Summary

This trial will look at the effects of cabozantinib on a molecularly-selected group of patients with CRPC.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that's progressing. They must have a certain level of organ function, agree to biopsies, and not have had specific treatments recently. Participants need evidence of gene changes targeted by cabozantinib and must use contraception if fertile.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of cabozantinib on mCRPC patients selected based on molecular criteria like gene amplification or mutations. It aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth in these specifically chosen patients.
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed here, common side effects from drugs like cabozantinib may include nausea, fatigue, high blood pressure, hand-foot syndrome (redness and pain in hands/feet), diarrhea, decreased appetite, weight loss and possibly liver issues.
