Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Life expectancy ≥ 10 years.
  • Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≤ 15ng/mL.
  • A histologically proven, clinically significant lesion visible on mpMRI (magnetic resonance imaging) that is accessible to PRX302 transperineal injection.
  • Radiological stage T1-T2 N0 Mx/M0 disease.
  • Targeted prostate biopsy within 6 months prior to dosing, with a clinically significant lesion correlating with an mpMRI visible lesion.

Who cannot join

  • Previous radiation therapy to the pelvis.
  • Androgen suppression or anti-androgen therapy within the 12 months prior to dosing, for prostate cancer.
  • Use of 5-alpha reductase inhibitor within the 3 months prior to dosing.
  • Evidence of metastatic disease or nodal disease outside the prostate on bone scan or cross-sectional imaging.
  • Inability to tolerate transrectal ultrasound (TRUS).
  • Known allergy to latex or gadolinium (Gd).
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Prior rectal surgery preventing insertion of the TRUS probe.
  • Any previous ablative procedures performed on the prostate, e.g., electroporation, radiofrequency ablation, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), cryosurgery, photochemical, thermal or microwave therapy to treat cancer of the prostate.
  • Unable to have pelvic MRI scanning (severe claustrophobia, permanent cardiac pacemaker, metallic implant, etc., likely to contribute significant artifact to images).

About this study

Official title: Multi-Centre, Ph IIb Study, Evaluating Safety & Efficacy of Targeted Intraprostatic Admin of PRX302 to Treat Men With Histologically Proven, Clinically Significant, Localised Prostate Cancer Associated With MRI Lesion

The purpose of this study is to determine a safe, effective, and tolerable dose of PRX302 for the treatment of low to intermediate risk prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

A multi-centre, open label, phase IIb study, evaluating the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a targeted intraprostatic focal administration in development. The study will treat approximately 40 men who meet the eligibility criteria, and give written consent. Safety and tolerability will be assessed post-treatment over 26 weeks. Efficacy will be assessed by biopsy and imaging (mpMRI) at 24 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]

    Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including both serious and non-serious AEs, and assessments of severity and relatedness to both the study drug agent (PRX302) and the rest of the injection procedure

    Measured: 26 weeks post administration

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Proportion of patients with an absence of clinically significant prostate cancer in the targeted area at 24 weeks post-administration of PRX302, as determined by a transperineal targeted biopsy [Efficacy]

    Clinically significant disease is defined as Gleason 7, or in the presence of Gleason 3+3 a maximum cancer core length > 6 mm

    Measured: 24 weeks post administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PRX302 in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Sophiris Bio Corp at 8 sites in 2 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 9 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 10 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States, United Kingdom. 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?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability] (time frame: 26 weeks post administration). 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 10 Apr 2019.
