Inclusion Criteria:

  • • Histologically confirmed prostate cancer (stage IV, according to NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology: Prostate Cancer, Version 2.2017)

    • Evidence of metastasis in the soft tissue and/or bone.
    • Progressive androgen independent castrate resistant prostate cancer.

    • Castrate level of testosterone (< 50 ng/dL) achieved via medical or surgical castration.
    • Adequate hematologic, renal and liver function.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • • Presence of known lung, liver, or brain metastases, malignant pleural effusions, or malignant ascites.

    • Presence of moderate to severe pain treating with opioid analgesics within 21 days prior to registration.
    • ECOG score ≥ 2.
    • Any other systemic therapy for prostate cancer (except for medical castration).
    • Participation in previous study using Provenge (Sipuleucel-T) or similar product.
    • Known pathologic long-bone fractures, imminent pathologic long-bone fracture (cortical erosion on radiography > 50%) or spinal cord compression.
    • Known malignancies other than prostate cancer requiring active treatment within 6 months.
    • A requirement for systemic immunosuppressive therapy for any reason.
    • A history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to this product or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor.
    • Any infection requiring parenteral antibiotic therapy or causing fever (temp > 100.5°F or > 38.1°C) within 1 week prior to registration.
    • Any medical intervention or other condition which, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator could compromise adherence with study requirements or otherwise compromise the study's objectives.
    • Treatment with any of the following medications or interventions within 28 days of registration:

Systemic use of corticosteroids, External beam radiation therapy or surgery, Use of non-steroidal antiandrogens Dietary and herbal supplements, as well as alternative treatments that have evidence of hormonal and/or anticancer properties (e.g., prostate cancer (PC) -SPES or PC-SPEC) and saw palmetto, Megestrol acetate (Megace®), diethylstilbesterol (DES), or cyproterone acetate, ++Ketoconazole, 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, Treatment with any other investigational product Treatment with chemotherapy High dose calcitriol [1,25(OH)2Vitamin D] (i.e., > 0.5 mcg/day). Initiation or discontinuation of bisphosphonate therapy

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a therapeutic vaccine in combination with PD-1 knockout T cells in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
This is a phase 1/2 clinical study investigating the safety and efficacy of a therapeutic vaccine in combination with PD-1 knockout T cells in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer. The therapeutic vaccine is a customized product involving ex vivo treatment of the patient's peripheral blood mononuclear cells with a recombinant fusion protein (PAP-GM-CSF) to activate the expression of the antigen that would activate the immune function to kill cancer cells. The PD-1 knockout engineered T cells are also prepared using patient's T cells in which PD-1 gene will be knocked out using CRISPR Cas9 technology. The therapeutic vaccine and PD-1 knockout T cells will be infused back to the patient in 3 times with a 2-week interval.
