TPS5127 Background: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) ± androgen receptor pathway inhibitor therapy is a primary treatment for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, but is noncurative and has significant toxicities when used long-term. In patients with OMPC for whom delaying ADT is appropriate, metastasis-directed therapy such as stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has been shown to provide local disease control. However, many patients do not experience a complete prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response and develop poly-metastatic disease. [ 177 Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 ( 177 Lu-PSMA-617) is a prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radioligand therapy with demonstrated efficacy and a manageable safety profile in patients with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer in the VISION and PSMAfore trials. PSMA-DC (NCT05939414) is an ongoing, international, randomized phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 versus observation after SBRT in delaying castration and disease progression in patients with PSMA-positive OMPC. Methods: Eligible patients have histologically confirmed prostate cancer, biochemical recurrence post-definitive treatment, OMPC with ≤ 5 PSMA-positive metastatic lesions including ≥ 1 distant metastasis on PSMA PET/CT scans (all must be amenable to SBRT), PSA doubling time < 10 months and non-castration testosterone levels (> 100 ng/dL). Exclusion criteria include distant metastasis by conventional imaging (CI; CT/MRI and bone scans) at screening, prior ADT (except adjuvant ADT completed > 12 months before randomization), or other systemic therapy for metastatic prostate cancer. Patients (N = ~450) will be randomized 2:1 to 177 Lu-PSMA-617 or observation and will receive SBRT to all metastatic lesions within 14 days, completed within 3 weeks. Patients will then receive either intravenous 177 Lu-PSMA-617 (7.4 GBq/6 weeks; 4 cycles), starting 7–21 days after SBRT, or undergo observation only. Additional SBRT for new lesions is allowed. ADT is allowed after a metastasis-free survival (MFS) event by CI confirmed by blinded independent review committee (BIRC). Safety follow-up will occur 42 days after the last 177 Lu-PSMA-617 dose and at the week 24 visit for the observational arm. Long-term follow-up for the 177 Lu-PSMA-617 arm will include safety assessments every ~32 weeks. The primary endpoint is MFS by CI as assessed by BIRC using RECIST v1.1, or death. To provide 90% power to detect a hazard ratio of 0.6, 187 MFS events are required. The key secondary endpoint is time to next hormonal therapy. Additional secondary endpoints include time to PSA progression, radiographic progression-free survival, symptomatic progression, patient-reported health-related quality of life, overall survival and safety.

Abstract Purpose: Two randomized clinical trials (STOMP and ORIOLE) demonstrated that stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) can prolong androgen-deprivation therapy–free survival or progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with metachronous oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC). Although most patients with omCSPC have a more modest delay in progression, a small subset achieves a durable response following SABR. We investigated the prognostic and predictive value of circulating prostate-specific membrane antigen-positive (PSMA+) extracellular vesicles (EV) and PSA in a biomarker correlative study using blood samples from three independent patient cohorts. Experimental Design: Plasma samples from 46 patients with omCSPC on the ORIOLE trial and 127 patients with omCSPC on the STOMP trial protocol treated with SABR were included in the study. Pre-SABR PSMA+EV levels (EV/mL) were measured by nanoscale flow cytometry. Kaplan–Meier curves and logistic regression models were used to determine the association of PSMA+EV and PSA levels with clinical outcomes. Results: In the pooled cohorts, the median biochemical PFS were 26.1 and 15.0 months (P = 0.005), and the median radiographic PFS were 36.0 and 25.0 months (P = 0.003) for PSMA+EV-low and -high groups, respectively. The combination of pre-SABR low levels of both PSMA+EV and PSA was associated with a lower risk of radiographic progression (HR, 0.34, 95% confidence interval, 0.18–0.58; P = 0.0002). In the ORIOLE cohort, which included both an SABR arm and an observation arm, low PSMA+EV was predictive of benefit from SABR (P = 0.012). Conclusions: PSMA+EV is a novel prognostic and predictive biomarker of radiographically occult tumor burden in omCSPC. PSMA+EV may inform clinical decisions about identifying patients who will achieve a durable benefit from consolidative SABR alone.

191 Background: Two randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that SABR can prolong time to progression in oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) patients. However, there is a need for predictive tools to identify patients who will benefit from SABR alone or with systemic therapy. We investigated the prognostic value of PSMA-positive extracellular vesicles (PSMA+EVs) in a blinded observational study using blood samples from three independent patient cohorts. Methods: We obtained plasma samples from 157 omCSPC patients treated with SABR from the ORIOLE cohort (N=30, JHU) and STOMP-like cohorts (N=80, UGhent; N=47, Iridium Net). Baseline PSMA+EV levels (EV/ml) were measured by nanoscale flow cytometry. Primary clinical endpoints were biochemical progression (bPFS) and radiographic progression (rPFS). Optimal cutoffs for PSA (ng/ml) and PSMA+EV (EVs/ml) were defined as the point with the most significant log-rank test split. Kaplan-Meier curves and univariate Cox regression models were used to determine the association of PSMA+EV levels with clinical outcomes. Results: Twenty percent of patients (N=157 total) were diagnosed with bone scan, 79% with PET imaging, and 1% with other modalities. Ninety-four percent of patients presented with ≤3 metastases on imaging. In the pooled STOMP-like cohorts, median bPFS was 27.9 and 18.0 months for PSMA+EV low and high groups, respectively (p=0.039). Median rPFS was 36.0 versus 27.0 months (p=0.029). In the ORIOLE cohort, median bPFS was 24.3 and 5.9 months in PSMA+EV low and high, respectively (p=0.021). Median rPFS was 36.0 versus 11.1 months (p=0.019). High baseline PSMA+EV levels were associated with higher risk of both biochemical and radiographic progression (Table). Combination of baseline PSA low and PSMA+EV low outperformed either biomarker alone and better predicted risk of disease progression after SABR. Conclusions: While prospective biomarker-guided trials are warranted, a PSMA+EV blood test can aid patient selection by identifying omCSPC patients who may have durable responses to SABR without ADT.

Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co‐primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported. The initial STOMP and ORIOLE trial reports suggested that metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) in oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) was associated with improved treatment outcomes. Here, we present long-term outcomes of MDT in omCSPC by pooling STOMP and ORIOLE and assess the ability of a high-risk mutational signature to risk stratify outcomes after MDT. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. High-risk mutations were defined as pathogenic somatic mutations within ATM, BRCA1/ 2, Rb1, or TP53. The median follow-up for the whole group was 52.5 months. Median PFS was prolonged with MDT compared with observation (pooled hazard ratio [HR], 0.44; 95% CI, 0.29 to 0.66; P value < .001), with the largest benefit of MDT in patients with a high-risk mutation (HR high-risk, 0.05; HR no high-risk, 0.42; P value for interaction: .12). Within the MDT cohort, the PFS was 13.4 months in those without a high-risk mutation, compared with 7.5 months in those with a high-risk mutation (HR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.25 to 1.11; P = .09). Long-term outcomes from the only two randomized trials in omCSPC suggest a sustained clinical benefit to MDT over observation. A high-risk mutational signature may help risk stratify treatment outcomes after MDT.

5025 Background: Prospective reports suggest metastasis directed therapy (MDT) in oligometastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) is associated with improved treatment outcomes. Here we present long term outcomes of the phase II STOMP and ORIOLE trials and assess the ability of a high-risk (HiRi) mutational signature to provide prognostic and predictive information regarding MDT response. Methods: Patients with omCSPC (< 3 lesions) enrolled on STOMP (n = 62) and ORIOLE (n = 54) randomized to MDT or observation were pooled. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) defined as either PSA or radiographic progression, initiation of androgen deprivation, or death. Secondary endpoint was radiographic PFS (rPFS) defined as radiographic progression or death. Both were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and stratified by treatment group. Next generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to identify a HiRi mutational signature defined as pathogenic mutations within ATM, BRCA1/2, Rb1, or TP53. Cox proportional hazards regressions were fit to calculate hazard ratios (HR) and assess the prognostic and predictive values of HiRi mutational status. Results: Median follow-up was 52.5 months. Median PFS was prolonged with MDT (11.9 months) compared to observation (5.9 months) with a pooled HR of 0.44 (95% CI, 0.29 – 0.66, p-value < 0.001). MDT was associated with PSA decrease in a majority of patients (84%) as compared to the observation group (41%). On NGS, the incidence of a pathogenic mutation in a HiRi gene was 24.3%. HiRi mutation was prognostic for PFS -- in those without a HiRi mutation median PFS was 11.9 months compared to 5.9 months in those with a HiRi mutation (HR of 1.74, p = 0.06). HiRi mutation was also prognostic for rPFS -- those without a high-risk mutation experienced median rPFS of 22.6 months compared to 10.0 months in those with a high-risk mutation (HR 2.62, p < 0.01). Tumors without a HiRi mutation treated with MDT experienced the longest PFS (13.4 months) while those with a HiRi randomized to observation experienced the shortest PFS (2.8 months). Stratifying by both treatment arms and HiRi status appeared to show a differential benefit to MDT, with those with HiRi mutations experiencing a larger relative magnitude of benefit to treatment: (HiRi mutation: HR of 0.05, p < 0.01; no HiRi mutation: HR of 0.42, p = 0.01; p interaction, 0.12) suggesting a HiRi mutational status can provide information regarding differential response to treatment. Conclusions: Long-term outcomes from the only two randomized trials in omCSPC suggest a sustained benefit to MDT over observation. A HiRi mutational signature appears prognostic for outcomes in omCSPC and those with HiRi might have a relatively larger magnitude of response to MDT. Future studies are needed to optimize patient selection. Clinical trial information: NCT02680587.
