About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of Sipuleucel-T and Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation (SABR) for Patients With Metastatic Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)

In this i-SABR (immunotherapy + Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation) trial, the stereotactic radiation to multiple metastatic sites is delivered not only to eradicate sites of bulky progressive disease, but also to provide antigen presentation and immune stimulation which is expected to act synergistically to the concurrently administered immunotherapy Sipuleucel-T and thereby significantly improve the treatment outcome for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer patients (mCRPC). Both Sipuleucel-T and SABR are FDA approved therapeutic cancer treatment

Being tested
Sipuleucel-T, Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Progression

    To evaluate the improvement in the time to progression (TTP) of metastatic prostate cancer after the combined treatment with sipuleucel-T and SABR to metastatic sites, as compared to the historically reported data with the treatment of sipuleucel-T alone. Progression will be evaluated in this study using the modified new international criteria proposed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) Committee [JNCI 92(3):205-216, 2000] with modifications suggested by PCWG2 [49] recommendations and as used in the Phase III clinical trial by Kantoff et. al.[10]. Changes in only the largest diameter (one-dimensional measurement) of the tumor lesions are used in the RECIST v1.1 criteria as outlined in http://www.recist.com/.

    Measured: 4 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Immune Response

    To evaluate the percentage of participants with Immune response at 6 weeks. Immune response will be measured using ELISpot assay (with PA2024). An immune endpoint will be reached by the patient if a >100% increase in immune response is measured by ANY of the assays.

    Measured: 6 week

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    To evaluate the improvement in the overall survival (OS) of mCRPCa patients after the combined treatment with sipuleucel-T and SABR to metastatic sites, as compared to the historically reported data with the treatment of sipuleucel-T alone. Overall survival (OS) was defined as the duration of time from the start of treatment to the time of death from any cause.

    Measured: 60 months

  3. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    To evaluate the improvement in the progression free survival (PFS) of mCRPCa patients after the combined treatment with sipuleucel-T and SABR to metastatic sites, as compared to the historically reported data with the treatment of sipuleucel-T alone. Progression free survival (PFS) was defined as the length of time from the start of treatment to disease progression or death from any cause.

    Measured: 4 years

  4. Biochemical Progression Free Survival (bPFS)

    To evaluate the improvement in the biochemical progression free survival (bPFS) of mCRPCa patients after the combined treatment with sipuleucel-T and SABR to metastatic sites, as compared to the historically reported data with the treatment of sipuleucel-T alone. Biochemical progression free survival was defined as the time from the beginning of treatment to PSA (prostate-specific antigen) disease progression. Biochemical progression was defined as an increase in PSA of > 2 ng/ml from baseline and an increase of > 25% from the baseline value and confirmed by a second measurement more than three weeks later.

    Measured: 4 years

  5. Prostate Cancer-specific Survival (PCaSS)

    To evaluate the improvement in the prostate cancer-specific survival (PCaSS) of mCRPCa patients after the combined treatment with sipuleucel-T and SABR to metastatic sites, as compared to the historically reported data with the treatment of sipuleucel-T alone. Prostate cancer-specific survival was defined as the percentage of patients who had not died from prostate cancer at the time of analysis

    Measured: 4 years

  6. Adverse Events

    To evaluate the adverse events for the first 6 months after completion of radiation therapy associated with Sipuleucel-T when administered in combination with SABR to metastatic sites, as compared to the historically reported data with the treatment of Sipuleucel-T alone. Toxicity will be assessed according to the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 4.0. Adverse events not specifically defined in the NCI CTCAE will be scored on the Adverse Event log according to the general guidelines provided by the NCI CTCAE and as outlined:

    Grade 1: Mild Grade 2: Moderate Grade 3: Severe or medically significant but not immediately life threatening Grade 4: Life threatening consequences Grade 5: Death related to the adverse event

    Measured: 60 months

  7. Cost Effectiveness and Health-related Quality Adjusted Life

    To evaluate the cost effectiveness and health-related quality adjusted life of the combination treatment of SABR and sipuleucel T in patients with mCRPC.

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sipuleucel-T and Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation in people with Metastatic Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer and mCRPC, run by University of Texas Southwestern Medical 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 12 inclusion and 13 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 6 May 2022. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 May 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Time to Progression (time frame: 4 years). 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 6 May 2022.
