About This Aggressive Variant Prostate Carcinoma Study in Milwaukee

This is a multi-center single arm phase II study to evaluate the antitumor activity of zanzalintinib 60mg orally (PO) once daily in subjects with AVPC. Zanzalintinib may continue until radiographic progression (or beyond), intolerable adverse events, or withdrawal of consent. As long as the subject is clinically stable, subjects may receive study treatment even after radiographic progression, until they are no longer clinically benefiting from the study treatment in the opinion of the treating Investigator, or they need subsequent systemic anticancer treatment or other urgent tumor directed medical intervention to prevent life-threatening complications. This study will use a 2-stage group-sequential design for enrollment. The first stage will consist of enrolling 15 subjects. No more than 5 of the first 15 subjects can have received chemotherapy in the castrate- resistant setting.

Histological or cytologically proven prostate cancer

Must have had evidence of metastatic disease (AJCC v.8 M1 disease) based on conventional CT/MRI and/or bone scan. This will be defined as:

Bone metastases detected by CT, radionuclide 99Tc- methylene bisphosphonate bone scan, or MRI as defined by PCWG3 criteria, OR

Non-pelvic lymph node metastases (measurable lymph nodes above the aortic bifurcation; lymph nodes are measurable if the short axis diameter is ≥15 mm) detected on CT or MRI as defined by RECIST version 1.1. Subjects with regional lymph node metastases only (N1, below the aortic bifurcation) will not be eligible for the study; OR

Visceral or soft tissue metastases detected on CT or MRI as defined by RECIST version 1.1. Soft tissue/visceral lesions are measurable if the long axis diameter is ≥10 mm.

Bilateral orchiectomy or ongoing androgen deprivation therapy with a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist/antagonist (surgical or medical castration), with serum testosterone \< 50 ng/ dL (\< 1.73 nmol/L) at screening.
