About this study
In plain language
This study tests SYNC-T Therapy SV-102 for men with advanced prostate cancer that has grown despite hormone treatment. It checks safety, side effects, and how well the treatment works. It also aims to find a dose for the next part of the study.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of SYNC-T Therapy SV-102 and to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or selected dose for phase 2b study.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join

Inclusion Criteria: * Male \>=18 years old. * Able to provide written informed consent and comply with the study procedures. * Participants with advanced and/or metastatic histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell histology or neuroendocrine transformation. * Serum testosterone levels less than or equal to (\<=) 0.5 nanograms per millilitre (ng/mL) (\<=1.73 nanomoles per litre \[nmol/L\]) at screening if on an androgen receptor prostate inhibitor in combination with Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT). * Progression (as defined below) after the receipt of at least one or more approved second-generation androgen-receptor-pathway inhibitors with or without a prior course of taxane therapy, as long as the subject has not received more than three lines of therapy in the CRPC setting. If a subject is known positive for any of the specific gene mutations of BRCA1/2, PALB2, or HRD and chose not to receive an approved PARP-inhibitor they are eligible for the study. Documented progressive disease at screening as assessed by the Investigator with at least one of the following criteria: * Serum/plasma PSA progression defined as 2 consecutive increases in PSA over a previous reference value measured at least 1 week apart. 1.0 ng/mL is the minimal starting value if confirmed rise is only indication of progression. * Radiographic disease progression in soft tissue based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) v1.1 criteria with or without PSA progression as per prostate cancer working group 3 (PCWG3). * Radiographic disease progression in bone defined as the appearance of 2 or more new bone lesions on a bone scan as per PCWG3 with or without PSA progression. * Able to undergo general anesthesia, MAC anesthesia, or conscious sedation. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of less than (\<) 2. * Life expectancy \>=6 months * Last dose of previous anticancer therapy (excluding hormonal therapy) must by 28 days prior to first study treatment. For subjects who previously received lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan (Pluvicto®), the last dose must have been administered \> 90 days prior to first study treatment. Subjects may remain on ADT and/or androgen receptor pathway inhibitor at time of study entry, per Investigator discretion. * Resolution of all acute toxic effects (excluding alopecia) of any prior anticancer therapy. * For males with female partners of childbearing potential, even if surgically sterilized (that is \[i.e.\], status post vasectomy), who agree to practice: 1. effective barrier contraception during the treatment period and through 120-150 days after last dose, OR 2. true abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participants. Periodic abstinence (for example \[e.g.\], calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post ovulation methods), withdrawal, spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhea are not acceptable methods of contraception. Female and male condoms should not be used together. * Must have at least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1 at time of screening. * Must have at least one lesion suitable for SYNC-T Therapy identified by radiographic imaging as defined below: * Soft tissue lesion (e.g., prostate, lung) must be at least 1 cm in at least two dimensions. * Lymph node lesion of at least 1.5 cm (short axis) or 1.0 cm if positive per PET scan. * Exophytic component of a bone lesion that is measurable per RECIST v1.1. Soft tissue and lymph nodes must be demonstrable on CT/MRI and accessible either transperineally or percutaneously to permit tumor biopsy, cryolysis, and immunotherapy infusion. The eligible tumor lesion for intratumoral infusion cannot be a tumor that is adjacent to vital structures such as major nerves or blood vessels or at risk of airway compromise in the event of post-infusion tumor swelling/inflammation. * Participants receiving bone resorptive therapy must be on stable doses for at least 42 days prior to the oncolysis. * In the opinion of the Investigator, there is no other meaningful life prolonging therapy option available, or the participant refuses other therapy, outside of anti-hormonal therapy. * Adequate bone marrow, renal, and hepatic function. * Participants agrees to provide tumor tissue and undergo an on-treatment tumor biopsy.
