Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include males aged 18 and older with confirmed metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have progressed after prior anti-androgen and taxane therapies.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have not received prior anti-androgen therapies or those with early-stage prostate cancer may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a first-in-human, Phase 1, open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of JANX007 in adults diagnosed with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Participants will receive JANX007 and Darolutamide, with the study focusing on those who have previously undergone specific anti-androgen and taxane therapies. The trial aims to gather essential data on how well the treatment works and its effects on patients.

Why it matters

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

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches in treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, indicating potential for success.

* For Monotherapy Part d: More than 1 prior line of therapy for mCRPC or prior receipt of any treatment other than an anti-androgen therapy and PARP inhibitor for mCRPC or prior receipt of a taxane in the mCRPC setting
* For Combination expansion: More than 1 prior line of therapy for mCRPC or prior receipt of any treatment other than a taxane for mCRPC or prior receipt of Darolutamide or prior receipt of a taxane for HSPC
