Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a single arm pilot study to evaluate the safety of delivering a dendritic cell vaccine in fifteen to twenty-four (n=15-24) adult patients diagnosed with prostate adenocarcinoma after novel androgen-deprived therapy and docetaxel chemotherapy failure. The study is constructed in a 3+3 design for three steps of dose escalation with rigorous and mandatory safety monitoring. Subjects received the vaccine at a dose of 5-15×10^6 cells every two weeks for a total of 3 doses. A dose from cohort 1-3 is recommended for booster immunization every 4 weeks until disease progression or intolerance, to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the booster immunization of Prodencel. Subjects will be monitored for adverse events as dictated by CTCAE version 5.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
