assign participants into groups receiving either the combination or the single drug to compare their effects on tumor growth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include nausea, fatigue, anemia (low red blood cell counts), increased risk of bleeding or clotting issues due to changes in platelet count or coagulation parameters, high blood pressure management needs when taking Cediranib, and potential heart-related side effects.
