STAMPEDE2

Studying Treatments in patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and androgen receptor signalling inhibitors (ARSI) for Metastatic Prostate Cancer: Evaluation of Drug and radiation Efficacy: A 2nd multi-arm multi-stage randomised controlled trial (STAMPEDE2).

A randomised controlled platform trial testing treatments in metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer.

What is this study about?

STAMPEDE2 is a trial testing new treatments in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic prostate cancer). It tests these treatments when the cancer is hormone-sensitive, which means that it is responsive to treatment with hormone therapy. STAMPEDE2 is a set of three randomised controlled trials (called comparisons) testing the addition of three new treatments to the standard-of-care.

  • Treatment S: Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR), a type of radiotherapy.
  • Treatment P: 177Lu-PSMA-617, a nuclear medicine therapy.
  • Treatment N: Nira-AA+P, an oral drug therapy.

The primary objectives of each comparison are to test whether cancer outcomes can be improved by the addition of the research treatments to standard-of-care in men with metastatic prostate cancer and starting long-term androgen deprivation therapy.
