Title: A Phase Ib/II Study of Niraparib Combination Therapies for the Treatment of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) Sponsor: Janssen Research and Development PI: W. Kevin Kelly, DO Primary Objectives: Part 1 Objectives
To evaluate the tolerability of niraparib combination therapies for the treatment of mCRPC

Treatment: The study will enroll patients with mCRPC who are either BM+ (cohort 1a) or BM- (cohort 1b) for DNA-repair anomalies based on the sponsor’s blood-based assay. For Part 1, two doses of JNJ-63723283 will be explored. At least 6 evaluable subjects will be treated with niraparib 200 mg orally once daily in combination with JNJ-63723283 240 mg IV once every 2 weeks (does regimen 1) and at least 6 evaluable subjects will be treated with niraparib 200 mg orally once daily in combination with JNJ-63723283 480 mg IV once every 4 weeks (does regimen 2). These 2 dose regimens will be enrolled simultaneously
