Purpose
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of photodynamic therapy with lutetium texaphyrin in treating patients with locally recurrent prostate cancer. Photodynamic therapy uses light and drugs that make cancer cells more sensitive to light to kill tumor cells. This may be effective treatment for locally recurrent prostate cancer. Photosensitizing drugs, such as lutetium texaphyrin, are absorbed by cancer cells and, when exposed to light, become active and kill the cancer cells

- Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) defined as grade III non-hematologic toxicity or grade IV hematologic toxicity as assessed by the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) version 2.0 [ Time Frame: 24 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- MTD based on the incidence of DLT as assessed by the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program CTC version 2.0 [ Time Frame: 24 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Percent change in lutetium texaphyrin levels in needle biopsies by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and tissue fluorescence assay [ Time Frame: From pre-PDT to post-PDT ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Scattergrams and error bar plots of lutetium texaphyrin concentration by lutetium texaphyrin dose level and possibly by light fluence (for a fixed lutetium texaphyrin dose = 2) will be constructed to investigate possible dose-concentration relationships.
- Lutetium texaphyrin levels in situ [ Time Frame: At pre- and post-PDT ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, range and coefficient of variation) will be used to characterize the distribution of lutetium texaphyrin concentrations within each dose level.
- Clinical response rate defined as no evidence of disease (NED) [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The 95% confidence interval will be calculated for the rate of NED.
- Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: From the date of accession to the date of documentation of clinical progression or until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Estimated by the method of Kaplan and Meier.
- Time to complete response [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Time to biochemical relapse [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Time to local progression as determined by clinical exam [ Time Frame: From the date of accession to the date of documented local progression, assessed up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Estimated by the method of Kaplan and Meier.
- Time to distant failure [ Time Frame: From the date of accession to the date of documented metastatic disease, assessed up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Overall survival [ Time Frame: From the date of accession to the date of death, assessed up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Disease specific survival [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Experimental: Treatment (motexafin lutetium, PDT)
Patients receive lutetium texaphyrin IV over 10-15 minutes 3-24 hours before photodynamic therapy (PDT). Optical fibers attached to a laser are inserted through a catheter into the prostate. The laser delivers 730 nm light to the prostate until the specified fluence is delivered. Patients undergo biopsy of the prostate and bladder before and after PDT. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of lutetium texaphyrin and light fluence until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity.

Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the dose limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated dose of photodynamic therapy (PDT) using 730 nm light and lutetium texaphyrin in patients with locally recurrent prostate adenocarcinoma who have failed previous definitive radiotherapy.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Measure lutetium texaphyrin levels in needle biopsies of the prostate before and after PDT using an HPLC and tissue fluorescence assay and calculate the percent change in lutetium texaphyrin after treatment.
II. Measure lutetium texaphyrin fluorescence in situ in the prostate before and after PDT using optical methods and correlate these results with the direct tissue measurements made in the biopsies of these patients.
III. Determine clinical outcome including clinical response, progression free survival, time to complete response, time to biochemical relapse, time to local progression, time to distant failure, overall survival, and disease specific survival in these patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of lutetium texaphyrin and light fluence.
Patients receive lutetium texaphyrin IV over 10-15 minutes 3-24 hours before photodynamic therapy (PDT). Optical fibers attached to a laser are inserted through a catheter into the prostate. The laser delivers 730 nm light to the prostate until the specified fluence is delivered. Patients undergo biopsy of the prostate and bladder before and after PDT. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of lutetium texaphyrin and light fluence until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity.
Patients are followed at 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, then every 3 months until 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A minimum of 24 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years.
