This phase 2 multi-center trial randomized patients to Sm-153-EDTMP alone or w
ith PSA-TRICOM vaccine. Eligibility required mCRPC, bone metastases, prior docetaxel and no visceral disease. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients without radiographic disease progression at 4 months. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and immune responses -
Median PFS was 1.7 vs. 3.7 months in the Sm-153-EDTMP alone and combination arms (P = 0.041, HR = 0.51, P = 0.046). No patient in the Sm-153-EDTMP alone arm achieved prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline > 30% compared with four patients (of 21) in the combination arm, including three with PSA decline > 50%

Gode tanker Fais..Hvad er det præcis som gør dig så optimistisk?

Prostvacs svaghed er hvis canceren er blevet immunosuppresiv og/eller er stoppet med at udtrykke PSA. I så fald vil prostvac være betydningsløs. Det man kan se på de forsøgsresultater, vi har fået indtil nu er, at nogle få af patienterne responderer virkelig godt på behandlingen. Meget stor immunrespons og reducering i PSA tallet. Generelt set ser man dog ikke en reducering i PSA tallet, de fornævnte patienter har været heldige genetisk, de har haft både et stærkt immunsystem og en mild cancer.

Prostvacs effekt er ikke at helbrede, men at reducere kræftens væksthastighed. Det vil jeg mene den er i stand til hos patienterne med mildere tumorer. Dette har man taget højde for ved prostvacs fase 3 forsøg. Patienter der har deltaget i fase 3 forsøget har mindre avanceret cancere ifht. patienter fra fase 2 forsøget
