About this study

Official title: Study of the Efficacy,Safety and Quality of Life After TOOKAD® Soluble Vascular Targeted Photodynamic Therapy (VTP) for Minimally Invasive Treatment of Localized Prostate Cancer

The aim of this study is to confirm the Efficacy,the Safety and the Quality of Life after TOOKAD® Soluble VTP in localized prostate cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

The study is designed as a multicenter, single-arm, open label, 12 months follow-up clinical trial. Men with localized prostate cancer will be treated with TOOKAD® Soluble VTP under general anesthesia.

Patients will be followed-up for 12 months with patient questionnaires on QoL, erectile and urinary functions, clinical evaluation with study visits at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months , Prostate Specific Antigen(PSA) testing at 3, 6 and 12 months. In addition, they will have biopsy at 6 months (± 2) and 12 months.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TOOKAD® SolubleDrug

    Also called WST11

    The VTP procedure will consist of a single, 10 minute infusion of 4mg/kg TOOKAD® Soluble. The drug will be activated by laser light at 753nm, with a fixed energy of 200Joules/cm, and a fixed power of 150mWatts/cm, delivered through transperineal interstitial optical fibers. The needles are positioned in the prostate under ultra sound image guidance.

What is being measured

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

  1. To confirm that a significant proportion of patients will be prostate cancer free on the biopsy.

    Number of patients with a negative biopsy.

    Measured: Month 12

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Changes in urinary and erectile functions and their potential impact on quality of life using International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) and the General quality of life (EQ5D) questionnaires.

    Patients' reported outcome measures (PROMs) impairment: urinary symptoms using IPSS and erectile functions using IIEF. Quality of life using EQ5D will also be described

    Measured: Screening, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after completing treatment

  2. The rate of adverse events.

    Adverse event reporting.

    Measured: Screening-Month 12

  3. The overall cancer burden in the prostate determined by biopsy as compared to baseline.

    Total length of cancer present in all cores taken in any given biopsy session

    Measured: Month 12

  4. The rate of severe prostate cancer related events: cancer extension to T3, metastasis and prostate cancer related death

    Severe prostate cancer related events: cancer extension to T3, metastasis or prostate cancer-related death.

    Measured: Screening-Month 12

A Phase 3 study testing TOOKAD® Soluble in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Steba Biotech S.A. at 3 sites in 3 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 8 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Mexico, Panama, Peru. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

To confirm that a significant proportion of patients will be prostate cancer free on the biopsy. (time frame: Month 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01875393, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
