Cabazitaxel With BKM120 in Patients With Metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer Following Treatment With Docetaxel: Phase II Study With Safety Lead-in Cohort
Although there have been advances in the treatment of patients with metastatic
castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), all patients eventually develop resistance to
available therapy. Docetaxel is the accepted first-line agent followed by cabazitaxel in the
post-docetaxel phase. In this study the investigators propose to evaluate BKM120, a PI3K
inhibitor, with cabazitaxel in the treatment of patients with advanced prostate cancer.
castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), all patients eventually develop resistance to
available therapy. Docetaxel is the accepted first-line agent followed by cabazitaxel in the
post-docetaxel phase. In this study the investigators propose to evaluate BKM120, a PI3K
inhibitor, with cabazitaxel in the treatment of patients with advanced prostate cancer.
This study will be conducted in two parts. In a lead-in cohort, the feasibility and safety
of administering BKM120 with a standard dose of cabazitaxel will be assessed. If safety is
confirmed, a subsequent Phase II portion will assess the activity of the combination in
patients with mCRPC previously treated with docetaxel. The treatment will consist of 3-week
(21-day) cycles.
The ultimate purpose of this study will be to determine progression-free survival, response
rate, disease control rate and overall survival of patients treated with the combination
regimen and compare outcomes to historical results with single-agent cabazitaxel.

days, a minimum of 10 days between termination of the investigational drug and
administration of BKM120 is required.
4. Previous chemotherapy with any agent other than docetaxel. All patients must be ≥28
days after their most recent chemotherapy and have recovered from side effects.
5. Patient has received wide field radiotherapy (including therapeutic radioisotopes
such as strontium 89) ≤28 days or limited field radiation for palliation ≤7 days
prior to starting study drug or has not recovered from side effects of such therapy.
6. Major surgical procedures ≤28 days of beginning study drug, or minor surgical
procedures ≤7 days. No waiting required following port-a-cath placement.
7. Clinical significant peripheral neuropathy (defined as CTCAE v4.0 Grade ≥2)
regardless of causality.
8. Mood disorders as judged by the Investigator or a Psychiatrist, or who meets the
cut-off score of ≥12 in the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9 or a cut-off score
of ≥ 15 in the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)-7 mood scale, respectively, or
selects a positive response of '1, 2, or 3' to question 9 regarding potential for
suicidal thoughts in the PHQ-9 (independent of the total score or the PHQ-9)
