Per RECIST, progression is defined as ≥ 20% and ≥ 5 mm from nadir of the sum of the diameters of target lesions. Per PCWG2 criteria, radiographic progression is defined as ≥ 20% sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or ≥ 2 new lesions on bone scan from baseline.

Sponsor's own description

This clinical trial studies the effect of radium-223 when added to sipuleucel-T for treating castrate-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to the bone. Sipuleucel-T is an autologous cellular immunotherapy designed to stimulate an immune response against prostate cancer. It has been suggested that the immune response may be strengthened by radiation therapy. Therefore this study is testing whether radium-223 added to sipuleucel-T increases the immune response and anti-tumor effect against prostate cancer.
