IS-002 Phase 2 Prostate Cancer Study

August 27, 2025 updated by: Intuitive Surgical

Phase 2 Multi-Center Randomized Controlled Feasibility Study of IS-002 in Subjects Undergoing Robotic-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Using the da Vinci® Surgical System With Firefly® Fluorescence Imaging

Phase 2 randomized controlled multi-center study of IS-002, in conjunction with near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging, for identification of prostate cancer during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with (extended) pelvic lymph node dissection ((e)PLND) using the da Vinci® X/Xi Surgical System with Firefly® Fluorescence Imaging.

Description

Inclusion criteria

  1. Subjects aged 18 to 75.
  2. Subject has a confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate as defined by (histo-) pathology.
  3. Subject has CAPRA ≥6; or ≥T3 disease on imaging (TRUS and/or MRI); or a Gleason sum score ≥8; or regional lymphadenopathy suspicious for nodal metastases on imaging.
  4. Subject is scheduled to undergo robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with (extended) pelvic lymph node dissection ((e)PLND) using a da Vinci® X/Xi Surgical System equipped with Firefly® Fluorescence Imaging.
  5. Subject is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  6. Subject can comply with the study procedures and study visits and understands an informed consent document.

Exclusion criteria

  1. Subject has known bone metastasis.
  2. Subject has known active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
  3. Subject has a known history of acute or chronic liver or kidney disease.

    • Renal function at screening: i. Creatinine clearance: <50 mL/min as determined using the Cockcroft-Gault formula ii. Albumin: <LLN

    • Hepatic function at screening: i. AST and/or ALT: >2.5x ULN ii. Total Bilirubin (serum): >1.5x ULN

  4. Subject has received neo-adjuvant therapy, radiation therapy, focal ablation therapy, hormonal therapy, or androgen deprivation therapy within the last 4 months.
  5. Subject is currently receiving an investigational therapeutic agent; or has participated in a study of an investigational therapeutic agent within the past 6 months prior to the day of IS-002 infusion; or is involved in a significant risk investigational device study within the past 6 months prior to the day of IS-002 infusion.
  6. Subject has any other condition or personal circumstance that, in the judgment of the site Investigator, might interfere with the collection of complete quality data or represents an unacceptable safety profile.

  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Sham Comparator: RARP + IS-002
Subjects will receive IS-002, but during surgery NO fluorescence imaging will be performed.
Intravenous administration of IS-002 approximately 24 hours prior to surgery
Subject will undergo robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection
Other Names:
  • RARP
Experimental: RARP + IS-002 + intraoperative near-infrared imaging
Subjects will receive IS-002, and during surgery fluorescence imaging will be performed.
Intravenous administration of IS-002 approximately 24 hours prior to surgery
Subject will undergo robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection
Other Names:
  • RARP
Near-infrared fluorescence imaging using Firefly technology will allow fluorescence imaging of IS-002

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The proportion of subjects with ≥1 positive surgical margins (PSMs) on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.
Time Frame: Within 3 months post-surgery
The proportion of subjects with ≥1 PSMs on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.
Within 3 months post-surgery
The mean number of positive surgical margins (PSMs) on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.
Time Frame: Within 3 months post-surgery
The mean number of PSMs on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.
Within 3 months post-surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Diagnostic performance of IS-002 fluorescence
Time Frame: Up to 1 year post-surgery
The key secondary outcome is the determination of false-positive, true-positive, false-negative and true-negatives rates.
Up to 1 year post-surgery
Safety: Adverse event assessment
Time Frame: Up to 1 year post-surgery
Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events from time of IS-002 administration through study exit using CTCAE v5.0
Up to 1 year post-surgery
Pharmacokinetics: Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)
Time Frame: Up to 24 hours post-IS-002 administration
