F!!ELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the treatment of cancers, such as prostate cancer (e.g., castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC)). More specifically, the invention concerns the treatment of human patients having a prostate cancer, such as metastatic CRPC (mCRPC) or locally confined, inoperable CRPC, by administering a combination of a PD-1 axis binding antagonist (e.g. , an anti-PD-L1 antibody, e.g. , atezolizumab) and an antiandrogen (e.g., enzalutamide). BACKGROUND Cancers are characterized by the uncontrolled growth of ceil subpopulations. Cancers are the leading cause of death in the developed world and the second leading cause of death in developing countries, with over 4 million new cancer cases diagnosed and over eight million cancer deaths occurring each year. The National Cancer Institute has estimated that greater than half a million Americans will die of cancer in 2Q1 6 , accounting for nearly one out of every four deaths in the country. As the elderly population has grown, the incidence of cancer has concurrently risen, as the probability of developing cancer is more than two-fold higher after the age of seventy. Cancer care thus represents a significant and ever-increasing societal burden. With approximately 1.1 million newly diagnosed cases and more than 3 ,00 deaths each year worldwide, prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and the second leading cause of death in men in the Western world. The incidence rates are highest in developed regions, including North America and Australia. Whereas most men with localized prostate cancer are cured with treatment, men with recurrent or newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer suffer significant morbidity and mortality. For patients who have recurrent prostate cancer following localized treatment and for those patients identified with de novo metastatic prostate cancer, the primary treatment is androgen deprivation therapy (ADT); however, up to one-third of prostate cancer patients will progress despite reduction in testosterone levels to castrate levels (< 50 ng/dL) through surgical or medical castration. The majority of these men with castration- resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), and in particular metastatic CRPC (mCRPC), will experience deterioration in quality of life, disability, and ultimately die of their disease. The median life expectancy in patients diagnosed with mCRPC is less than three years, and less than one year in patients who have failed two prior lines of therapy. Given the limitations of current treatments available for patients with prostate cancer (e.g., mCRPC), and particularly for prostate cancer (e.g. , mCRPC) patients who have previously failed treatment with an androgen synthesis inhibitor and have faiied , are ineiigibie for, or refused a taxane regimen, there remains an unmet need in the field for improved and tolerable treatment options for prostate cancer (e.g. , mCRPC). SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to methods of treating a subject having cancer (e.g. , prostate cancer, e.g. , castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), e.g., metastatic CRPC (mCRPC) or locally confined, inoperable CRPC) by administering a combination of a PD-1 axis binding antagonist (e.g ., an anti-PD-L1 antibody, e.g. , atezolizumab) and an antiandrogen (e.g., enzalutamide). In one aspect, the invention features a method of treating a subject having a prostate cancer (e.g. , CRPC) comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of an anti-PD-L1 antibody and an antiandrogen in one or more dosing cycles. in some embodiments of the above aspect, the antiandrogen is an androgen receptor (AR) antagonist. In some embodiments, the AR antagonist is a non-steroidal AR antagonist. In some embodiments, the non-steroidal AR antagonist is enzalutamide. In some embodiments, the method comprises administering enzalutamide at a dose of between about 80mg to about 240 g. In some embodiments, the method comprises administering enzalutamide at a dose of about 1 Q mg. In some embodiments, the method comprises administering enzalutamide at a dose of about 160 mg on each day of the one or more dosing cycles. n some embodiments of the above aspect, the anti-PD-L1 antibody inhibits the binding of PD-L1 to PD- , the binding of PD-L1 to B7-1 , or the binding of PD-L1 to both PD-1 and B7-1 . In some embodiments, the anti-PD-L1 antibody is selected from the group consisting of atezolizumab (MPDL3280A), YW243.55.S70, SB001071 8C, MDX-1 105, and MEDI4736. in some embodiments, the anti-PD-L1 antibody comprises the following hypervariable regions (HVRs): (a) an HVR-H1 sequence of GFTFSDSWIH (SEQ D NO: 1) , (b) an HVR-H2 sequence of AW!SPYGGSTYYADSVKG (SEQ ID NO: 2) , (c) an HVR-H3 sequence of RHWPGGFDY (SEQ D NO: 3) , (d) an HVR-L1 sequence of RASQDVSTAVA (SEQ D NO: 4), (e) an HVR-L2 sequence of SASFLYS (SEQ D NO: 5) , and (f) an HVR-L3 sequence of QQYLYHPAT (SEQ D NO: 6). n some embodiments, the anti-PD-L1 antibody comprises: (a) a heavy chain variable (VH) domain comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ D NO: 7 , (b) a light chain variable (VL) domain comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ D NO: 8 , or (c) a VH domain as in (a) and a VL domain as in (b). In some embodiments, the anti-PD-L1 antibody comprises: (a) a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ D NO: 7 , (b) a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 8 , or (c) a VH domain as in (a) and a VL domain as in (b).

Moreover, it disproportionately affects the men of African origin, who exhibit significantly greater incidence and mortality as compared to the men of European origin. Since androgens play an important role in the growth of normal prostate and prostate tumors, targeting of androgen signaling has remained a mainstay for the treatment of aggressive prostate cancer. Over the years, multiple approaches have been evaluated to effectively target the androgen signaling pathway that include direct targeting of the androgens, androgen receptor (AR), AR co-regulators or other alternate mechanisms that impact the outcome of androgen signaling.

    PRODUCT INFORMATION Orteronel Item No. 24191 CAS Registry No.: 566939-85-3 Formal Name: 6-[(7S)-6,7-dihydro-7-hydroxy- 5H-pyrrolo[1,2-c]imidazol-7-yl]-N- O methyl-2-naphthalenecarboxamide Synonym: TAK-700 N MF: C H N O 18 17 3 2 H OH N FW: 307.3 Purity: ≥98% N UV/Vis.: λmax: 237, 280 nm Supplied as: A crystalline solid Storage: -20°C Stability: ≥2 years Information represents the product specifications. Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Orteronel is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the orteronel in the solvent of choice. Orteronel is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of orteronel in ethanol is approximately 0.2 mg/ml and approximately 10 mg/ml in DMSO and DMF. Description Orteronel is a non-steroidal inhibitor of the 17,20-lyase activity of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP17A1 (IC50s = 48 and 19 nM for the rat and human enzyme, respectively), which is the CYP17A1 activity that converts progestogens into androgens.1 Orteronel is selective for the 17,20-lyase activity of CYP17A1 over its 11-hydroxylase activity and CYP3A4 (IC50s = >1,000 and >10,000 nM, respectively). It decreases adrenocorticotropic hormone-induced production of DHEA, androstenedione, cortisol, and aldosterone in monkey adrenal cells (IC50s = 110, 130, 310, and 4,400 nmol/L, respectively) and inhibits DHEA production in NCI-H295R human adrenocortical tumor cells.2 A single oral dose of orteronel (0.3-10 mg/kg) dose-dependently decreases DHEA, cortisol, and testosterone levels in the plasma of intact cynomolgus monkeys for at least 10 hours, and chronic dosing of 15 mg/kg twice daily suppresses levels for up to seven days of treatment.
