Computed Tomography-Guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy With Intrafraction Motion Monitoring for the Treatment of Localized Prostate Cancer, ILLUSION Trial
Description

This clinical trial studies the side effects of computed tomography (CT)-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with intrafraction motion monitoring and to see how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). In CT-guided SBRT, x-ray-based imaging and cone-beam CTs are used to define and localize the area to be treated with SBRT. SBRT is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position a patient and precisely deliver radiation to tumors in the body (except the brain). The total dose of radiation is divided into smaller doses given over several days. This type of radiation therapy helps spare normal tissue. A recent randomized trial showed that while SBRT is associated with less urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction than complete surgical removal of the prostate, there are more urinary irritative side effects and more bowel side effects than with surgery. One source of uncertainty in SBRT that may contribute to genitourinary (GU) and gastrointestinal (GI) side effects is the necessity of treating a "margin" of volume around the prostate to account for its movement during SBRT. Intrafraction motion monitoring is any technique or system designed to track the movement of the body and target during fractions of external beam radiation to keep the beam on target. This allows for the patient to be repositioned, if needed, to ensure delivery of the SBRT to only the planned treatment area. CT-guided SBRT with intrafraction motion monitoring may lower GU and GI side effects by allowing tighter margins, as has been demonstrated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided SBRT.

RCT of NLP-Based Feedback for Improving SDM in Men with Localized Prostate Cancer
Description

The purpose of the research is to assess the impact of a natural language processing + artificial intelligence (NLP+AI)-based risk communication feedback system to improve quality of risk communication of key tradeoffs during prostate cancer consultations among physicians and to improve patient decision making. In this cluster randomized trial, an evaluable 220 patients with newly diagnosed clinically localized prostate cancer will be cluster randomized within an evaluable 22 physicians to: 1. a control arm, in which patients will receive standard of care treatment consultations along with AUA-endorsed educational materials on treatment risks and benefits (for patients) and on SDM (for physicians) or 2. an experimental arm, in which patients and participating physicians will receive NLP+AI-based feedback on what was said about key tradeoffs within approximately 72 hours of the consultation to assist with decision making. Physicians will additionally be provided with grading of their risk communication for each visit based on an a priori defined framework for quality of risk communication and recommendations for improvement. In both study arms, there will be an audio-recorded follow-up phone or video call between the physician and patient to allow for further discussion of risk and clarifying any areas of ambiguity, which will be qualitatively analyzed to see if areas of poor communication were rectified. After the follow-up phone call, patients and participating physicians will be asked to complete a very brief survey about their experience. The study plans to test whether receiving NLP+AI-based feedback improves decisional conflict, shared decision making, and appropriateness of treatment choice over the standard of care in patients undergoing treatment consultations for prostate cancer. Study staff will also test whether providing feedback and grading of risk communication to physicians affects quality of physician risk communication, since providing feedback will promote more accountability for the quality of information provided to patients. The study will also analyze data from the control arm of the randomized controlled trial to understand variation in risk communication of key tradeoffs in relevant subgroups of tumor risk (low-, intermediate-, and high-risk), provider specialty (Urology, Radiation Oncology, Medical Oncology), and patient sociodemographics.

Single Patient Compassionate Use of X-PACT in Salvage Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Description

Due to the subject's lack of conventional treatment options, a treatment plan using X-PACT administered intra-tumorally is proposed. X-PACT (X-ray Psoralen Activated Cancer Therapy) is comprised of a phosphor device (an energy modulation agent), methoxsalen sterile solution (a psoralen), X-ray energy and represents a potential new approach for the treatment of solid tumors. Methoxsalen is a psoralen found in the seeds of the Ammi majus (Umbelliferae) plant. Importantly, methoxsalen (whether formulated as the sterile solution \[Uvadex®\] or as a hard gelatin capsule \[8-MOP®\]) can promote a strong long-term clinical response, as observed in the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) utilizing extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) and is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration \[US FDA\] for this indication. In ECP, malignant CTCL cells are irradiated with UVA light in the presence of methoxsalen and then re-administered to the patient. X-PACT may offer the potential for local control of primary or metastatic disease via administration of the combination product of methoxsalen and powerful energy converters (Phosphors) when activated by x-ray beam. In addition, there is numerous data in support of an immunogenic role for activated methoxsalen. The cytotoxic and immunogenic effects of psoralens are often attributed to psoralen mediated photo-adduct DNA damage \[1\]. A principle mechanism underlying the long term immunogenic clinical response likely derives from psoralen induced tumor cell cytotoxicity and uptake of the apoptotic cells by immature dendritic cells, in the presence of inflammatory cytokines \[2, 3 4, 5\]. However, photochemical modification of proteins and other cellular components can also impact the antigenicity and potential immunogenicity of treated cells \[6\]. The diversity and potency of psoralen application is further illustrated by recent success using psoralen in the development of virus vaccines \[7\]. The immunogenic activity of methoxsalen supports a potential abscopal effect for X-PACT particularly as it incorporates both radiation and an immunotherapeutic.

An Investigational Scan (rhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT) for Detecting Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer, ENLIGHTEN Trial
Description

This phase II trial evaluates an imaging technique (rhPSMA-7.3 positron emission tomography \[PET\]/computed tomography \[CT\]) for detecting prostate cancer in patients who have increasing prostate-specific antigen levels following prior treatment (biochemical recurrence) but who were prostate specific membrane antigen negative on their most recent PET scan. Contrast agents like rhPSMA-7.3 (also called POSLUMA) circulate in the blood until they find their intended target. Once they are taken up by the target tumor cells, they can be visualized using PET/CT cameras. A PET scan is a procedure in which a small amount of radioactive tracer (in this case rhPSMA-7.3) is injected into a vein, and a scanner is used to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where the tracer is taken up. Because tumor cells often take up more tracer than normal cells, the pictures can be used to find tumor cells in the body. A CT scan is a procedure that uses a computer linked to an x-ray machine to make a series of detailed pictures of areas inside the body. The pictures are taken from different angles and are used to create 3-dimensional views of tissues and organs. Combining a PET scan with a CT scan can help make the image easier to interpret. PET/CT scans are hybrid scanners that combine both modalities into a single scan during the same examination. The researchers want to determine whether the rhPSMA7.3 PET/CT scan is useful for detecting biochemically recurrent prostate cancer in patients who were negative on prior non-POSLUMA PET imaging.

Older Men's Decision Making About Active Surveillance for Prostate Cancer - Aim 3: Decision Aid Efficacy Testing
Description

This protocol describes pilot testing of an educational shared decision-making intervention to help men with localized prostate cancer make decisions with their health care providers about if and when to de-escalate surveillance testing. The project is important because for many patients their cancer does not progress to the point of needed curative treatment or their health status changes such that they are no longer good candidates for treatment. For these men, de-escalating ongoing surveillance (e.g., fewer biopsies or imaging studies) is a reasonable option.

A Phase I Trial of 61Cu-NODAGA-PSMA for Patients with Prostate Cancer
Description

Molecular Imaging (MI) uses tracers which emit radiation to provide clinically valuable imaging for patient with cancer. Most current MI agents utilize Fluorine 18 or Gallium 68 as the positron emitter for PET imaging. However, these isotopes have short half-lives which limit the geographic distribution range of tracers made with these isotopes. Copper 61 (61Cu) has a 3.3 hour half-life, which would allow for far greater distribution range following radiotracer production. This phase I trial will test the safety and effectiveness of a novel MI radiotracer that uses 61Cu as its positron emitting isotope and targets Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) for imaging prostate cancer. A successful trial will provide the ability to advance this novel 61Cu-NODAGA-PSMA radioisotope into phase II trials, as well as open a new paradigm into the production of MI radioisotopes with 61Cu.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy for the Treatment of Low Testosterone in Hypogonadal Men With Localized Prostate Cancer on Active Surveillance
Description

This phase IV trial studies the effects of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) on treatment outcomes in hypogonadal men with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized) and who are on active surveillance (AS). AS in prostate cancer involves closely watching the patient's condition through regular physical exams and blood tests, but not giving treatment unless there are changes in test results. It can be a practical alternative to treatment in localized prostate cancer. Hypogonadal men have low testosterone associated with symptoms such as low libido and erectile problems. TRT can be used to treat hypogonadism by increasing testosterone levels, which may improve associated symptoms. TRT is often not used in men with prostate cancer due to concerns it may lead to the cancer growing or spreading. This may lead hypogonadal men to have a poor quality of life or to discontinue AS. TRT may improve treatment and quality of life outcomes in hypogonadal men with localized prostate cancer on active surveillance.

Novel ACK1 Inhibitor (R)-9b in Patients with Prostate Cancer
Description

TITLE: Phase 1 First in Human Trial to Assess Safety and Tolerability of the Novel ACK1 Inhibitor (R)-9bMS in Patients with Prostate Cancer (PHAROS) STUDY DESCRIPTION: Prostate cancer (PC) patients receive androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), but recalcitrant disease recurs typically within 2-3 years, referred to as the Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC). Androgen receptor (AR) targeted therapies, such as Enzalutamide (Enz) or Abiraterone (Abi), are FDA-approved therapeutics for CRPC patients. However, virtually all patients develop resistance. A non-receptor tyrosine kinase, ACK1 act as a novel epigenetic modifier in prostate tumors, regulating AR and its splice variant, AR-V7 expression. A new class of ACK1 small molecule inhibitor, (R)-9bMS, was developed that exhibited excellent drug-like properties. Treatment with (R)-9bMS suppressed Abi and Enz-resistant tumor growth in mice. Robust immune activation against prostate tumors was also reflected in mice treated with ACK1 inhibitor, (R)-9bMS. Importantly (R)-9bMS functionally reinvigorated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of CRPC patients to mount a robust immune response against CRPC organoids. Collectively, these data indicate that the ACK1 inhibitor, (R)-9bMS, fulfills a unique niche, wherein it not only suppressed AR/AR-V7 within the tumor milieu, but also activated host immune system by overcoming CSK-restrained LCK activity, to mount a robust 'dual' anti-tumor response. OBJECTIVES: Primary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of (R)-9bMS in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Secondary Objectives: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of (R)-9bMS in patients with CRPC. To determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of (R)-9bMS in patients after single and multiple dose oral administration. To assess clinical outcomes and anti-tumor activity in patients treated with (R)-9bMS. ENDPOINTS: Primary Endpoint: Frequency of dose-limiting toxicities and toxicity and severe AEs per CTCAE v 5.0. Secondary Endpoints: * RP2D (recommended phase 2 dose) * PK (pharmacokinetics) * PSA responses * Duration of responses * ORR (objective response rate) * OS (overall survival) * PFS (progression free survival) * DSS (disease specific survival) * Toxicity and severe AEs per CTCAE v 5.0 STUDY POPULATION: Approximately 18-30 adult patients with a histologic or cytologic diagnosis of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer will be enrolled. PHASE: Phase I DESCRIPTION OF SITES: This study will be open to enrollment at the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center DESCRIPTION OF STUDY INERVENTION: (R)-9bMS will be taken by mouth twice daily until completion of 12 cycles, progression or intolerance STUDY DURATION: 12 months for enrollment + 12 months treatment + 12 months follow-up + 12 months for data analysis = 48 months.
