  • Research summary

    This study is divided in to 2 parts. The first part is a phase 1 study assessing safety and tolerability (incidence and severity of adverse events) of the combination of AT13387 and Abiraterone Acetate and to select the most promising treatment regimen for the combination in subjects with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) who are no longer responding to treatment with abiraterone acetate alone, based on the overall assessment of safety and antitumor activity. The second part is a phase 2 study, to assess and compare the antitumor activity between single-agent AT13387 and the combination of AT13387 plus abiraterone acetate in subjects who are no longer responding to treatment with abiraterone acetate alone.
