Purpose

Single center, single-arm, open-label, 60-month follow-up phase IIb clinical trial. Men with localized prostate cancer will receive TOOKAD® Soluble VTP under general anesthesia. To evaluate the absence of biopsy detectable Gleason grade 4 or 5 prostate cancer tumors anywhere in the prostate gland on 12-month, post-treatment biopsy following TOOKAD® Soluble-VTP in men with prostate cancer Gleason score 7(3+4).

Detailed Description

      This is a single center, single-arm, open-label, 60-month follow-up phase IIb clinical trial.
      The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the absence of biopsy detectable Gleason
      grade 4 or 5 prostate cancer tumors anywhere in the prostate gland on 12-month,
      post-treatment biopsy following TOOKAD® Soluble-VTP. Men with Gleason score 7 (3+4) prostate
      cancer on one half of the prostate will receive TOOKAD® Soluble VTP under general anesthesia.
      Treatment will consist in hemiablation procedure designed to destroy the lobe of the prostate
      gland that contains the Gleason score 7 (3+4) cancer. Afterwards, patients will be followed
      for 5 years (60 months) with clinical evaluation, questionnaires on QOL, erectile and urinary
      functions, and PSA testing. In addition, treatment outcomes will be assessed based on
      prostate biopsy results at 3, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months after the TOOKAD® Soluble
      treatment. All patients will undergo biopsy at 3 and 12 months. If the Month 3 biopsy is
      positive for any cancer, patients will be allowed a single re-treatment by TOOKAD® Soluble
      VTP to one or both lobes.
