Trial Summary

This randomized phase II trial studies how well PROSTVAC (prostate-specific antigen [PSA]-TRICOM) works in stimulating immune responses in patients with prostate cancer undergoing active surveillance to prevent the prostate cancer from getting worse.

Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

• ARM I: Patients receive PROSTVAC subcutaneously (SC) at baseline and on days 14, 28, 56, 84, 112, and 140.
• ARM II: Patients receive placebo SC at baseline and on days 14, 28, 56, 84, 112, and 140.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days and then at 6 months.

Target Enrollment: 150

Actual Enrollment: 154

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Biopsy-proven (consisting of ≥ 10 tissue cores) adenocarcinoma of the prostate with cancer present in at least one biopsy core, either random or targeted, in the most recent biopsy
  • All prior biopsies must meet the following: ≤ 50% of the total number of random biopsy cores positive for cancer
  • Gleason score ≤ (3+4)
• Clinical stage ≤ T2a by digital rectal exam (DRE)
• Biopsies performed at outside institutions should have Gleason score confirmed at the study site by a genitourinary (GU) pathologist to ensure eligibility
• Pre-intervention biopsy tissue (most proximal to enrollment) with sufficient tumor tissue to cut 5-10 unstained slides confirmed to be available upon request
• Screening serum PSA < 20 ng/mL; for men treated with 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (e.g., finasteride, dutasteride), PSA needs to be < 10 ng/mL
• Neutrophil count ≥ 1,200/mm^3 (≥ 1.2 k/uL)
• Stable platelet count ≥ 75,000/mm^3 (≥ 75 k/uL)
• Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 mg/dL (or ≤ 3.0 mg/dL for patients with Gilbert's syndrome)

• Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN
• Karnofsky ≥ 70%
• Must agree to use medically acceptable barrier and/or chemical method of contraception while on study and for at least one month following the last vaccine injection; should a participant's partner become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while the participant is participating in this study, the study physician should be informed immediately; in the event a participant's partner becomes pregnant, the study sponsor may request additional information regarding the course of the pregnancy and if the pregnancy is carried to term, the birth of the child (i.e., the outcome of the pregnancy)

  • any prior episode, at any time, extensive enough or severe enough as to require systemic treatment
• Previous adverse reactions to smallpox vaccination
• Unable to avoid close contact or household contact with the following high-risk individuals for three weeks after the day 1 vaccination or until the vaccination site heals completely: (a) children ≤ 3 years of age, (b) pregnant or nursing women, (c) individuals with prior or concurrent extensive eczema or other eczemoid skin disorders, (d) individuals with other acute, chronic, or exfoliative skin condition, or (e) immunocompromised or immunosuppressed persons (by disease or therapy)
• Participants may not be receiving any other investigational agents

Schema

The Schema is a timeline of the study. It indicates start/end points, visits expected, major testing to be done, and any other information that is crucial to understanding how the study was completed.

Results/Findings:

The PROSTVAC/EV vaccination was well tolerated. All except one participant completed the vaccination series. Changes in CD4 or CD8 density in biopsy tumor tissue did not differ between the PROSTVAC and EV arms. The proportions of patients with Gleason upgrading to grade group 3 after treatment was similar between the arms. There were no differences in postvaccination peripheral T-cell responses or the PSA change from baseline to 6-mo post-treatment follow-up between the groups.
