IS-002 Phase 2 Prostate Cancer Study

Phase 2 randomized controlled multi-center study of IS-002, in conjunction with near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging, for identification of prostate cancer during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with (extended) pelvic lymph node dissection ((e)PLND) using the da Vinci® X/Xi Surgical System with Firefly® Fluorescence Imaging.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subjects aged 18 to 75.
  • Subject has a confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate as defined by (histo-) pathology.
  • Subject has CAPRA ≥6; or ≥T3 disease on imaging (TRUS and/or MRI); or a Gleason sum score ≥8; or regional lymphadenopathy suspicious for nodal metastases on imaging.
  • Subject is scheduled to undergo robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with (extended) pelvic lymph node dissection ((e)PLND) using a da Vinci® X/Xi Surgical System equipped with Firefly® Fluorescence Imaging.
  • Subject is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Subject can comply with the study procedures and study visits and understands an informed consent document.

Exclusion criteria

  • Subject has known bone metastasis.
  • Subject has known active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
  • Subject has a known history of acute or chronic liver or kidney disease.
  • Renal function at screening: i. Creatinine clearance: <50 mL/min as determined using the Cockcroft-Gault formula ii. Albumin: <LLN
  • Hepatic function at screening: i. AST and/or ALT: >2.5x ULN ii. Total Bilirubin (serum): >1.5x ULN
  • Subject has received neo-adjuvant therapy, radiation therapy, focal ablation therapy, hormonal therapy, or androgen deprivation therapy within the last 4 months.
  • Subject is currently receiving an investigational therapeutic agent; or has participated in a study of an investigational therapeutic agent within the past 6 months prior to the day of IS-002 infusion; or is involved in a significant risk investigational device study within the past 6 months prior to the day of IS-002 infusion.
  • Subject has any other condition or personal circumstance that, in the judgment of the site Investigator, might interfere with the collection of complete quality data or represents an unacceptable safety profile.

Treatment and study plan

Administration of IS-002

Drug

Intravenous administration of IS-002 approximately 24 hours prior to surgery

Firefly fluorescent imaging

Device

Near-infrared fluorescence imaging using Firefly technology will allow fluorescence imaging of IS-002

robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection

Procedure

Subject will undergo robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection

Other names: RARP

Primary outcomes

  1. The proportion of subjects with ≥1 positive surgical margins (PSMs) on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.

    Time frame: Within 3 months post-surgery

    The proportion of subjects with ≥1 PSMs on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.

  2. The mean number of positive surgical margins (PSMs) on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.

    Time frame: Within 3 months post-surgery

    The mean number of PSMs on final histopathologic assessment in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Diagnostic performance of IS-002 fluorescence

    Time frame: Up to 1 year post-surgery

    The key secondary outcome is the determination of false-positive, true-positive, false-negative and true-negatives rates.

  2. Safety: Adverse event assessment

    Time frame: Up to 1 year post-surgery

    Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events from time of IS-002 administration through study exit using CTCAE v5.0

  3. Pharmacokinetics: Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)

    Time frame: Up to 24 hours post-IS-002 administration

    Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero to the time of the last measurable concentration as calculated by linear up/log down trapezoidal method (AUC0-last)

  4. Time to biochemical recurrence (BCR)

    Time frame: Up to 1 year post-surgery

    Time to BCR in the Intervention arm and the Control arm. BCR is defined a PSA level >0.1 ng/mL as determined by an ultrasensitive PSA assay.

  5. Time to secondary treatment initiation

    Time frame: Up to 1 year post-surgery

    Time to secondary treatment(s) for prostate cancer in the Intervention arm and the Control arm.

  6. Number of intraoperative fluorescent lymph nodes that are tumor positive that would not have been resected if the surgeon would have had access to white light imaging only

    Time frame: Up to 3 months post surgery

    In the Intervention arm, the number of intraoperative fluorescent lymph nodes, per subject and per lymph node basin, that are tumor positive that would not have been resected if the surgeon would have had access to white light imaging only.
