Efficacy and safety of mevrometostat (M) in combination with enzalutamide (E) in patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): Data from a phase 1 study.
Abstract
e17043 Background: M is a potent and selective inhibitor of enhancer of zeste homolog 2. M 1250 mg twice daily (BID) on an empty stomach + E + androgen deprivation therapy showed improved outcomes vs E alone in pts with mCRPC, with a manageable adverse event (AE) profile, in the randomized, dose-expansion part of a phase 1 study (NCT03460977). We report efficacy and safety data from two pt cohorts (2A and 2C) who received M 875 mg BID with food + E. Methods: Pts with mCRPC who received prior abiraterone and/or E (2A) or prior abiraterone (2C), ≤1 prior chemotherapy in any setting, with evidence of progression per modified Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 criteria were included. Primary endpoints were radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) per investigator assessment and safety. Secondary endpoints included objective response (OR) by RECIST 1.1 (for pts with measurable disease at baseline) and decline in prostate-specific antigen of ≥50% from baseline (PSA 50 ). Results: As of September 1, 2025, 29 pts had received M 875 mg BID with food + E (2A, n = 15; 2C, n = 14). Median (range) age was 74 (61–86) years in 2A and 73 (55–83) years in 2C. In 2A, 9 pts (60.0%) had received abiraterone and 9 pts (60%) had received E; in 2C, 14 pts (100%) received prior abiraterone and were E naive. Efficacy and safety outcomes for 2A and 2C are shown (Table). Six confirmed events (5 progressive disease,1 death) were observed in 2A and 4 (all progressive disease) in 2C; median (90% confidence interval [CI]) rPFS was 14.3 (2.0, not estimable [NE]) months in 2A and NE (6.2, NE) months in 2C. Confirmed PSA 50 was observed in 6 pts (40.0%; 95% CI 16.3, 67.7) in 2A and 6 pts (42.9%; 95% CI 17.7, 71.1) in 2C. In pts with measurable disease at baseline (2A, n = 4; 2C, n = 6), confirmed OR rate (95% CI) was 25.0% (0.6, 80.6; 1 partial response) in 2A and 16.7% (0.4, 64.1; 1 partial response) in 2C. For 2A+2C combined, most common treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) were diarrhea (48.3%), thrombocytopenia (48.3%), and decreased appetite (44.8%). Grade ≥3 TEAEs were observed in 41.3% pts (most common: thrombocytopenia, anemia, asthenic conditions, and hypokalemia). Grade ≥3 TEAEs considered related to M were reported in 31.0% pts. There were no treatment-related deaths. Conclusions: M 875 mg BID with food + E shows promising outcomes in pts with mCRPC and a manageable AE profile. Further investigation of M + E in pts with mCRPC is warranted.
