Study Summary

This trial is for men with advanced prostate cancer. The purpose is to treat patients with an experimental antibody called J591 that attaches itself to a special protein on cancer cells called PSMA to try to eliminate these cancer cells from the circulation.

Eligible Conditions
  • Prostate Cancer

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Changes in frequency of achieving a decrease in Circulating tumor count (CTC)
Secondary outcome measures
Change in disease response through the optional (but recommended) prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT imaging
Change in duration of Circulating tumor count (CTC) response
Changes in prostate specific antigen (PSA) measurable disease response

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: HuJ591 AdministrationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
6 subjects will be treated at 300 mg dose. The decision about treating subjects at the lower dose will depend upon their response. If ≥4 of 6 subjects respond at the 300 mg level, then 6 more subjects will be recruited at the 200 mg level. If ≥4 of 6 subjects respond at the 200 mg level than 6 more subjects will be recruited at the next dose level of 100 mg. If ≥ 4/6 subjects respond at this level, then 6 subjects will be recruited at the last dose level of 50 mg. At any level, if the first four consecutive subjects respond, the next two subjects will be enrolled in the same dose-level cohort and further subjects will be recruited at the next dose level. Response at every dose level is defined by conversion from an unfavorable CTC count at baseline to a favorable CTC count.
