Experimental NanoPac |
Direct injection of NanoPac at 15 mg/mL at a volume not to exceed the volume of the prostate cancer lesion (no more than 10% of total prostate volume). NanoPac will be administered on up to three occasions, with at least 28 days between each dose. |

Detailed Description
NanoPac is very small (submicron) particles of the chemotherapy drug, paclitaxel, which is administered intravenously in a number of types of cancer. These submicron particles are injected directly into solid tumors to target cancer at the site of disease with less systemic exposure than intravenously administered chemotherapy. In this study, this submicron particle paclitaxel will be injected directly into the prostate lesion in men with prostate cancer scheduled for prostatectomy on up to three different occasions. All subjects in the study will receive NanoPac and will be evaluated to see if NanoPac is safe, well-tolerated, and has an impact on prostate cancer.
