Sex-Mismatched Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation for Men With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
Prostate Cancer

About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Prostate Cancer focused on measuring Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer, Bone Marrow Transplantation
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Performance status ≤1
- Age ≥18 years and ≤ 75 years old
- Histologically-confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate
- Treated with continuous androgen ablative therapy (either surgical castration or LHRH agonist/antagonist) with documented castrate level of serum testosterone (<50 ng/dl)
- Metastatic disease radiographically documented by CT or bone scan
- Patient must be HLA typed at high resolution using DNA based typing at the following loci: HLA-A, -B, -C, and DRB1
- Patient must have available one or more potential first (biologic mother, sister, half-sister, or daughter) or second-degree related female donor. Mothers and daughters have a 100% chance of being haploidentical matches, sisters a 75% chance of being matched or haploidentical, and second degree relatives have a 50% chance of being haploidentical matches. The donor and recipient must be HLA identical for at least one antigen at HLA-A, -B, -C and HLA-DRB1.
- Screening PSA must be ≥ 1.0 ng/mL.
- Prior therapy with one second line hormonal therapy is allowed (i.e. bicalutamide, nilutamide, flutamide, ketoconazole, abiraterone, enzalutamide, ARN-509).
- Prior docetaxel (≤ 6 cycles) as first line therapy
- Cardiac ejection fraction at rest must be ≥ 40%
- Acceptable liver function: Bilirubin < 2.5 mg/dL (unless due to Gilbert's disease, AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) < 5 times upper limit of normal.
- Acceptable renal function: Serum creatinine within normal range.
- Pulmonary function: DLCO (corrected for hemoglobin), FEV1 and FVC >50% predicted.
- At least 4 wks since prior radiation or surgery with full recovery (no persistent toxicity ≥ Grade 1)
- Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior treatment with Sipuleucel-T, radium-223, strontium-89, or samarium-153
- Prior chemotherapy (docetaxel, cabazitaxel) for castrate resistant prostate cancer
- Evidence of serious and/or unstable pre-existing medical, psychiatric or other condition (including laboratory abnormalities) that could interfere with patient safety or provision of informed consent to participate in this study
- Active uncontrolled infection, including known history of HIV/AIDS or hepatitis B or C.
- Any psychological, familial, sociological, or geographical condition that could potentially interfere with compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Bone marrow transplantation
Bone marrow transplantation followed by Cytoxan and testosterone Day -6 to -1: Subjects will be treated with a standard non-myeloablative conditioning regimen Day 0: subjects will be infused with non-T-cell depleted bone marrow from a related female donor. Subjects will receive GVHD prophylaxis consisting of: Day +3 and +4: Cytoxan (Cy) 50mg/kg IV Day +5 through Day +180: tacrolimus (IV or PO) beginning [dose adjusted to maintain trough level of 5-15 ng/mL] Day +5 through Day +35: Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) 15 mg/kg PO TID, with a maximum dose of 1g TID. Day +5: filgrastim (G-CSF) 5 mcg/kg/day, continued until ANC ≥ 1500/mm3. Day +60, +90, and +120: testosterone cypionate 400 mg IM every 30 days x 3 doses Subjects will be maintained on continuous LHRH agonist/antagonist therapy (if not previously surgically castrated). Subjects who achieve biochemical CR will stop LHRH agonist/antagonist treatmentat day 180.
