About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of a Multitargeted Recombinant Ad5 PSA/MUC-1/Brachyury-based Immunotherapy (TriAdeno) Vaccine With IL-15 Superagonist N-803 in Participants With Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer Undergoing Active Surveillance

Background:

Prostate cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related death among men in the United States. Early-stage, low-grade prostate cancer is managed with active monitoring. However, 35% of men with this cancer will need treatment within 5 years because of tumor growth. Researchers want to know if a new vaccine that targets 3 anti-cancer proteins (TriAdeno) plus a drug (N-803) approved for bladder cancer can help stop prostate tumors from growing.

Read more

Objective:

To test TriAdeno and N-803 in people with early-stage prostate cancer.

Eligibility:

People aged 18 years and older with early-stage low- or medium-risk prostate cancer.

Design:

Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have a test of their heart function. They will have an imaging scan. They may have a rectal exam.

TriAdeno is injected under the skin of the upper thigh; N-803 is injected under the skin of the abdomen. Participants will be treated in up to four 21-day cycles. They will get both injections on the first day of each cycle.

Participants may opt to complete a memory aid: They may record all of their symptoms for 7 days after each injection. They may also complete a questionnaire about their prostate symptoms.

Blood tests, imaging scans, and other tests will be repeated during the study.

A tissue sample (biopsy) of the tumor will be collected during or after cycle 2; a second biopsy may be taken about 1 year later.

Participants will have follow-up phone calls for 5 years....

Read the detailed description

Background:

  • Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common non-cutaneous cancer and second most common cause of cancer-related death among men living in the United States.
  • With increasing detection of localized, low-grade PCa in the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening era, active surveillance of PCa has emerged as a viable management strategy in selected, favorable risk population. Though active surveillance is the preferred management strategy for low-grade PCa and an option for selected favorable, intermediate risk disease according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), up to 35% of men will need radical therapy within 5 years due to progression of PCa.
  • Vaccine strategies represent a novel therapeutic approach in the prevention and possible treatment of early-stage PCa. A new trivalent vaccine which targets 3 tumor-associated antigens (PSA, brachyury, and MUC-1) has been shown to induce an immune response in a Phase I study of patients with metastatic castrate-resistant PCa.
  • N-803 is an IL-15 agonist that activates and expands T cells and NK cells. N-803 enhances anti-tumor activity in combination with tumor-targeted vaccines. Clinically, multiple studies have demonstrated the safety of tumor-targeted vaccine in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. Adding N-803 to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade can produce antitumor responses in disease states where responses to PD-1/PD-L1 alone would not be expected.
  • The TriAdeno vaccine has not been evaluated in populations with early stage, low grade PCa.

Primary Objective:

-To determine the effect of an Ad5 PSA/MUC-1/brachyury-based immunotherapy vaccine (TriAdeno) with IL-15 superagonist N-803 on immune infiltration of the local tumor environment by comparing pre- and post-treatment CD8+ and CD4+ T-cell density within the malignant portion of prostate biopsies in participants on active surveillance for low and intermediate risk prostate cancer

Eligibility:

  • Biopsy-proven, organ confined low or intermediate risk adenocarcinoma of the prostate
  • Age >=18 years
  • Serum PSA <20 ng/mL (or <10 ng/mL for participants being treated with 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors)
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status <=1

Design:

  • This is an open-label, non-randomized Phase II trial of TriAdeno vaccine given concurrently with N-803 in participants with localized, early stage, low and intermediate risk PCa on active surveillance.
  • The TriAdeno vaccines will be administered subcutaneously (SC) at doses of 5x1011 viral particles (VP) on Day 1 of every 21-day cycle for up to four (4) cycles.
  • N-803 will be administered SC at 15 mcg/kg on Day 1 of every 21-day cycle for up to four (4) cycles.
  • Up to 49 participants may be treated.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the effect of TriAdeno vaccine with N-803 on immune infiltration of the local tumor environment

    Change in the density of T-cell immune infiltrates in the malignant portions of prostate using a paired two sample t-test

    Measured: Baseline/prior to treatment, C2D14 (or as late as C4D21), and optionally at 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To assess the adverse events associated with TriAdeno vaccine and N-803

    Toxicities will be reported in a descriptive fashion per type, frequency, and grade

    Measured: Day 1 of each cycle, and through at least 30 days after last treatment

  2. To determine the effect of the TriAdeno vaccines with N-803 on the change in PSA

    Change in PSA will be analyzed using a paired two sample t-test.

    Measured: Day 1 of each cycle after C1, 30 days after last treatment, and in follow-up about every 3 months for 1 year and every 6 months for the subsequent 4 years after the end of study therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TriAdeno vaccine and N-803 in people with Adenocarcinoma and Prostate Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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 23 inclusion and 16 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Oct 2026. 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?

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Genevieve C Fromm ((240) 858-3663, genevieve.fromm@nih.gov), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the effect of TriAdeno vaccine with N-803 on immune infiltration of the local tumor environment (time frame: Baseline/prior to treatment, C2D14 (or as late as C4D21), and optionally at 1 year). 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 26 Oct 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
