Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The phase 2 study will recruit men with confirmed metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer who have recently undergone a PSMA PET scan. Eligible participants will be assigned to either:

- Cohort A: Dasatinib 100mg once daily orally for 14 Days
- Cohort B: Dasatinib 100mg once daily and Darolumatide 600 mg twice daily orally for 14 Days

Participants can only be assigned to Cohort B once all available slots to Cohort A are filled and reviewed by investigators.

After 7 days of treatment, participants will be assessed by an investigator. After 14 (+/- 2 days) of treatment the participant will be re-imaged with a PSMA PET scan. Participants will be asked to maintain a record of drug dosing. A safety visit is scheduled at 30 days post treatment.

2. Previous dasatinib for prostate cancer or other condition, eg CLL
3. Allergy to dasatinib or darolutamide
4. Use of drugs that interact with interact pharmacologically with dasatinib within 1 week of study entry eg Use of CYP3A4 inducers (e.g. dexamethasone, phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, phenobarbital or St John’s Wort) and use of CYP3A4 substrates with narrow therapeutic index (e.g. astemizole, terfenadine, cisapride, pimozide, quinidine, bepridil or ergot analogues.

8. Subjects may not have any of the following: Clinical evidence of uncontrolled heart failure, myocardial infarction, or angina within the previous 6 months; prolonged QT interval Fridericia's (QTcF) > 450msec; history of unstable ventricular arrhythmias (ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or torsades de pointes); concomitant use of drugs known to cause torsades de pointes [quinidine, procainamide, disopyramide, amiodarone, sotalol, ibutilide, dofetilide, erythromycins, clarithromycin, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, mesoridazine,thioridazine, pimozide, cisapride, bepridil, droperidol, methadone, arsenic, chloroquine, domperidone, halofantrine, levomethadyl,pentamidine, sparfloxacin, lidoflazine] (these agents must have been discontinued at least 7 days prior to starting dasatinib)
9.

Statistical methods / analysis
The sample size of 22 patients is pragmatic rather than definitive. Based on our previous study findings(*), eleven patients will be recruited to each of two arms (dasatinib +/- Darolutamide).

Furthermore, this may allow a comparison between the arms with a 10% two-sided significance level and 80% power given a mean increase of 30% greater SUVmax mean increase with the combination with an expected SD of 20%. Additionally, descriptive statistics will be used to examine the changes in the other whole-body quantitative PET parameters (SUVmax per lesion, SUVmax, total molecular volume, SUVmean, total PSMA volume)
