Measure
NanoPac
Direct injection of NanoPac at 15 mg/mL at a volume not to exceed the volume of the prostate cancer lesion (no more than 10% of total prostate volume). NanoPac will be administered on up to three occasions, with at least 28 days between each dose. NanoPac (sterile nanoparticulate paclitaxel) Powder for Suspension: NanoPac is manufactured using a Precipitation with Compressed Antisolvent (PCA) technique that employs supercritical carbon dioxide and acetone to generate paclitaxel nanoparticles. For clinical administration, the NanoPac powder in vial is suspended with Sterile Reconstitution Solution (1% Polysorbate 80, NF in 0.9% Sodium Chloride for Injection, USP) and then further diluted with 0.9% Sodium Chloride for Injection, USP, to achieve the final clinical formulation.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 2 weeks prior to Day 1 and Day 92

Population: Data not collected

Prostate tissue samples obtained from a biopsy performed prior to baseline and prostatectomy. Histologic evaluation of these samples will be used to determine the Gleason score, and the results at baseline and Day 92 will be used to evaluate the tumor response to NanoPac. The Gleason score is calculated by adding together the two grades of cancer cells that make up the largest areas of the biopsied tissue sample. The Gleason score usually ranges from 6 to 10. The lower the Gleason score, the more the cancer cells look like normal cells and are likely to grow and spread slowly; a higher Gleason score is likely to indicate a worse outcome. The Gleason score is used to help plan treatment and determine prognosis.

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 2 weeks prior to Day 1 and Day 92

Population: Data not collected

Tissues excised from the dominant lesion during prostatectomy (Day 92) will be evaluated for the percentage considered adenocarcinoma and compared to biopsy sample obtained at baseline.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 1 month prior to Consent and Day 85

Population: Data not collected

The proportion of subjects with local invasion as measured by mpMRI at the final study visit will be compared to screening (baseline)

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 1 month prior to Consent and Day 85

Population: Data not collected

Tumor response to treatment with NanoPac will be determined by evaluating the change in image volume with multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) obtained prior to consent and again at the final study visit.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 2 weeks prior to Day 1 and Day 85

PSA density (PSAD), is a calculation of the serum PSA level divided by the volume of the prostate gland. PSA density has been used as a prognostication tool in helping decide treatment approach. PSA density measured at the final study visit will be compared to screening (baseline)

0 percent change in PSAD

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 2 weeks prior to Day 1 and Day 85

Population: Data not collected

The Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) assessment uses a five-point scale based on the probability that a combination of mpMRI findings on T2 weighting (T2W), Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI), and Dynamic Contrast Enhancement (DCE) correlates with the presence of a clinically significant cancer in the prostate gland. A PI-RADS score of 1 is considered to be most probably benign and a score of 5 is considered to be highly suspicious of prostate malignancy. PI-RADS score will be measured at screening (baseline) and at the final study visit.
