Study Summary

This is randomized, double blind, placebo controlled proof of principle (window of opportunity) study of oral hydroxychloroquine in patients with resectable localized prostate cancer. To determine the effects of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) on markers of autophagy, such as p62, LC3-II and NBR-1 in prostate cancer tissue of patients with resectable localized prostate cancer who undergo radical prostatectomy. To monitor/observe the safety and tolerability of daily oral hydroxychloroquine in the pre and perioperative period in patients who undergo radical prostatectomy. To evaluate the concentration of hydroxychloroquine in normal and prostate tumor tissue and to correlate prostate tissue concentrations with the plasma concentrations in these patients. To perform tumor genomic analysis (for common somatic mutations) and to correlate the molecular response to HCQ and presence/absence of such mutations.

Primary Outcome

To determine the effects of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) on markers of autophagy, such as p62, LC3-II and NBR-1 in prostate cancer tissue of patients with resectable localized prostate cancer who undergo radical prostatectomy.
