About this study
In this study, we propose to use the combination of ET-SPACE NIR irradiation whole-body thermal stimulation, ICI (Tislelizumab), and RTK inhibitor (Anlotinib) in the multimodal treatment of CRPC.
Read the detailed description
The initial efficacy and safety of the multimodal therapy will be evaluated at the animal level to fully validate the potential feasibility of the therapy. Subsequently, the efficacy of the multimodal therapy will be verified at the organoid level, and based on which a translational randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the multimodal therapy at the human level, and the patients will be followed up for a long period of time, so as to collect detailed data on improvement of the quality of life. Finally, the synergistic effect of the multimodal therapy will be analyzed at the molecular and cellular levels.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ImmunotherapyDrug
Also called Immune checkpoint inhibitor, ICI, Tislelizumab (BeiGene, China)
Immunotherapy is currently a hot spot in the field of tumor research. Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) is a monoclonal antibody designed to target the negative immunoregulatory pathway overexpressed in tumor cells, which can release the anti-tumor immunosuppressive signals and restore the killing of tumors by the immune cells, and thus exert anti-tumor effects. ICI regimen: Tislelizumab, 200mg, ivgtt., d1, q21d.
Targeted therapyDrug
Also called RTK inhibitor, Anlotinib (CHIATAI TIANQING PHARMACEUTICAL GROUP, China)
Recent studies have found that the combination of RTK inhibitors and ICIs can exert synergistic effects on different mechanisms, which can compensate for the deficiencies of single-agent RTK inhibitors and single-agent ICIs in the treatment of CRPC and become a potential novel therapeutic strategy for solid malignant tumors. RTK inhibitor regimen: Anlotinib, 12mg, po., d2~15, q21d.
HyperthermiaDevice
Also called ET-SPACE whole body hyperthermia, near infrared irradiation, ET-SPACE™ (Shenzhen ET medical, China), heat stress
Thermal stimulation is a rapidly developing physiotherapeutic tool, which is playing an increasingly important role in the field of comprehensive tumor therapy due to its unique low adverse effects and high compatibility. A large number of clinical studies have shown that the addition of heat stress to multimodal tumor therapy does not significantly increase toxicity and side effects, and the combination of heat stress with other therapies can have the effect of "1+1>2". ET-SPACE near-infrared irradiation whole-body hyperthermia: d1, d8, q21d, rectal temperature reaches 38.5~39 ℃ and then maintain 1h.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Immuno-targeted therapy group | Experimental | ICI regimen: Tislelizumab, 200mg, ivgtt., d1, q21d; RTK inhibitor regimen: Anlotinib, 12mg (at an initial dose of 12mg, later adjusted according to the instructions), po., d1~14, q21d. Receives: Drug: Immunotherapy; Drug: Targeted therapy |
| Hyperthermia-immuno-targeted therapy group | Experimental | ET-SPACE near-infrared irradiation whole-body hyperthermia: d1, d8, q21d, rectal temperature reaches 38.5~39 ℃ and then maintain 1h. ICI regimen: Tislelizumab, 200mg, ivgtt., d2, q21d; RTK inhibitor regimen: Anlotinib, 12mg (at an initial dose of 12mg, later adjusted according to the instructions), po., d2~15, q21d. Receives: Drug: Immunotherapy; Drug: Targeted therapy; Device: Hyperthermia |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Biochemical objective response rate (BORR)
Detect blood PSA levels before and during treatment, compare baseline and post treatment PSA difference levels, and evaluate efficacy.
Bio Complete Response (BCR): PSA remains normal or decreases to normal (4ng/mL) for at least 3 weeks.
Partial Biochemical Response (BPR): PSA decreased by ≥ 50% from baseline and maintained for at least 3 weeks.
BPRR=BCR+BPR/All patients × 100%.
Measured: 3 weeks
Secondary outcomes (1)
Bio-Disease Control Rate (BDCR)
Bio Complete Response (BCR): PSA remains normal or decreases to normal (4ng/mL) for at least 3 weeks.
Partial Biochemical Response (BPR): PSA decreased by ≥ 50% from baseline and maintained for at least 3 weeks.
Bio Progression Disease (BPD): PSA increased by ≥ 25% from baseline. BDCR=BCR+BPR+BPD/All patients × 100%.
Measured: 3 weeks
