HEAT Trial Summary

This trial evaluates a therapy (enoblituzumab) given before surgery to treat prostate cancer. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive the therapy or standard care.

Who is the study for?
Men with high-risk localized prostate cancer that hasn't spread to lymph nodes, bones, or organs. Eligible participants must have a specific type of tumor (adenocarcinoma), certain levels of blood cells and organ function, agree to use barrier contraception, and be able to follow study requirements. Those who've had prior treatments for prostate cancer or have other health conditions like autoimmune diseases are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of Enoblituzumab given before surgery compared to standard care in men with high-risk prostate cancer. Participants will either receive Enoblituzumab for 12 weeks before their scheduled radical prostatectomy or undergo the usual treatment without this drug.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Enoblituzumab may cause immune-related reactions because it's designed to activate the body's defense system against cancer cells. This can sometimes lead to inflammation in various parts of the body, which might result in symptoms like fatigue, skin rashes, fever, or more serious issues depending on where the reaction occurs.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: EnoblituzumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Men with localized intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer will be given neoadjuvant Enoblituzumab 15mg/kg IV every 2 weeks for 12 weeks, followed by a radical prostatectomy on day 84, with follow-up visits 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, and 9 months post-prostatectomy. PSA values will be tracked for 3 years post-prostatectomy.
Group II: Standard of CareActive Control1 Intervention
Patients will undergo standard of care radical prostatectomy within 4-8 weeks of randomization.
