Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effects of Triptorelin Pamoate 6-month When Given to Adult Chinese Participants With Advanced Cancer in the Prostate (NCT NCT05590793)

NCT ID: NCT05590793

Last Updated: 2025-09-09

Results Overview

Blood samples were collected to determine the serum testosterone concentrations using a validated, specific and sensitive liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. Achievement of testosterone castration was defined as serum testosterone level \<50 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL) or 1.735 nanomoles/liter (nmol/L). Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.

Participant Flow

This Phase IIIb, open-label, single arm study was conducted at 27 investigational sites in participants with locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer.

The study consisted of a 4-week screening period, single dose study intervention administration on Day 1 and an end of study on Day 169. A subset of participants had a more extensive sampling during the study to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). A total of 195 participants were enrolled in the study.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 29

Population: The full analysis set (FAS) included all treated participants who completed the study or were a treatment failure.

Blood samples were collected to determine the serum testosterone concentrations using a validated, specific and sensitive liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. Achievement of testosterone castration was defined as serum testosterone level \<50 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL) or 1.735 nanomoles/liter (nmol/L). Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From the first dose of study intervention (Day 1) up to end of study visit (Week 24), approximately 169 days

Population: The safety set included all participants who received the single dose of study intervention.

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital abnormality/birth defect, or any other medically important event. TEAEs were AEs with start date on or after the date of study intervention administration and up to 24 weeks after date of first dose of treatment. Local tolerance was assessed 2 hours (+/-15 minutes) after the single injection of 6-month formulation triptorelin by examination of injection site for signs including but not limited to tenderness, erythema, swelling, hematoma, rash, pain, itching and induration.

Timeframe: Baseline (Day 1), Weeks 12 and 24

Population: The FAS included all treated participants who completed the study or were a treatment failure. Only participants with data collected at specified timepoints are reported.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of plasma PSA concentrations. Percent change in PSA was defined as the absolute value of difference between the PSA values at Week 12 and Week 24 and the baseline value divided by the baseline value. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing measurement taken prior to first study intervention administration.
