Brief summary

This Phase II trial will enroll approximately 180 adult male patients with an earlier histologic diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma and a biochemical recurrence (BCR) within 3 years of radical prostatectomy (RP) or definitive RT and no distant metastasis or locoregional recurrence. The trial is a randomized placebo-controlled double-blind study of a peptide cancer vaccine (RV001V).

Interventions

BIOLOGICALRV001V

RV001V consists of the peptide RV001 and the adjuvant Montanide ISA 51. RV001 Vaccine 0.1 mg/mL (RV001V).

OTHERPlacebo

Placebo consist of the vaccine vehicle and the adjuvant Montanide ISA 51. Placebo

Inclusion criteria

Main Inclusion Criteria: * Biochemical recurrence (BCR) within 3 years of radical prostatectomy (RP) or definitive RT and no distant metastasis by standard CT imaging and bone scintigraphy, or locoregional recurrence (including lymph nodes) assessed by CT or multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and confirmed with negative biopsy in case of prior RT. * In case of BCR after RP all the following criteria should apply: a. PSA ≥0.2 ng/mL, b. PSA Doubling Time (PSADT) \>3 months and \<12 months * In case of BCR after RT all the following criteria should apply: a. PSA \>nadir + 2 ng/mL, b. PSADT \>3 months and \<12 months * ECOG performance status ≤2. * Laboratory values obtained ≤30 days prior to first vaccination: Hemoglobin ≥5.6 mmol/L; Absolute granulocyte count ≥1.5 x 109 /L, Platelets ≥100 x 109 /L., Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN). * Creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN. * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤2.5 x ULN. Main

Exclusion criteria

* Patients who are receiving androgen-deprivation therapy or considered a candidate for immediate anti-androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) as judged by the investigator. * Patients who have received prior ADT are not eligible with the exception of those that received ADT ≤36 months in duration and ≥9 months before randomization and administered only in the neoadjuvant/adjuvant setting. * Patient is planned for salvage therapy with RT or radical prostatectomy. * Castrate level of serum testosterone \<50 ng/dL at screening. * PSA \>10 ng/mL

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time to PSA progressionUp to 3 yearsTime to PSA progression is defined as the time from randomization to doubling of PSA from the baseline value. The time to doubling will be estimated from a log-linear regression of PSA values.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Safety by frequency and severity of adverse events (AEs)Up to 16 monthsThe numbers and proportions of patients with any treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), and any serious TEAE will be summarized
Time to initiation of a subsequent antineoplastic therapyUp to 3 years
Proportion of patients showing a PSA response from baselineUp to 3 years
Disease-free survival (DFS)Up to 3 yearstime from randomization to documented clinical recurrence (distant or local), or death from any cause, censoring at date of last follow-up (FU)
