Description:
Targeted Microwave Tissue Coagulation
Arm group label:
Microwave Tissue Coagulation Arm
Other name:
AFM-712
Summary:
This clinical trial is to provide a minimally invasive treatment option in which the
targeted prostate cancer tissue is killed by microwave only in the specific area of
cancer "that should be treated for saving of life," while leaving a portion of the normal
prostate tissue that is not cancerous. This treatment is named "focal therapy" for
"clinically localized prostate cancer." As this new treatment aims to treat only the
specific prostatic area of cancer, it is different from the invasive conventional
treatment to remove the entire prostate gland. The goal is both to control the known
cancer by treating only the cancerous area and to maintain the quality of life (QOL) by
leaving the other normal prostate tissue and its surrounding organs intact, resulting in
the prevention of urinary leakage and sexual dysfunction as complications.
Detailed description:
This trial will provide ultrasound-guided targeted microwave tissue coagulation of known
cancer lesions in patients diagnosed with clinically localized prostate cancer, and it
will assess efficacy and safety endpoints for up to six months post-operatively. This
trial will also assess patient quality of life (QOL).
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Patients who have a single lesion of PI-RADS category 3 or 4 lesion on MRI image at
enrollment and which is proved as a Gleason score 7 or 8 on histopathology of the
prostate needle biopsy at enrollment; or, patients who have a single lesion of
PI-RADS category 4 or 5 lesion on MRI image at enrollment and which is proved as a
Gleason score 6 or 7 on histopathology of the prostate needle biopsy at enrollment
2. Patients with prostate cancer that is clinical stage T2c or lower (T1a-T2cN0M0)
according to the TNM Classification as determined during enrollment
3. Patients between the ages of 20 and 85 when providing consent to participate in this
trial
4. Patients from whom consent is obtained prior to enrollment in this trial
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Patients to have a lesion identified as PI-RADS category 4 or 5 on MRI images at
enrollment and which is a diameter of less than 10 mm and Gleason score of 6 on the
histopathology of the prostate needle biopsy at enrollment (the lesion is referred
to as 'non-target lesions') (the diameter of the lesion is defined as the longer one
of the lesion diameter identified on MRI images at enrollment or the tumor length as
measured on histopathology of prostate needle biopsy)
2. Patients to have 4 or more non-target lesions (non-target lesions are defined as the
lesions defined in exclusion criterion 1, or lesions with PI-RADS category 3 on MRI
image at enrollment and Gleason score 6 on biopsy at enrollment)
3. Patients to have a lesion with PI-RADS category 5 on MRI image at enrollment and
Gleason score 8 on histopathology of prostate needle biopsy at enrollment (the
lesion is referred 'excluded lesions')
4. Patients with a serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level over 20 ng/ml during
enrollment
5. Patients in whom the distance from the target prostate cancer lesion to the rectum
is 10 mm or less on MRI images (coronal or sagittal) obtained during enrollment
6. Patients who have received an antiandrogen for benign prostatic hyperplasia prior to
enrollment
7. Patients who have received an antiandrogen for benign prostatic hyperplasia prior to
enrollment
8. Patients who have undergone surgery, drug therapy, or radiation therapy for prostate
cancer prior to enrollment
9. Patients with active multiple cancers
10. Patient who wear a pacemaker
11. Patients for whom MRI scans are contraindicated
12. Patients in whom transrectal ultrasound cannot be performed for some reason, such as
a constricted rectum
13. Patients with a prothrombin time<50% or platelet count<60,000/mm3 during enrollment
14. Patients deemed to be ineligible by an investigator
