Phase Ib trial of reformulated niclosamide with abiraterone/prednisone in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer

Abstract Niclosamide has preclinical activity against a wide range of cancers. In prostate cancer, it inhibits androgen receptor variant 7 and synergizes with abiraterone. The approved niclosamide formulation has poor oral bioavailability. The primary objective of this phase Ib trial was to identify...

Eligible patients had progressing CRPC, adequate end-organ function, and no prior treatment with abiraterone or ketoconazole.
