Trial Purpose

Keynote 365 is a phase 1B/2 study to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) combination therapy in patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Currently enrolling cohorts are*:

Treatment emergent neuroendocrine carcinoma (t-NE) cohorts

  • Cohort I
    • Arm 1 pembrolizumab+carboplatin+etoposide
    • Arm 2 carboplatin+etoposide.

Entrance criteria for Cohort I:

  • Prior androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for metastatic prostate cancer
  • < 2 chemotherapies for mCRPC
  • < 2 second generation hormonal therapies for mCRPC
  • No prior treatment for prostate cancer with platinum-containing drugs

Adenocarcinoma cohort:

  • Cohort J
    • Arm J1 belzutifan
    • Arm J2 pembrolizumab + belzutifan (Arm J2 is not currently enrolling)

Entrance criteria for Cohort J:

  • Prior docetaxel for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC)
  • < 1 other chemotherapy for mCRPC
  • < 2 second generation hormonal therapies

Additional criteria apply and only an HCP can determine if you are eligible.

Primary objectives :

  1. Safety and tolerability of pembrolizumab combination therapies to estimate the PSA response rate for each combination cohort
  2. Evaluate the Objective Response Rate (ORR) for each cohort based on RECIST 1.1 by Blinded Independent Review

About the trial

Trial phase Icon Current trial phase

Trial Phase 1

Investigational medication is tested for safety on a relatively small group of 20 to 100 volunteers who are usually healthy, but not always. Phase 1 trials may happen in a doctor’s office or a hospital.

Trial Phase 2

In Phase 2 trials, researchers try to find out if a treatment works in about 100 to 500 participants – usually people who have the health condition the treatment is intended to treat. In vaccine trials, the participants are usually healthy. Phase 2 trials may happen in a doctor’s office, a clinic, or a hospital.
