Phase III Double-blind Study of ADT With or Without Darolutamide in Men with Newly Diagnosed Metastatic Prostate Cancer and Vulnerable Health Who Have Not Chosen Docetaxel or Other Hormone Therapies

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are conducting a Phase III international trial to study the effects and safety of androgen deprivation therapy ADT with or without darolutamide in men newly diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer who have vulnerable functional abilities. This study specifically includes patients who have not chosen treatment with docetaxel or other androgen receptor pathway inhibitors. The goal is to evaluate how these treatments impact disease progression and patient health over time. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups one receiving ADT plus darolutamide 600 mg taken orally twice daily, and the other receiving ADT plus a placebo taken with the same schedule. Treatment will continue until imaging shows disease progression or until the patient or doctor decides to stop for reasons such as side effects or other health issues. After stopping treatment, patients will enter a follow-up phase lasting up to 10 years to monitor survival, further treatments, and any ongoing or new side effects. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including imaging scans to check for cancer progression, blood tests, evaluations of urinary symptoms, and quality of life questionnaires. Researchers will track outcomes like progression-free survival, overall survival, symptom changes, and adverse events. Monitoring visits will occur periodically both during treatment and follow-up to gather comprehensive data on health status and treatment effects.
