Overview
The purpose of this study is to see whether combining 2141-V11 with various standard treatments is an effective treatment approach for prostate cancer. 2141-V11 works by activating the immune system to find and kill cancer cells. Researchers will look at whether this treatment approach is able to completely get rid of cancer in participants, and they will check for the presence of minimal residual disease (MRD) in participants. MRD is a small number of cancer cells that can be detected in the body after treatment.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent and Authorization for Use and Release of Health and Research Study Information (HIPAA authorization) NOTE: HIPAA authorization may be either included in the informed consent or obtained separately
- Male aged 18 years and above
- Serum testosterone of ≥150 ng/dL (Cohorts B and C) except for patients currently on ADT.
- Adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function, as evidenced within 28 days prior to treatment start by:
ANC ≥1500/µl (≥1000/µl if benign ethnic neutropenia) Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL Platelet count
≥100,000/µl Creatinine Clearance Measure by Cockcroft-Gault Formula >45 mL/min Total
Bilirubin ≤ 1.8 mg/dl (Note: In participants with Gilbert's syndrome, if total bilirubin is
1.8 mg/dL, measure direct and indirect bilirubin and if direct bilirubin is ≤1.5 × ULN,
participant may be eligible) SGOT (AST) ≤ 92.5 U/L SGPT (ALT) ≤ 137 U/L
- Participants must have a clinical T stage documented by the treating urologist/medical
oncologist within 90 days prior to treatment start using the 8th edition American
Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system, recorded as the urologist's/medical
oncologist's best clinical assessment of extent of local disease by digital rectal
examination and/or available imaging studies such as transrectal ultrasound, CT scan,
and/or MRI. (Applicable to Cohorts A, B and C).
- The primary tumor must be considered safely removable with gross negative margins
based on initial imaging as determined by a urologist and documented as such.
- Agrees to use a condom (even men with vasectomies) and another effective method of
birth control if he is having sex with a woman of childbearing potential or agrees to
use a condom if he is having sex with a woman who is pregnant while on study drug and
for 3 months following the last dose of study drug. Must also agree not to donate
sperm during the study and for 3 months after receiving the last dose of study drug.
- Evidence of a targetable prostate lesion on prostate magnetic resonance imaging scan
Exclusion Criteria:
Participants that meet any of the criteria listed below will not be eligible for study
entry:
- Prior prostate surgery, pelvic lymph node dissection, radiation therapy, or focal
therapy as a treatment for prostate cancer or benign prostatic disease.
- Current ADT with GnRH antagonist/agonist and/or ARSI initiated >8 weeks prior to
planned Cycle 1 of 2141-V11.
- Prior cytotoxic chemotherapy for prostate cancer
- Prior experimental therapy for prostate cancer within 30 days of planned Cycle 1 of
2141-V11.
- Known brain, liver, lung or other visceral metastasis (with the exception of
retroperitoneal and / or pelvic nodal metastases as per inclusion criteria)
- Prior prostate cancer metastasis-directed therapies other than described above.
- Currently active second malignancy or past medical history of malignancies diagnosed
within the last 5 years that require active therapy and/or in remission with life
expectancy of < 5 years, with the exception of resected non-melanoma skin cancers,
non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, stage I head and neck cancer, or stage I
colorectal cancer.
- Significant medical condition other than cancer, that would prevent consistent and
compliant participation in the study that would, in the opinion of the investigator,
make this protocol unreasonably hazardous including but not limited to:
- Any medical condition requiring a higher dose of corticosteroid than 5 mg
prednisone/prednisolone once daily
- Active infection requiring systemic therapy
- History of gastrointestinal disorders (medical disorders or extensive surgery)
that may interfere with the absorption of the study agents
- Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure (BP) ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic
BP ≥ 95 mmHg); participants with a history of hypertension are allowed provided
blood pressure is controlled by anti-hypertensive treatment (systolic BP <160
mmHg or diastolic BP <95 mmHg)
- Acute or chronic hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. (Hepatitis B and C testing
are not mandatory)
- Presence of hepatitis B surface antibody is acceptable
- Baseline moderate and severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Class B & C)
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants with 1 or more of the
following:
- Not receiving highly active anti-retroviral therapy.
- A change in anti-retroviral therapy within 6 months of the start of screening (except
if, after consultation with the principal investigator (PI) / sponsor, a change is
made to avoid a potential drug-drug interaction with the study drug).
- Receiving anti-retroviral therapy that may interfere with the study drug(s) (consult
the PI / sponsor for review of medication prior to enrollment).
- CD4 count < 350 cell/mm3 at screening.
- An acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-defining opportunistic infection within 6 months
of the start of screening.
- HIV testing is not mandatory
- History of pituitary or adrenal dysfunction
- Clinically significant heart disease as evidenced by myocardial infarction, or
arterial thrombotic events in the past 6 months, severe or unstable angina, or

ejection fraction measurement of < 50% at baseline, or clinically significant
ventricular arrhythmias within 6 months prior to treatment start.
