Two-Dose Level Evaluation of NX-1207 for the Treatment of Low Risk, Localized (T1c) Prostate Cancer

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2015-10-21
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Male

Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single injection of NX-1207 for the treatment of biopsy-confirmed low risk localized (T1c) prostate cancer in patients currently undergoing active surveillance. Study participants currently on active surveillance will be randomized either to treatment with a single intraprostatic injection of NX-1207 (2.5 mg or 15 mg) followed by active surveillance or to no treatment (continued active surveillance). Blinded efficacy evaluation will be by a second post-treatment prostate biopsy.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No
