Trial of Neoadjuvant Enoblituzumab vs SOC in Men With High-Risk Localized Prostate Cancer
- Registration Number
- NCT06014255
- Lead Sponsor
- Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
- Brief Summary
This study evaluates the efficacy, anti-tumor effect, and immunogenicity of neoadjuvant enoblituzumab given before radical prostatectomy. Patients will be randomized to enoblituzumab for a total of 12 weeks beginning 84 days before radical prostatectomy or standard of care arms.
- Detailed Description
This is a multi-center, randomized, phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy, anti-tumor effect, and immunogenicity of neoadjuvant enoblituzumab given prior to radical prostatectomy in men with high-risk localized prostate cancer. Patients will be recruited from the outpatient Urology clinics and Multidisciplinary Prostate Cancer ("Precision Medicine") Clinics at four participating institutions including: Harvard/Dana-Farber Cancer Centers, Northwestern Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center, Mayo Clinic, and the University of Minnesota Masonic Cancer Center. Eligible patients will undergo a pre-treatment prostate biopsy and conventional imaging (CT and bone scan) as well as PSMA-PET and optional prostate MRI as per institutional preferences. Patients who have N0 M0 disease by conventional imaging (N1 by PSMA allowed with up to 3 LNs each ≤1 cm) will be trial eligible as long as concurrent hormonal or radiation therapy is not given. Patients will then be randomized to enoblituzumab for a total of 12 weeks beginning 84 days prior to radical prostatectomy or SOC arms. Fourteen days after the last treatment, prostate glands will be harvested at radical prostatectomy, and prostate tissue will be examined for pathologic response and secondary pharmacodynamic/immunologic endpoints as described herein. Pre-treatment, on-treatment, and post-treatment biomarkers of response and resistance will be collected including: plasma, PBMC. Repeat PSMA scan will be obtained prior to radical prostatectomy. Follow-up evaluation for adverse events will occur 30 and 90 days after surgery. Patients will then be followed by the patient's urologists/oncologists according to standard institutional practices but will require PSA evaluations every 3 (±1) months during year 1 and every 6 (±2) months during years 2-3.

-
Radical prostatectomy has been scheduled
-
Age ≥18 years
-
ECOG performance status 0-1, or Karnofsky score ≥ 70% (see Appendix A)
-
Adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function:
- WBC >3,000 cells/mm3

- Platelet count >100,000 cells/mm3
- Serum creatinine <1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Serum bilirubin <1.5 × ULN
- ALT <3 × ULN
- AST <3 × ULN
- Alkaline phosphatase <3 × ULN
-
The etiology of abnormal bilirubin and transaminase levels should be evaluated prior to study entry.
-
Willingness to provide written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for the release of personal health information, and the ability to comply with the study requirements (note: HIPAA authorization will be included in the informed consent)
-
Willingness to use barrier contraception from the time of first dose of Enoblituzumab (MGA271) until the time of prostatectomy.
To be eligible for this study, patients should not meet any of the following criteria:
- Presence of known lymph node involvement on CT (N1 by PSMA allowed with up to 3 LNs each ≤1 cm) or distant metastases by CT and NM bone scan
- Other histologic types of prostate cancers such as ductal, sarcomatous, lymphoma, small cell, and neuroendocrine tumors
- Prior radiation therapy, hormonal therapy, biologic therapy, or chemotherapy for prostate cancer
- Prior immunotherapy/vaccine therapy for prostate cancer
- Prior use of experimental agents for prostate cancer
- Concomitant treatment with other hormonal therapy or 5α-reductase inhibitors
- Current use of systemic corticosteroids or use of systemic corticosteroids within 4 weeks of enrollment (inhaled corticosteroids for asthma or COPD are permitted as are other non-systemic steroids such as topical corticosteroids)
- History or presence of autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppression (including but not limited to: inflammatory bowel disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, vasculitis, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, multiple sclerosis, hemolytic anemia, Sjögren syndrome, and sarcoidosis)
- History of malignancy within the last 3 years, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancers and superficial bladder cancer
- Uncontrolled major active infectious, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic, or psychiatric illnesses that would make the patient a poor study candidate
- Known prior or current history of HIV and/or hepatitis B/C, with the exception of patients who have been successfully treated for hepatitis B/C (i.e. documented confirmation of cure at least 6 months after initial treatment).

Group Intervention Description Standard of Care Standard of Care Patients will undergo standard of care radical prostatectomy within 4-8 weeks of randomization. Enoblituzumab Enoblituzumab Men with localized intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer will be given neoadjuvant Enoblituzumab 15mg/kg IV every 2 weeks for 12 weeks, followed by a radical prostatectomy on day 84, with follow-up visits 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, and 9 months post-prostatectomy. PSA values will be tracked for 3 years post-prostatectomy.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Recurrence-free survival (RFS) 3 years post-prostatectomy Number of participants with RFS, defined as from randomization to any metastasis events, pelvic lymph node recurrence, detectable prostate-specific antigen (PSA) (PSA \>= 0.2 ng/mL, confirmed by a second PSA of the same level or higher), or start of salvage or adjuvant therapy based on PSA criteria of 0.1 ng/mL or higher, or death for any cause, whichever occurs first.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall survival 5 years post-prostatectomy Time from randomization to death by any cause or date last known alive.
Metastasis-free survival 5 years post-prostatectomy Measured by the number of participants who achieve metastasis-free survival, defined as from randomization to date of first evidence of recorded metastases confirmed by imaging or histologic evidence, or death from any cause, or is censored at the date of last follow-up known without metastasis
Recurrence free survival 3 years from randomization Measured by the number of participants who have not progressed at 36 months after randomization.
Time to PSA recurrence 5 years post-prostatectomy Time from randomization to detectable prostate-specific antigen (PSA) (PSA \>= 0.2 ng/mL, confirmed by a second PSA of the same level or higher
PSA response 3 months post-prostatectomy. Undetectable PSA (\<0.1 ng/mL) at 3 months after prostatectomy.

Pathological complete responses (pCR) Day 84 Number of participants who achieve pCR, defined as absence of tumor identification on standard histological analysis of resected prostate specimens.
Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events 90 days post-prostatectomy Measured by the number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0
Assess the immune response (CD8 T cell infiltration into the tumor / peritumoral area) to enoblituzumab versus SOC Day 84 Measured by the number of participants with CD8 T cell infiltration into the tumor / peritumoral area treated with enoblituzumab versus standard of care.
Change in number of participants with change in Gleason grade group change Baseline and Day 84 Number of participants with change in Gleason grade group from pre-treatment biopsy vs. post-treatment biopsy. "Downgrade" refers to a net grade group change less than zero, "upgrade" refers to net grade group change more than zero, and "no change" refers to stable Gleason grade group. Gleason grade groups are defined as grade group 1 (Gleason score ≤ 6), grade group 2 (Gleason score 3+4=7), grade group 3 (Gleason score 4+3=7), grade group 4 (Gleason score 8), and grade group 5 (Gleason scores 9-10).The lower the grade group, the better the outcome.
