NADIR Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Phase II, Arm II (niraparib, GnRH, IMRT)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients undergo standard of care GnRH agonist androgen suppression therapy for 24 months, and niraparib PO QD for 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 8 weeks after starting niraparib, patients undergo standard of care IMRT 5 days per week for about 6-9 weeks depending on type of radiation therapy given in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group II: Phase I (niraparib, GnRH, IMRT)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients receive niraparib PO QD and receive standard of care GnRH agonist androgen suppression therapy. Treatment with niraparib continues for 12 months, and GnRH agonist therapy for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 8 weeks after starting niraparib and GnRH agonist, patients undergo standard of care IMRT 5 days per week for about 6-9 weeks, depending on type of radiation therapy given, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group III: Phase II, Arm I (GnRH, IMRT)Active Control2 Interventions
Patients undergo standard of care GnRH agonist androgen suppression therapy for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 8-28 weeks after starting GnRH agonist, patients undergo IMRT 5 days per week for about 6-9 weeks depending on type of radiation therapy given in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
