About this study

Official title: A Feasibility Study To Determine T-cell Responses To Neoantigens Following Treatment With Ipilimumab In Men With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Carcinoma

The goal of this clinical research study is to study the impact of ipilimumab on the immune system of patients currently receiving hormone therapy. The safety of these drug combinations will also be studied.

This is an investigational study. Ipilimumab is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of melanoma. Its use to treat prostate cancer is investigational.

Up to 30 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Read the detailed description

Study Drug Administration:

If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will receive ipilimumab by vein over about 90 minutes at Weeks 1, 4, 7, and 10. Your blood pressure will be measured every 30 minutes during the infusion, as well as an hour after you are finished receiving the study drug.

You will continue to receive your current hormone therapy as scheduled.

You will be given standard drugs (such as steroids) to help decrease severe side effects. You may ask the study staff for information about how the drugs are given and their risks.

Study Visits:

You will have a study visit before each dose of ipilimumab, then every 4 weeks for a total of 3 visits after the last dose of ipilimumab. At each of these visits, the following tests and procedures will be performed:

  • You will have a physical exam.
  • Blood (about 3 tablespoons) and urine will be collected for routine tests. This blood will also be used and to measure your protein, PSA levels.
  • Blood (up to 7 tablespoons) and urine will be collected to test for biomarkers. (Weeks 7, 14, and 22 only)
  • Blood (about 1½ teaspoons) will be drawn to check your testosterone level. (Week 10 only)
  • Blood (up to 10 tablespoons) will be drawn to test your immune system. You will sign a separate consent form for this blood draw.

At Weeks 14 and 22, the following tests and procedures will be performed to check the status of the disease:

  • You may have a chest x-ray.
  • You will have CT scans or MRIs of the abdomen, pelvis. If the doctor thinks it is needed, you will also have a CT scan of the chest. If a CT scan of the chest is done, a chest x-ray is not required.
  • You will have a bone scan.

If the study doctor thinks it is needed, you may have additional bone scans or CT scans or MRIs of the abdomen, pelvis, or chest to check the status of the disease.

Length of Study:

You may receive the study drug for up to 10 weeks. You will remain on study (receiving your standard hormone therapy) for up to a total of 22 weeks. You will be taken off study treatment if you have intolerable side effects, if the disease gets worse, or if you are unable to follow study directions. If you develop certain side effects or have certain side effects for a long period of time, you may be taken off study. The study doctor will let you know if you need to be taken off study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Impact of Ipilimumab on T Cell Responses to prostate cancer neoantigens in both primary tumor and metastatic sites in men with metastatic CRPC

    T-cell response to neoantigens defined as: At least a 2-fold increase compared to the response seen against irrelevant control targets, and activating at least 0.1% of cells tested, or at least a 2-fold increase compared to baseline.

    Measured: 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Ipilimumab in people with Prostate Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Impact of Ipilimumab on T Cell Responses to prostate cancer neoantigens in both primary tumor and metastatic sites in men with metastatic CRPC (time frame: 10 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 May 2024.
