What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and optimal dosing regimen of two investigational drugs, JNJ-87189401 and JNJ-78278343, in patients with advanced prostate cancer. The trial consists of two parts: the first part focuses on dose escalation to determine the recommended phase 2 regimen, while the second part involves dose expansion to further assess safety. Participants must have metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and meet specific eligibility criteria, including prior androgen deprivation therapy.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have undergone prior androgen deprivation therapy.

Not a fit: Patients with small cell carcinoma or those who have not received prior androgen deprivation therapy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced prostate cancer.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar combination therapies in advanced prostate cancer, indicating potential for success.
