An Open-Label Study of CC-10004 for Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome

September 25, 2014 updated by: Kenneth Peters, MD
Prostatitis is the most common urologic diagnosis in men under the age of 50 and the third most common diagnosis in older men. In Chronic Prostatitis (CP) or Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS), men have lower urinary tract symptoms, pelvic pain, sexual dysfunction and decreased quality of life. Little is known about the cause of CP/CPPS. Likewise, no definitive therapy exists for CP/CPPS. We plan to study the use of CC-10004 in men with CP/CPPS.

Detailed Description

Prostatitis is the most common urologic diagnosis in men under the age of 50 and the third most common diagnosis in older men. In Chronic Prostatitis (CP) or Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS), men have lower urinary tract symptoms, pelvic pain, sexual dysfunction and decreased quality of life.

Little is known about the cause of CP/CPPS. Likewise, no definitive therapy exists for CP/CPPS. Unlike bacterial prostatitis, where a clear infecting organism can be determined, CP/CPPS is not always treated with antibiotics.

Due to the significant inflammatory nature of CP/CPPS, most prior therapies have focused on targeting the inflammation. CC-10004 in several studies has shown to be an inhibitor of inflammatory mediators, and may decrease the pain experienced from CP/CPPS.

  • Diagnosis of Chronic Prostatitis with a Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index of at least 15/24
  • Must meet the following laboratory criteria:

    • Hemoglobin > 9 g/dL
    • Hematocrit ≥ 27%
    • White blood cell (WBC) count ≥ 3000 /mL (≥ 3.0 X 109/L) and < 20,000/mL (< 20 X 109/L)
    • Platelets ≥ 100,000 /mL (≥ 100 X 109/L)
    • Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL (≤ 132.6 μmol/L)

  • Males (including those who have had a vasectomy) must agree to use barrier contraception (latex condoms) when engaging in sexual activity with female capable of becoming pregnant while on study medication and for 28 days after taking the last dose of study medication

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who are female.
  • Subjects with a documented positive urine culture within the past three months
  • Subjects with duration of symptoms less than three months

  • Subjects with known bladder or ureteral calculi
  • Subjects unable to complete a voiding diary
  • Subjects with neutropenia (ANC < 750/ mm3)
  • Any condition, including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he were to participate in the study or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study
  • History of active Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (any subspecies) within 3 years prior to the screening visit. Infections that occurred > 3 years prior to entry must have been effectively treated.
  • Positive Tuberculin skin test (Mantoux test)
  • Clinically significant abnormality on the chest x-ray (CXR) at screening
  • Any clinically significant abnormality on 12-lead ECG at screening
  • Use of any investigational medication within 28 days prior to randomization or 5 half-lives if known (whichever is longer)

  • Subjects currently taking chemotherapeutic agents
  • Positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C laboratory test result indicating active infection at screening.
  • Subjects with known history of significant disease as determined by the PI

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Global Response Assessment
Time Frame: 12 weeks

The primary efficacy measure was a Global Response Assessment (GRA), a subject completed questionnaire that measures improvement in overall symptoms on a 7-point scale: Markedly Improved - 7, Moderately Improved - 6, Mildly Improved - 5, Same - 4, Mildly Worse - 3, Moderately Worse - 2, Markedly Worse - 1.

The primary outcome showing response to treatment was the number of subjects that were moderately or markedly improved on the GRA scale.
