Study Summary

This trial will test a new drug, Enoblituzumab, to see if it is safe and effective against prostate cancer. Patients will receive the drug for 6 weeks before surgery.

Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with intermediate/high-risk localized prostate cancer (stage T1c-T3b, N0, M0) can join. They must have a scheduled radical prostatectomy at Johns Hopkins Hospital, good physical health and organ function, and agree to use barrier contraception from the first dose until surgery. Excluded are those who've had prior treatments for prostate cancer or other cancers in the last 3 years (except certain skin/bladder cancers), autoimmune diseases needing immunosuppression, major illnesses, or known HIV/hepatitis B/C.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Enoblituzumab's safety and effectiveness when given before surgical removal of the prostate. Participants will receive six weekly doses starting about seven weeks before their surgery to see if it helps reduce tumor size and affects immune response.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Enoblituzumab may include reactions at the injection site, flu-like symptoms such as fever or chills, fatigue, nausea, changes in blood pressure or heart rate. More serious but less common could be allergic reactions or effects on immune system causing it to attack normal cells.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What is the cap on participants in this research trial?

"This research project has concluded its recruitment phase. It was initially advertised on February 14th 2017 and last modified on December 7th 2022. Nevertheless, there are presently 1326 clinical trials searching for prostate cancer patients and one seeking volunteers to test Enoblituzumab."

Answered by AI

Have there been any other investigations into the effects of Enoblituzumab?

"Currently, there is one active research project investigating enoblituzumab and it has yet to reach Phase 3. While most of the trials for this drug are being performed in Baltimore, Maryland, a single other medical centre also offers testing with this medication."

Answered by AI

What are the main goals of this clinical experimentation?

"During this two year trial, the primary focus is to assess neoadjuvant enoblituzumab's efficacy through PSA0 response rate. Secondary objectives include evaluating participants' pathological complete responses (pCR) and Gleason Grade Group Change as well as quantifying markers of apoptosis in prostate tumor specimens of treated patients via TUNEL staining."

Answered by AI

Has Enoblituzumab earned endorsement from the FDA?

"This Phase 2 trial has generated some evidence indicating Enoblituzumab's safety, thus garnering a score of 2. Nonetheless, there is still no empirical proof that this medication can be effective at treating its respective conditions."

Answered by AI

Are there any current openings for participation in this experiment?

"As reported on clinicaltrials.gov, this specific trial has concluded its recruitment phase and is no longer looking for individuals to participate. This study was first announced in February 2017 with the last modification being made in December 2022; however, 1327 other trials are still actively seeking participants at this time."

Answered by AI

Is this research a pioneering venture?

"Currently, there is an active clinical trial for enoblituzumab running in 1 city and 1 nation. This drug was initially tested back in 2017 by MacroGenics with 33 participants concluding its Phase 2 trials. Since then, 5 studies have been concluded."
