About this study

Official title: An Open, Single Dose, Antitumour Effect Study of 2-hydroxy-flutamide as a Controlled Release Product (Liproca Depot), Injected Into the Prostate in Patients With Localized Prostate Cancer

The primary aim of the study was to characterize and quantify the histopathological changes in the surgical specimens obtained in patients undergoing prostatectomy in addition to imaging changes (MRI) following a single injection of Liproca Depot in patients with localized prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

The primary aim of the study was to characterize and quantify the histopathological changes in the surgical specimens obtained in patients undergoing prostatectomy in addition to imaging changes (MRI) following a single injection of Liproca Depot in patients with localized prostate cancer.

The secondary aims ere to evaluate efficacy and safety of a single injection of Liproca Depot, and to follow the pharmacokinetic profile.

What participants receive

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

  • 2-hydroxyflutamide (2-HOF)Drug

    Also called Liproca Depot

    Two components are mixed, transferred to a syringe and administered with injection into the prostate

Study groups in NCT02341404
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Liproca DepotExperimentalA parenteral controlled release depot formulation of 2-hydroxyflutamide (2-HOF) is given as a single dose injection into the prostate gland within the lobe area where the tumour tissue is localized.
Receives: Drug: 2-hydroxyflutamide (2-HOF)

What is being measured

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

  1. Characterization and quantification of histopathological measurement of tumour tissue obtained from diagnostic biopsy.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Characterization and quantification of histopathological measurement of tumour tissue in surgical specimens obtained from patients undergoing prostatectomy

    Measured: Six weeks

  3. The diffusion/flow of tissue water (ADC) before and after treatment assessed by diffusion-weighted imaging (MRI)

    Measured: Six weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Concentration of Choline, Creatinine and Citrate in tumour tissue before and after treatment

    Measured: Six weeks

  2. Surface fraction and volume of treated tumour focus (foci) based on MRI and histopathological map from surgical specimens at baseline and end of study, respectively

    Measured: Six weeks

  3. Concentration of Plasma Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

    Measured: Six weeks

  4. Total prostate volume by histopathology/MRI measúrements

    Measured: Six weeks

  5. Number of participants with Adverse Events as a measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: Six weeks

  6. Number of abnormal, clinically relevant, parameters from laboratory analyses

    Measured: Six weeks

  7. Pharmacokinetics (Tmax and Cmax) of 2-hydroxyflutamide (2-HOF)

    Measured: Six weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 2-hydroxyflutamide (2-HOF) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Lidds AB at 2 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 9 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 11 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Finland, Sweden. 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?

Characterization and quantification of histopathological measurement of tumour tissue obtained from diagnostic biopsy. (time frame: Day 1). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Mar 2016.
