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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 is testing a new treatment called TmPSMA-02 for men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer that has progressed after standard therapies. The treatment uses the patient's own immune cells (T cells) that are genetically modified to recognize and attack prostate cancer cells while also resisting the tumor's attempts to shut them down. Up to 30 participants will receive the cells in increasing doses to find the safest dose and to see if the therapy can shrink tumors or slow the disease.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
TmPSMA-02 CAR T cells (a patient's own immune cells modified to target prostate cancer cells and resist tumor defenses)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard therapies.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 30 participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. There are risks of serious side effects from the cell therapy, and the approach may not work for most patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Signed, written informed consent 2. Adult participants ≥ 18 years of age 3. Metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) 4. Castrate levels of testosterone (\<50 ng/dL) with/without the use of androgen-deprivation therapy 5. Received at least one prior standard therapy for systemic treatment in the mCRPC setting, including at least one second generation androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (e.g., enzalutamine, apalutamide, darolutamide, or abiraterone) or a taxane-based regimen (e.g., docetaxel, cabazitaxel, etc). 6. Adequate organ function within 4 weeks of eligibility confirmation by a physician-investigator defined as: 1. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dl or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 cc/min per the Cockcroft-Gault Equation; Patient must not be on dialysis 2. ALT/AST ≤ 3 x ULN 3. Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 mg/dL, unless the subject has Gilbert's syndrome (if so, serum total bilirubin must be ≤3.0 mg/dL) 4. Left Ventricle Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≥ 45% confirmed by ECHO 5. Must have a minimum level of pulmonary reserve defined as ≤ Grade 1 dyspnea and pulse oxygen \> 92% on room air 7. Patients must have adequate hematologic reserve within 4 weeks of eligibility confirmation by a physician-investigator and must not be dependent on transfusions to maintain these hematologic parameters. Adequate hematologic reserve is defined as: 1. Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL 2. Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1000/μL 3. Platelet count ≥ 75,000/μL 8. ECOG Performance Status that is either 0 or 1. 9. Patients who have not undergone bilateral orchiectomy must be able to continue GnRH therapy during the study. 10. Participants of reproductive potential must agree to use acceptable birth control methods, as described in the protocol. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Active hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection 2. Any other active, uncontrolled infection 3. Class III/IV cardiovascular disability according to the New York Heart Association Classification. 4. Severe, active co-morbidity that in the opinion of the physician-investigator would preclude participation in the study. 5. Active invasive cancer, other than the proposed cancer included in the study, within 2 years prior to eligibility confirmation by a physician-investigator. \[Note: non-invasive cancers treated with curative intent (e.g., non-melanoma skin cancer) may still be eligible\]. 6. Patients requiring chronic treatment systemic steroids or immunosuppressant medications. Low-dose physiologic replacement therapy with corticosteroids equivalent to prednisone 10 mg/day or lower, topical steroids and inhaled steroids are acceptable. For additional details regarding use of steroid and immunosuppressant medications, please see Section 5.6. 7. Prior treatment with autologous T-cell therapy, with the exception of Sipuleucel-T. 8. Prior allogeneic stem cell transplant. 9. Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppressive treatment equivalent to ≥ 10mg of prednisone. Patients with autoimmune neurologic diseases (such as MS) will be excluded. 10. History of allergy or hypersensitivity to study product excipients (human serum albumin, DMSO, and Dextran 40).
