NCT ID NCT07240857

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new treatment for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), a type that no longer responds to standard hormone therapy. Researchers are injecting specially engineered immune cells (CAR-T cells) directly into the prostate or tumor site, after a short course of chemotherapy. The study will enroll 18 people to check if the treatment is safe and whether it can lower PSA levels, a marker of prostate cancer activity.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ACT#001-PSMA CAR-T cells
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial (18 people) focused mainly on safety. The treatment may not shrink tumors or improve survival, and there are risks from chemotherapy and CAR-T cell side effects.
