Study summary

This study was supposed to have assessed the safety and preliminary antitumor activity of CFG920, a new CYP17 inhibitor in castration resistant prostate cancer patients who are abiraterone naive or abiraterone resistant.

The study was terminated after Phase I (dose escalation phase) and Phase II part of the study was not initiated. Novartis voluntarily terminated this study and hence stopped further enrollment of patients into this study. As the decision to terminate the study was not due to any safety issues, the patients enrolled in the study by the time of this decision were allowed to continue with treatment per the protocol.

    Time frame: 18 months

  10. Best PSA response at any time during the study

    Phase ll only

    Time frame: 18 months
