About this study

Official title: G-202-005: An Open-Label, Single-Arm, Phase II Study to Evaluate the Safety and Activity of G-202 Administered in the Neoadjuvant Setting Followed by Radical Prostatectomy in Patients With Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

A single-arm, open-label Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the effect of G-202 on the perfusion and volume of the prostate using non-invasive multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI).

Read the detailed description

More than one-third of patients with localized high-risk prostate cancer who undergo radical prostatectomy eventually relapse with distant disease and some data suggest that neoadjuvant treatment in this patient population may be helpful. This study is based on prodrug tumor targeting, in which an inactive form of a toxic agent is administered systemically and gets activated in specific locations in the body, resulting in higher concentrations of the cytotoxic form at the tumor location. G-202 is a prodrug that is activated in prostate cancer tissue and in the blood vessels of tumors, but not normal tissue; once activated, G-202 leads to disruption of intracellular calcium levels and subsequent induction of apoptosis. Thus, G-202 is expected to bring about cell death in prostate cancer cells and to destroy the blood supply of prostate tumors. G-202 has led to disease stabilization in some patients, but the drug has not been evaluated in the neoadjuvant setting. This single-arm, open-label Phase II clinical trial will evaluate the safety and activity of G-202 in patients with localized high-risk prostate cancer prior to radical prostatectomy. Through its effects on the neovasculature of tumors, G-202 is anticipated to disrupt the blood supply of the prostate tumor, resulting in decreased perfusion and subsequent tumor volume. The primary endpoint of this study is evaluation of G-202 on the perfusion and volume of the prostate using non-invasive multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI).

    Measured: 12 weeks from first administration of G-202

  2. Perfusion of the prostate using multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI)

    mpMRI performed after 3 cycles of treatment prior to prostatectomy

    Measured: 12 weeks from first administration of G-202

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing G-202 in people with Prostatic Neoplasms, run by GenSpera, Inc. 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 11 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2017. 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?

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?

Volume of the prostate using multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) (time frame: 12 weeks from first administration of G-202). The study lists 2 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 24 Feb 2017.
