Long-term follow up of patients treated with a DNA vaccine (pTVG-hp) for PSA-recurrent prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: We have previously reported two single-agent phase I trials, evaluating the dose or schedule, of a DNA vaccine (pTVG-HP) encoding prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) administered with GM-CSF as the adjuvant. These were in patients with PSA-recurrent, radiographically non-metastatic, prostate cancer (PCa). We report here the long-term safety and overall survival of these patients. Specifically, 22 patients with non-metastatic, castration-sensitive PCa (nmCSPC) were treated with pTVG-HP, 100-1500 µg, administered over 12 weeks and followed for 15 y. 17 patients with non-metastatic castration-resistant PCa (nmCRPC) were treated with 100 µg pTVG-HP with different schedules of administration over 1 y and followed for 5 y. No adverse events were detected in long-term follow-up from either trial tha
