Trial Outcomes & Findings for Clinical Trials of Adjuvant Androgen Deprivation in Localized Prostate Cancer (NCT NCT02175212)

NCT ID: NCT02175212

Last Updated: 2020-11-20

Results Overview

Biochemical relapse was defined as the time from inclusion in the study (randomization) until the patient meets criteria for Biochemical failure (Phoenix criteria: PSA nadir plus 2 ng/ml).

Participant Flow

Between Nov 7, 2005, and Dec 20, 2010, 362 were registered. Of these, seven did not meet the inclusion criteria. The final trial population thus consisted of 355 men, of whom 178 were randomly assigned to the short-term androgen deprivation group and 177 to the long-term androgen deprivation group.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 5 years

Defined as the maximal rectal, urinary and cardiovascular (CV) toxicity per patient more than 90 days after completion of RT. Scoring scales used were the radiation morbidity scoring criteria of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer-Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (EORTC/RTOG) and the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAEs) v 3.0 for the remained toxicity. CV events were defined according to the World Health Organization criteria
