Study Summary

This trial is for patients with advanced prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The trial will test a new treatment using modified immune cells to target the cancer cells. The goal is to

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and resisted treatment, who are currently on zoledronate for bone metastases. It's designed to find out if a new therapy using the patient's own modified T cells can safely target cancer cells.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests autologous T cells (the patient's own immune cells) that have been genetically altered to attack prostate cancer by targeting Prostate Stem Cell Antigen. The trial includes initial phases to determine safe dosage levels and later phases to evaluate how well these modified T cells work.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to Fludarabine and Cyclophosphamide such as nausea, fatigue, low blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk, liver or kidney issues. The modified T cell therapy could also cause immune system-related side effects.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of MSGV1-PSCA-8T28Z
Secondary outcome measures
Best Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Response rate
Percentage of circulating tumor cell count conversion from above 5/ml to below 5/ml.
Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS)

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dose ExpansionExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants will undergo leukapheresis followed by lymphodepletion and infusion of MSGV1-PSCA-8T28Z. Lymphodepletion will include 3 days of treatment with fludarabine (30 mg/m^2) and cyclophosphamide (500 mg/m^2) prior to study day 0. Participants will then receive MSGV1-PSCA-8T28Z at the dose level determined to be the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) in the dose escalation portion of the study.
Group II: Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants will undergo leukapheresis followed by lymphodepletion and infusion of MSGV1-PSCA-8T28Z. The lymphodepletion regimen includes cyclophosphamide (500 mg/m2) and fludarabine (30 mg/m2) administered over 3 days (Days -5, -4, -3). The standard "3+3" design will be used to guide dose escalation/de-escalation decisions based on the cumulative number of patients who experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) at the current dose. The first cohort of 3 patients will be treated at dose level 1. The target maximum doses infused at each dose level is: Dose Level 1: 1x10^5 cells/kg Dose Level 2: 3x10^5 cells/kg Dose Level 3: 1x10^6 cells/kg Dose Level 4: 3x10^6 cells/kg Dose Level 5: 1x10^6 cells/kg

However, there are currently 1215 other ongoing clinical trials that are actively recruiting patients at this time."

Answered by AI

What level of risk does Dose Expansion pose to individuals?

"Given the limited available data supporting safety and efficacy, our team at Power rates Dose Expansion with a score of 1 on a scale from 1 to 3. This is because it is classified as a Phase 1 trial."
