Overall Survival and Immune Responses with Sipuleucel-T and Enzalutamide: STRIDE Study

Background: STRIDE (NCT01981122) is the first study comparing concurrent (con) vs sequential (seq) enzalutamide (enz) with sipuleucel-T (sip-T) in patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Pts were followed until death or for 3 years.

Methods: Fifty-two pts were randomized 1:1 to 3 sip-T infusions and enz started 2 wks before (n = 25, con) or 10 wks after (n = 27, seq) sip-T. Enz was continued for 52 wks or until disease progression (DP)/toxicity. Time to clinical outcomes was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. 

Results: Median age (years): con 66; seq 72 (p = 0.01). Baseline characteristics and laboratory values were similar between arms. K-M estimated median follow up: 40.2 months. Clinical trial information: NCT01981122. 

Conclusions: Long-term follow-up suggests sip-T+enz is well-tolerated with no new safety concerns. Though not powered for such, con vs seq rx did not result in differences in OS or DP; differences in PSA responses cannot be excluded. Larger studies could better evaluate the clinical impact of combining immunotherapy with hormonal agents.

NE, not estimable; PSA, prostate specific antigen *Clinically significant event or PSA progression Post-treatment (rx) antigen-specific cellular and humoral responses increased through wk 52 (p < 0.001). The seq arm resulted in greater magnitude of antibody titers; total response rates were similar between arms. Most common adverse events (AEs) were fatigue (50%), nausea (27%), back pain (19%), dizziness (19%), chills (17%). 15 pts developed grade 3–4 AE, 1 fatal (respiratory failure).
