Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Response will be measured according to RECIST version 1.1, the ORR is defined as the sum of the complete remissions plus partial responses. The best response will be used in each patient.
Duration of Response (DoR)
Response will be measured according to RECIST version 1.1, the DoR is defined as the time from first tumor assessment at which the overall response was recorded as partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) that is subsequently confirmed until documented progressive disease (PD) or death form any cause, whichever occurs first.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Response will be measured according to RECIST version 1.1, the PFS is defined as the time from study enrolment until date of first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.Every 12 weeks a CT/MRI scan will be made to asses the progression free survival until PD.
Clinical benefit rate (CBR)
Response will be measured according to RECIST version 1.1, the CBR is defined as the confirmed CR or PR at any time or stable disease (SD) of at least 6 months. Every 12 weeks a CT/MRI scan will be made to asses the clinical benefit rate until PD.
Overall survival (OS)
The OS is defined as the time from study enrolment to the date of death to any cause.
Quality of Life (QoL) based on the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire
Quality of Life (QoL) based on the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. Participants are asked to fill in the questionnaires in week 0 (before start of treatment, baseline), every 12 weeks, and at PD.
Quality of Life (QoL) based on the EORTC QLQ-H&N43 questionnaire
Quality of Life (QoL) based on the EORTC QLQ-H&N43 questionnaire. Participants are asked to fill in the questionnaires in week 0 (before start of treatment, baseline), every 12 weeks, and at PD.

Pain level assessed by the VAS (visual analog scale) questionnaire
Scale range 0-10, in which a higher score represents more pain. Participants are asked to fill in the questionnaires in week 0 (before start of treatment, baseline), every 12 weeks, and at PD.
Adverse Events according to CTCAE v5.0
Adverse events will be recorded using International Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0, the investigator will assess whether those events are drug related. Every OPD visit (every 3 months until PD)
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) levels
ctDNA levels will be assessed to evaluate whether treatment response and disease progression can be predicted. Baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and at PD.
mRNA expression levels of AR and AR splice variants
mRNA expression of AR and AR splice variants on baseline and post-treatment tumor tissue samples to evaluate whether treatment response and disease progression can be predicted. Pre-treatment and post-treatment (i.e. PD)
mRNA expression levels of SRD5A1/SRD5A2
mRNA expression of SRD5A1/SRD5A2 on baseline and post-treatment tumor tissue samples to evaluate whether treatment response and disease progression can be predicted. Pre-treatment and post-treatment (i.e. PD)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Phase 2 clinical trial on the addition of dutasteride to combined androgen blockade (CAB) therapy in recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) patients. The study will include two cohorts of patients: Cohort A, which comprises ADT-naïve patients, and Cohort B, which comprises ADT-resistant patients.
Detailed Description
A prospective, randomized controlled, single-institution, phase II clinical trial to assess the objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DoR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), toxicity, quality of life (QoL), and expression of molecular targets of patients with R/M SDC treated with either combined androgen blockade (CAB; goserelin + bicalutamide) or CAB + dutasteride, Participants in Cohort A will be randomized 1:1 at the study entry to receive CAB (goserelin 10.8 mg/3months + bicalutamide 50 mg/once daily) or CAB + dutasteride (0.5 mg/once daily). Participants will receive treatment until until progressive disease, intolerable toxicity, or investigator and/or patient decision to withdraw.

Parallel Assignment
Model Description
Patients will be included into two cohorts based on their previous treatments, either ADT-naïve (cohort A) or ADT-resistant patients (cohort B). In cohort A, the randomization will result in the allocation of the control arm (goserelin and bicalutamide) and experimental arm (goserelin, bicalutamide, and dutasteride) in a 1:1 ratio. In cohort B, patients ADT-resistant will be enrolled receiving similar therapy to the experimental arm, i.e. goserelin, bicalutamide, and dutasteride.
