- Symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association 3 or 4), unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction, significant cardiac arrhythmia, history of stroke or transient ischemic attack, all within 6 months prior to enrolment or severe hypertension according to WHO criteria or uncontrolled hypertension at the time of enrolment (systolic blood pressure ≥ 180 mm Hg)´
- Previous chemotherapy for metastatic PCA.
- Previous anti-hormonal treatment with abiraterone or any other investigational anti-hormonal treatment.
- Cancer-related pain requiring opioid narcotics within 28 days before enrolment or an average pain score of > 3 on a visual analogue scale.

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Phase I (Safety Lead-In): Occurrence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during the first 4 weeks of treatment (after administration of 3 vaccinations and after a 1 week observation period
Safety Lead in Portion:
Patients will receive CV9104 at a starting dose of 1920 µg in weeks 1, 2 and 3. Safety lead-in patients will be observed for DLTs until 1 week after Vaccination 3 (week 4). In case no DLTs will be observed vaccinations will continue in weeks 5, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 24, then every 6 weeks for up to 12 months after the first vaccination and then every 3 months thereafter until one of the criteria for study treatment discontinuation is met
Phase II (Randomised Portion): Overall Survival from time of randomisation- up to 3.5-4 years.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Progression free survival from date of randomisation
Progression free survival from start of first subsequent systemic therapy
Percent change to maximal and to minimal PSA from baseline and before start of first subsequent systemic cancer therapy and from start of first systemic therapy to end of first subsequent systemic therapy
Cellular and humoral immune response rate against the 6 antigens encoded by CV9104
Time to symptom progression based on FACT P score and subscores
Absolute change and area under the curve from baseline EQ-5D score and pain sub-score
Progression free survival from randomisation until second progression on first subsequent therapy

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the new RNActive®-derived prostate cancer vaccine CV9104 prolongs survival in patients with asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic metastatic prostate cancer that is castrate resistant.
Detailed Description
The study is the first clinical study with the new prostate cancer vaccine CV9104. This vaccine is composed of 6RNActive®-based compounds, each encoding for an antigen that is overexpressed in prostate cancer compared to healthy tissues. RNActive®-based vaccines are a novel class of vaccines based on messenger RNA.
The study is a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled phase I/II trial in men with asymptomatic- minimally symptomatic metastatic castrate-refractory prostate cancer.
The phase 1 (safety lead- in) part of the trial has the primary objective to assess the safety of CV9104 and to determine the dose for the randomized phase II part.
The primary objective of the phase II part is to compare overall survival in patients treated with CV9104 compared to patients treated with placebo.
