Brief Summary

This phase I clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of Prodencel (an autologous dendritic cell therapeutic tumor vaccine.) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Detailed Description

This is a single arm pilot study to evaluate the safety of delivering a dendritic cell vaccine in fifteen to twenty-four (n=15-24) adult patients diagnosed with prostate adenocarcinoma after novel androgen-deprived therapy and docetaxel chemotherapy failure. The study is constructed in a 3+3 design for three steps of dose escalation with rigorous and mandatory safety monitoring. Subjects received the vaccine at a dose of 5-15×10^6 cells every two weeks for a total of 3 doses. A dose from cohort 1-3 is recommended for booster immunization every 4 weeks until disease progression or intolerance, to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the booster immunization of Prodencel. Subjects will be monitored for adverse events as dictated by CTCAE version 5.

Conditions

Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Prodencel Treated for mCRPC

Cohort 1: Each subject would receive Prodencel treatment at a dose of 5×10^6 cells every two weeks for a total of 3 doses.

Cohort 2: Each subject would receive Prodencel treatment at a dose of 10×10^6 cells every two weeks for a total of 3 doses.

Cohort 3: Each subject would receive Prodencel treatment at a dose of 15×10^6 cells every two weeks for a total of 3 doses.

Cohort 4: The safe and effective dose from cohort 1-3 is recommended for booster immunization of cohort 4. Subjects will receive additional Prodencel treatment every 4 weeks, until disease progression or intolerance after the 3 doses of immune induction, to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the booster immunization.

• Positive infectious disease screening. Active HBV hepatitis (defined as positive HBsAg with HBV-DNA ≥ upper limit of normal （ULN））; Active hepatitis C (defined as HBV-Ab ≥ULN)； Positive COVID-19；Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection with HIV-Ab ≥ULN；Positive syphilis with TP-Ab≥ULN.
• Myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac surgery or interventional therapy within 6 months prior to enrollment. Congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation or other poorly controlled arrhythmias.
• Cerebrovascular events (including hemorrhagic, ischemic, transient ischemic attack), craniocerebral surgery and unexplained loss of consciousness occurred within 6 months before enrollment.
• Presence of the malignant pleural effusion or malignant ascites.
• History of severe allergic reactions or allergies to the ingredients of Prodencel.
• Abnormal screening hematologic function: white blood cell count (WBC)<3.0×109/L, neutrophil count (NEUT)<1.5×10^9/L, platelet count (PLT)<100×10^9/L, hemoglobin (Hb)< 100g/L.
• Abnormal screening coagulation function: prothrombin time (PT) ≥ULN, international normalized ratio (INR) ≥ULN, thrombin time (TT) ≥ULN.
• Abnormal screening liver and kidney function: total bilirubin (TBIL) > 1.5ULN, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 2.5ULN; serum creatinine (SCr) > 1.5 ULN.
• History of splenectomy.
• Presence of primary or secondary immunodeficiency disease.
• History of uncontrolled seizures, central nervous system disorders, or psychotic loss of cognition.
• History of chronic alcohol or drug abuse within 6 months prior to screening.
• Unstable systemic diseases, such as active infection, liver cirrhosis, chronic renal failure, severe chronic lung diseases, etc.
• Clinically severe pericardial effusion.
• Not suitable for leukapheresis.
• For any other reasons, the patients are believed not suitable for participation in this study by investigators.
