    • Creatinine ≤ ULN or Creatinine Clearance (CrCl) ≥ 60 ml/min

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior treatment with systemic agents or radiation treatment for the primary cancer.
  • Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks prior to study treatment, and must have fully recovered from any such procedure.
  • Personal history of any of the following conditions: syncope of cardiovascular etiology, ventricular arrhythmia of pathological origin (including, but not limited to, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation), or sudden cardiac arrest.
  • Angina, myocardial infarction (MI), symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack (TIA), arterial embolism, pulmonary embolism, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) within 6 months prior to study treatment.

  • Known history of AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)-defining illness.
  • Patients must be surgically sterile or must agree to use effective contraception during the study treatment (including temporary breaks from treatment), and for at least 180 days after stopping last dose of Abemaciclib.
  • Other severe and/or uncontrolled acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that, in the judgment of the investigator, may increase the risk associated with study participation or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and would make the patient inappropriate for this study (for example, interstitial lung disease, severe dyspnea at rest or requiring oxygen therapy, severe renal impairment [e.g. estimated creatinine clearance <30ml/min], history of major surgical resection involving the stomach or small bowel, or preexisting Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis or a preexisting chronic condition resulting in baseline Grade 2 or higher diarrhea.)
  • Secondary malignancy requiring active treatment. Past history of malignancy other than prostate cancer treated with curative intent and not requiring additional treatment may be eligible after discussion with PI.
  • Patients with active autoimmune disease and history of inflammatory bowel disease. Brachytherapy boost will not be permitted.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This Phase II study is designed to study the clinical and radiologic response, as well as, safety and tolerability of abemaciclib in combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with localized high-risk or locally advanced prostate cancer who are eligible for definitive radiation therapy (RT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).
Detailed Description
A similar hormone-driven cancer akin to breast cancers is prostate cancer. These tumors are driven by androgen receptor signaling, and CDK4/6 has also been found to be a bona fide target pre-clinically for advanced prostate cancer cell models. Moreover, CDK4/6 inhibition can act as a radiation sensitizer through its effects on the DNA damage response and interactions with cell cycle pathway proteins. For example, it has been found that expression of DNA repair proteins can be regulated by E2F, a transcription factor necessary for the G1 to S phase transition. Also, cyclin D1 has been found to exert a direct role in DNA repair. Lastly, CDK4/6 inhibition has been found to modulate the DNA damage response. These data support the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors as a modulator of DNA damage to enhance sensitivity to radiation. Given the role of CDK4/6 in tumor resistance to endocrine therapy, in activation of the DNA damage response, and in promoting radiation resistance, we hypothesize that the targeting of CDK4/6 with abemaciclib will enhance the cytotoxicity in combination with blockade of the androgen receptor pathway. Therefore, we propose a pilot phase II investigator initiated trial in patients with high-risk prostate cancer testing the tolerability and toxicity of abemaciclib in combination with ADT. Patients will receive ADT for 2 years and will start 3 months before radiation therapy. Abemaciclib will start with initiation of ADT and pause 2 weeks prior to start of radiation therapy. Abemaciclib will resume with the first ADT administration post-radiation, which is about 1 month post radiation therapy. Abemaciclib and ADT will continue for a total ADT period of 24 months. Patients will receive study treatment until development of toxicity or disease progression on treatment or any reasons of withdrawal or a maximum of 24 months of therapy with ADT. Patients are seen every 4 weeks with laboratory evaluation. For toxicity or adverse events, patients will undergo labs, physical examination and grades of toxicities will be determined using NCI CTCAE version 4.03.
