Phase II Trial Of TPE And Immunotherapy In Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to to compare the overall response rate (ORR) of patients with mBCa who receive TPE and ADC/ICI re-challenge (Group A) versus nextline standard of care therapy (Group B) after progression on EV/pembro.

    • Skin cancer (melanoma or non-melanoma) that is considered completely cured

    • Non-invasive cervical cancer that is considered completely cured

    • Breast cancer: adequately treated lobular carcinoma in situ or ductal carcinoma in situ considered to have a very low risk of recurrence

    • Localized prostate cancer (T1c/T2N0M0):

      • Gleason score 6, treated by either surgery or ablation ≤24 months prior to registration or untreated and under active surveillance

      • Gleason score 3+4 that has been treated (may include surgery or ablation) ≤24 months prior to registration and considered to have a very low risk of recurrence (i.e., cT1c or pT2 on prostatectomy specimen)
