Phase
Phase 2
Study type
Interventional (participants receive a specific treatment)
Inclusion criteria
- Participants must give study-specific informed consent prior to enrollment
- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate
- Participants meeting National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) intermediate-risk criteria
- Participants must be planning and medically able to undergo standard or moderate hypofractionated prostate-only EBRT (treatment and control group) and able to tolerate multiple transrectal ultrasound guided injections (treatment group only)
- 18 years of age or older
- Performance status must be Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group 0-2
- The following laboratory criteria must be met (treatment group only):
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \< 3 x upper limit of normal
- Serum creatinine \< 2 mg/dL
- Calculated creatinine clearance \> 30 mL/min
- White blood cells \> 3000/mm3
- Platelets \>100,000/mm3
Exclusion criteria
- Active liver disease, including known cirrhosis or active hepatitis
- Participants on systemic corticosteroids (\> 10 mg prednisone per day) or other immunosuppressive drugs
- Known HIV+ participants
- Regional lymph node involvement or distant metastases
- Participants planning to receive whole pelvic irradiation
- Other current malignancy (except squamous or basal cell skin cancers)
- Other serious co-morbid illness or compromised organ function that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with treatment or follow-up. For example, participants with diseases that preclude radiation therapy to the prostate such as severe prostatitis and inflammatory bowel disease.
- Prior treatment for prostate cancer except transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). If prior TURP, participants must be deemed able to receive multiple intra-prostatic injections by the Investigator.
- Participants who had or plan to have orchiectomy as the form of hormonal ablation
- Known sensitivity or allergic reactions to acyclovir or valacyclovir (treatment group only)
