About this study

A Phase Ib2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled safety and efficacy study evaluating different regimens of the immunotherapeutic drug, Mobilan (M-VM3), in patients with prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

Mobilan is a nanoparticle-formulated, recombinant non-replicating adenovirus immunotherapeutic drug that directs expression of both toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) and a specific agonistic ligand, entolimod (which is a recombinant form of the natural TLR5 ligand, flagellin).

The viral construct infects cells expressing the Coxsackie virus and adenovirus receptor (CAR), which has been shown in preclinical studies to be highly expressed in human prostatic tissue, including prostate cancer tissue. Upon infection, co-expression of both receptor and ligand in the same transfected cell triggers persistent autocrine stimulation of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling cascade. In a syngeneic mouse prostate cancer model, prostatic injection of Mobilan leads to activation of an innate immune response with infiltration of neutrophils and natural killer cells (NK) cells and induction of an adaptive immune response, comprising cytotoxic (cluster of differentiation [CD]8+) T cells. Necrotic changes in tumor cells were observed in Mobilan-treated animals with concomitant reductions in prostatic volume. Mobilan also show anti-metastatic activity in a surgical adjuvant mouse model of prostate cancer.

This clinical trial is a Phase Ib double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy, safety, and pharmacology of either 1 or 2 injections of Mobilan or placebo when administered as neoadjuvant therapy directly into the prostates of patients with newly diagnosed prostate cancer.

All study subjects will receive 2 study drug injections administered 2 weeks apart and will be randomly allocated in a 1:1:1 ratio to 1 of the following 3 drug administration schedules:

  • Arm A: Mobilan on both Day 1 and on Day 15.
  • Arm B: Placebo on Day 1 and Mobilan on Day 15.
  • Arm C: Placebo on both Day 1 and Day 15 Subjects will subsequently undergo planned prostatectomy, ideally within 2 weeks following the final study drug injection and will remain under observation thereafter.

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency and intensity of adverse events (according to CTCAE v 4.03 classification)

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

  2. Counting of CD4+ and CD8+ cells in prostate biopsy and surgery samples

    Using immunological assays

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change in total Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

  2. Value of the Irani score of post-operative prostate tissue (if material is available for analysis)

    Irani J (1997) scale include histological assessment of slide mounts obtained after operation as follow:

    Degree of immune cell infiltration:

    0 - No inflammatory cells, 1 - Scattered inflammatory cell infiltrate within the stroma without lymphoid nodules, 2 - Nonconfluent lymphoid nodules, 3 - Large inflammatory areas with confluence of infiltrate

    Measured: On Day 30 after the first drug administration

  3. Value of the Gleason score of post-operative prostate tissue (if material is available for analysis)

    The Gleason grading system is used to evaluate the stage of prostate cancer using samples from biopsy or post- surgical samples as follow:

    1 - The cancerous prostate closely resembles normal prostate tissue. 2 - The tissue still has well-formed glands, but they are larger and have more tissue between them. 3 - The tissue still has recognizable glands, but the cells are darker. 4 - The tissue has few recognizable glands. 5 - The tissue does not have any or only a few recognizable glands.

    Measured: On Day 30 after the first drug administration

  4. Plasma concentration of inflammatory cytokines

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

  5. Presence of protein 502s in blood plasma

    Using ELISA assay

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

  6. Presence of protein 502s in prostate biopsy and surgery samples

    Using ELISA assay

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

  7. Presence of protein TLR5 in prostate biopsy and surgery samples

    Using ELISA assay

    Measured: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Mobilan (M-VM3) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Panacela Labs LLC at 4 sites in Russia.

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 6 inclusion and 33 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Russia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Frequency and intensity of adverse events (according to CTCAE v 4.03 classification) (time frame: Baseline to up to 45 days after the first drug administration). 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 20 Sep 2017.
