About the Study
This study will examine how well an increased dose of testosterone treatment works for people with castration-resistant cancer (mCRPC) with an , CDK12, or genetic mutation. Participants will continue to receive the medication as long as their cancer doesn’t get worse and they do not experience severe side effects.
Side effects and vital signs will be recorded to examine the safety and tolerability of the therapy. Participants will receive a bone scan, , and blood test to determine if the cancer is advancing.
This Study is Open To:
Male assigned at birth, aged 18 years and older, who meet the following criteria:
- Veterans who can receive care within the VA medical system.
- Diagnosed with ,
- Ongoing treatment that lowers the levels of male hormones produced by the testicles, which includes medications like gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues or antagonists, or surgical removal of the testicles (orchiectomy)
- Have a genetic mutation in , CDK12, or gene
- Do not have severe symptoms related to your cancer
- Your cancer has progressed after using one of the newer hormone therapies for cancer, such as , , apalutamide, darolutamide, etc.

- Are currently receiving active therapy
- Have small cell lung cancer
- Have cancer that spread to the brain or liver
- Have viral hepatitis or chronic liver disease
- Have significant heart disease
- Have pain related to their cancer and are using opioids, such as oxycodone, hydrocodone (Vicodin), morphine, methadone or fentanyl
- Require a catheter to urinate
- Have dementia or a mental disorder that will limit your ability to participate in the study
