Overview

This investigational combination regimen consists of the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab, the androgen receptor antagonist darolutamide, and the GnRH agonist leuprolide. It is currently being evaluated in a Phase II clinical trial (NCT07027124) led by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai for the treatment of high-risk localized prostate cancer. The protocol utilizes a neoadjuvant approach followed by radical prostatectomy and adjuvant pembrolizumab. Patients are molecularly stratified using the Decipher genomic assay to identify those with high-risk genomic characteristics (GC > 0.6, high AR activity, and Luminal B subtype) who are most likely to benefit from this intensive chemo-hormonal-immunotherapy approach. Pembrolizumab acts as an immune checkpoint inhibitor to enhance T-cell response, while darolutamide and leuprolide provide potent androgen deprivation to suppress tumor growth.
