Study Summary

This trial is collecting tissues and blood from patients with metastatic prostate cancer and other genitourinary cancers to study how best to treat them.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with advanced genitourinary cancers, including prostate, kidney, and bladder cancer. Participants must have metastatic disease that can be biopsied and an ECOG performance status of 0-2, indicating they are fully active or at least ambulatory. They should understand the study and consent to participate. Specific cohorts require different treatments like hormone therapy for prostate cancer or systemic therapies for renal cell carcinoma.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The PROMOTE trial is collecting tissue and blood samples from patients with metastatic genitourinary cancers to identify markers predicting treatment response. It involves several cohorts based on disease type/status and planned therapy post-biopsy: hormonal inhibition, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted/investigational therapy, DNA damage response pathway targeting drugs.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While this trial primarily focuses on biomarker collection rather than direct intervention effects, potential side effects may arise from biopsy procedures such as bleeding or pain at the biopsy site. Systemic therapies used in various cohorts could also cause a range of side effects depending on the specific treatment administered.

Trial Design

10Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Group R: Advanced Renal Cell CarcinomaExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving therapies that target DNA damage response pathways to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group II: Group G2:Castration Sensitive,Pre-treated w/ sub-optimal PSAExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving therapies that target DNA damage response pathways to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group III: Group G1: Castration Sensitive, ADT naïve and ADT < 3 monthsExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving therapies that target DNA damage response pathways to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group IV: Group F: Aggressive Variant DiseaseExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients with variants of disease that display aggressive behavior to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group V: Group E: DNA Damage ResponseExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving therapies that target DNA damage response pathways to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group VI: Group D: Targeted Therapy Not Otherwise SpecifiedExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving targeted therapy and investigational therapeutics to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group VII: Group C: RadiotherapyExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving radiotherapy to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group VIII: Group B: ImmunotherapyExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving immunotherapy to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group IX: Group A: Androgen Signaling InhibitionExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving treatments that inhibit androgen signaling to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.
Group X: Cohort U: Advanced Urothelial CarcinomaExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Tumor biopsies: required prior to treatment and optional at time of disease progression. Blood draws: required prior to treatment, every 3 months during treatment, and at time of disease progression. Molecular markers will be studied in patients receiving therapies that target DNA damage response pathways to identify predictors of benefit and/or response. Treatments are assigned per investigator discretion.

What are the primary goals of this experiment?

"Over the course of five years, this study will principally monitor Median Progression-Free Survival (PFS). Secondary objectives include a Comparison of pathway activity signatures and overall survival as measured by Logrank test, ascertaining the Frequency of presence of somatic mutations in select genes through descriptive statistics for categorical data; plus an evaluation on Objective Response Rate (ORR) using either PCWG2 criteria or RECIST v1.1 depending on patient category."
