NCT07597369

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate and validate the expression and prognostic value of 15 ADC-targetable membrane proteins (PSMA, B7-H3, STEAP1, TROP2, KLK2, HER2, TF, HER3, DLL3, SEZ6, STEAP2, MUC1, NECTIN4, FAP, PDL1) in patients with diverse clinicopathological subtypes of prostate cancer (e.g. primary and different metastatic types,HSPC and CRPC, PC with neuroendocrine differentiation, cribriform/intraductal carcinoma). The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. 1.What is the expression profile of 15 clinically actionable targes in tumor tissues from patients with diverse clinicopathological subtypes of prostate cancer?
  2. 2.Can the prognostic value of these targets (e.g. association with overall survival) identified in a retrospective cohort be validated in an independent prospective cohort? Researchers will head-to-head compare the expression levels among different targets and across different disease stages/metastatic site. Researchers will also assess whether the targets showing prognostic significance in the retrospective cohort can also predict survival outcomes in the prospective cohort.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Expression Profile in the Retrospective Prostate Cancer Cohort

    The protein expression profiles of 15 tumor-associated antigens (PSMA, B7-H3, STEAP1, TROP2, KLK2, HER2, TF, HER3, DLL3, SEZ6, STEAP2, MUC1, NECTIN4, FAP, PDL1) and molecular subtype markers (AR, PSA, Syn, CgA, CD56, p53, RB1, and PTEN) in tumor tissues from the four retrospective site-based cohorts (Primary Tumor, Lymph Node Metastasis, Bone Metastasis, Visceral Metastasis). Measure: Expression level assessed by IHC score (0-3) , modified H-score (0-300) (positive expression defined as a H-score \> 20) for each target within each cohort.

    Baseline (at time of metastatic site sample acquisition)

  • Validation in the Prospective Cohort

    The association between the expression status (positive/negative or H-score level) of prognostically significant ADC targets (identified in the retrospective cohort) and Overall Survival (OS) in the prospectively enrolled mCRPC validation cohort. This is a confirmatory analysis. Measure: Hazard Ratio (HR) with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) from Cox proportional hazards model.

    From date of prospective cohort enrollment until death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Target Expression Difference: Primary Tumor vs. Paired Metastasis

    Baseline (at time of matched sample acquisition)

  • Target Expression Difference: Across Different Metastatic Sites

    Baseline

  • Target Expression in Special Clinicopathological Subtypes (Subgroup Analysis)

    Baseline

  • Prognostic Association in Retrospective Prostate Cancer Cohort

    From date of radical prostatectomy until biochemical recurrence, metastasis, or death, assessed up to 10 years

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Co-expression and Complementary Expression Patterns of ADC Targets

    Baseline

Study Arms (5)

Primary Tumor Cohort

This retrospective cohort consists of patients with prostate cancer (encompassing castration-sensitive \[CSPC\], castration-resistant \[CRPC\] disease states, and those with special clinicopathological subtypes) for whom primary tumor tissue (from biopsy or radical prostatectomy) is available. Archived FFPE specimens were obtained at Peking University First Hospital between 2000 and 2025. This is an observational cohort. No study intervention is administered.

Other: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Staining and Analysis

Lymph Node Metastasis Cohort

This retrospective cohort consists of patients with prostate cancer (encompassing CSPC, CRPC disease states, and those with special clinicopathological subtypes) for whom lymph node metastasis tissue is available. Archived FFPE specimens were obtained at Peking University First Hospital between 2000 and 2025. This is an observational cohort. No study intervention is administered.

Other: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Staining and Analysis

Bone Metastasis Cohort

This retrospective cohort consists of patients with prostate cancer (encompassing CSPC, CRPC disease states, and those with special clinicopathological subtypes) for whom bone metastasis tissue is available. Archived FFPE specimens were obtained at Peking University First Hospital between 2000 and 2025. This is an observational cohort. No study intervention is administered.

Other: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Staining and Analysis

Visceral Metastasis Cohort

This retrospective cohort consists of patients with prostate cancer (encompassing CSPC, CRPC disease states, and those with special clinicopathological subtypes) for whom visceral metastasis (e.g., liver, lung) tissue is available. Archived FFPE specimens were obtained at Peking University First Hospital between 2000 and 2025. This is an observational cohort. No study intervention is administered.

Other: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Staining and Analysis

Prospective Validation Cohort

This is a prospective, observational cohort. It will enroll metastatic prostate cancer patients (mHSPC or mCRPC) at Peking University First Hospital starting January 1, 2026. Participants will provide informed consent. Residual tumor tissue (from any site) obtained during standard-of-care procedures will be collected for biomarker analysis, and participants will be followed prospectively for clinical outcomes. No study intervention is administered.

Other: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Staining and Analysis

Interventions

Immunohistochemistry staining will be performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) prostate cancer tissue sections to quantitatively assess the expression levels of eight membrane protein targets: PSMA, HER2, TROP2, NECTIN4, DLL3, STEAP1, B7-H3, and PDL1. This is a laboratory-based biomarker analysis and does not constitute a therapeutic intervention for participants.

Study Population

1. Retrospective Cohorts: These four groups are defined by the origin of the archived tumor tissue specimen at Peking University First Hospital (2000-2025). Each cohort includes patients across the spectrum of disease states (castration-sensitive \[CSPC\] and castration-resistant \[CRPC\] prostate cancer) and those with special clinicopathological subtypes (e.g., neuroendocrine differentiation, cribriform/intraductal carcinoma). 2. Prospective Validation Cohort: This group will consist of patients with metastatic prostate cancer recruited at Peking University First Hospital starting January 1, 2026. Participants will provide informed consent for the use of residual tumor tissue (from any anatomic site) obtained during standard clinical care and for prospective clinical follow-up. The core material for analysis is formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue from all participants, which will be subjected to immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for biomarker evaluation.

You may qualify if:

  • For the Retrospective Cohorts (mCRPC, CSPC, Special Pathology):
  • Patients with a pathological diagnosis of prostate cancer.
  • Treated at Peking University First Hospital between January 2000 and 2025.
  • Availability of adequate, qualified formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue blocks for research.
  • Availability of essential clinical and follow-up data in medical records.
  • For the Prospective Cohort:
  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • CSPC, primarily includes patients who underwent neoadjuvant therapy and have paired pre- and post-treatment biopsy and surgical specimens; or patients with special clinicopathological subtypes.
  • metastatic prostate cancer patients.
  • Planned or recent (within 6 months prior to enrollment) acquisition of tumor tissue (from metastasis or primary site) as part of standard clinical care, with sufficient residual tissue available for the study.
  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • For All Cohorts:
  • Tumor tissue sample is of insufficient quality or quantity for immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis.
  • Essential clinical or outcome data are missing or irretrievable, which would preclude meaningful analysis.
  • Specifically for the Prospective Cohort:
  • Any condition that, in the investigator's judgment, would significantly compromise the patient's ability to provide informed consent or comply with the study follow-up procedures.
  • Patient refusal to participate.
