The purpose of this study is to: a) establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of niraparib combination therapies (Combinations 1 and 2) and b) to determine the relative bioavailability of niraparib and abiraterone acetate (AA) in combination (Combination 3) in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
Phase 2 trials begin testing efficacy in a larger patient group (100–300). This is often where biotech binary events occur — positive Phase 2 data can significantly advance a company's pipeline narrative, while failures can be terminal for a program.
Enrollment is complete. The trial is in its follow-up or data collection phase — a readout may occur on or near the primary completion date.
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company C (51/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
