The Role of Highly Selective Androgen Receptor (AR) Targeted Therapy in Men With Biochemically Relapsed Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer

FACT-P assesses symptoms/problems related to prostate carcinoma and its treatment. It is a combination of the FACT- General + the Prostate Cancer Subscale (PCS). The FACT-General (FACT-G) is a 27 item Quality of Life (QoL) measure that provides a total score as well as subscale scores: Physical (0-28), Functional (0-28), Social (0-28), and Emotional Well-being (0-24). The total score range is between 1-108, higher scores indicates better for total score and subscale scores. PCS is a 12-item prostate cancer subscale that asks about symptoms and problems specific to prostate cancer (Range 0-48, higher scores better). The FACT-P total score is the sum of all 5 subscale scores of the FACT-P questionnaire and ranges from 0-156. Higher scores indicate higher degree of functioning and better quality of life.

EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30 items self-reporting questionnaire resulting in 5 functional scales (physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, and social functioning), 1 Global Health Status (GHS) scale, 3 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, and pain), and 6 single symptom items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Questionnaire includes 28 items with 4-point Likert type responses from "1-not at all" to "4-very much" to assess functioning and symptoms; 2 items with 7-point Likert scales (1= poor and 7= excellent) for global health and overall health related quality of life. Scores are transformed to 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores representing better GHS, better functioning, and more symptoms.

EORTC QLQ-PR25, a module of the EORTC QLQ-30 questionnaire was used to assess the quality of life. It Consist of 25 questions distributed on 6 domains: urinary symptoms (8 items), incontinence aid (1 item), bowel symptoms (4 items), hormonal treatment-related symptoms (HTRS) (6 items), sexual activity (2 items), and sexual functioning (4 items). Participants answered each of these questions on a 4 point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much'). All raw domain scores are linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores reflecting either more symptoms (urinary, bowel, hormonal treatment-related symptoms) or higher levels of activity or functioning (sexual).

The SHIM is a well validated abridged 5-item of the 15-item International Index of Erectile Function, which has been extensively studied in men with erectile dysfunction due to various etiologies, including prostate cancer-related therapies. It consists of 5 items pertaining to sexual functioning, with scores ranging from 0-5 for most items. The total score is obtained by adding all five item scores, and can range from 5 to 25. Higher scores indicate higher level of sexual function and less erectile dysfunction.

PSA progression was defined as a rise to greater than 50 percent (%) of the baseline serum PSA or rise of 2 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL) or more above the nadir, whichever is higher, confirmed by repeat measurement at least 2 weeks later.

Percentage of participants without evidence of PSA or radiographic progression during the 24-month treatment period and with recovery of serum testosterone at 24 months were reported. Testosterone recovery was defined as a serum testosterone greater than (>) 150 nanogram per deciliter (ng/dL). PSA progression was defined as a rise to greater than 50 percent (%) of the baseline serum PSA or rise of 2 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL) or more above the nadir, whichever is higher, confirmed by repeat measurement at least 2 weeks later. Radiographic progression was defined as the detection of new metastasis on either bone scan or cross-sectional imaging (computed tomography [CT] or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]).

Percentage of participants with PSA less than (<) 0.2 ng/mL after 7 months of protocol therapy were reported.

Change from baseline in BMI was reported. BMI was calculated as 'body weight in kg/(height in meters)* (height in meters)'. Endpoint values are from the last measurement within the analysis period.

The change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose levels was analyzed and reported using a mixed-model for repeated measures.

The change from baseline in HbA1C was analyzed and reported using a mixed-model for repeated measures.

Change from baseline in cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides were analyzed and reported using a mixed-model for repeated measures.

Change from baseline in BMD was assessed for femoral neck and lumber spine with DEXA scans.

The time to serum testosterone recovery to > 50 ng/dL and > 150 ng/dL from Month 13 to Month 24 of protocol therapy was reported.

Change from baseline in serum DHT levels was reported.

Change from baseline in estradiol levels was reported.

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE can, therefore, be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. Treatment-emergent adverse events are those that occurred between the date of 1st dose of study drug and date of last dose of study drug plus 30 days.
