Neoadjuvant Study of In-situ REIC/Dkk-3 in Prostate Cancer

NCT01197209 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is a phase I neoadjuvant gene therapy followed by prostatectomy, open-label, dose-escalation trial for prostate cancer patients with high risk of local recurrence after radical prostatectomy. Patients entered into this trial will have Prostate Cancer of Clinical stage T1c, T2 or T3 with a Gleason Score of between 7 (4+3) and 10 at the time of enrollment. Patients will receive three 1 mL injections (3 mL total volume) of Ad-REIC/Dkk-3 into the prostate prior to undergoing a radical prostatectomy. Three patients will be treated at each dose level unless a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is observed or MFD (defined as 1 x 10e12 vp/treatment) is achieved with expansion for up to 6 more patients at the MTD or MFD.

BIOLOGICAL

Ad-REIC/Dkk-3

REIC (Reduced Expression in Immortalized Cells) protein is down regulated in a variety of cancer cell lines including prostate tumors. The REIC gene is identical to the Dickkopf-3 (Dkk-3) gene that is a member of the Dickkopf gene family. Ad-REIC/Dkk-3 is designed as a viral vector that delivers a DNA plasmid capable of producing intracellular REIC protein. The expression plasmid includes the full-length human cDNA sequence for REIC. The adenovirus vector is a transport mechanism to infuse the REIC/Dkk-3 plasmid into the cell providing a temporary transfusion of REIC protein.
