An Efficacy and Safety Study of JNJ56021927 (ARN509) in High-risk Prostate Cancer Subjects Receiving Primary Radiation Therapy: ATLAS
EU CTIS ID: 2023-505246-26-00
What this study is testing
To determine if apalutamide plus GnRH agonist in subjects with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer receiving primary RT results in an improvement of MFS based on conventional imaging assessed by BICR.
- Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III)

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- - Age >= 18 years
- - Indicated and planned to receive primary radiation therapy for prostate cancer
- - Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of an intact prostate, and 1 of the following at diagnosis: 1) Gleason Score >=8 and >=cT2c stage per AJCC 8th Edition, 2) Gleason score 7, PSA >=20 nanogram per mililiters (ng/mL), and >=cT2c stage per AJCC 8th Edition
- - Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) <=3
- - An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) Grade of 0 or 1
- -Adequate organ function determined by the following central laboratory values: 1) aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) within normal limits (WNL) 2) total bilirubin WNL 3) Serum creatinine <1.5 mg/dL (<133 μmol/L) 4) Platelets ≥140,000/μL, independent of transfusion and/or growth factors within 3 months prior to randomization 5) Hemoglobin ≥ 12.0 g/dL (7.4 mmol), independent of transfusion and/or growth factors within 3 months prior to randomization
You likely can't join if
- - Presence of distant metastasis (clinical stage M1). Isolated pelvic nodal disease below the iliac bifurcation (clinical stage N1) is not an exclusion. Diagnosis of distant metastasis (clinical M stage; M0 versus M1a, M1b, M1c) and pelvic nodal disease (clinical N stage; N1 versus N0) will be assessed by central radiological review. Patients are considered eligible only if the central radiological review confirms clinical stage M0
- - Use of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (eg, dutasteride, finasteride) <=4 weeks prior to randomization
- - Use of any investigational agent <=4 weeks prior to randomization
- - Current chronic use of opioid analgesics for >=3 weeks for oral or >7 days for non-oral formulations
- - Major surgery <=4 weeks prior to randomization
- - Current or prior treatment with antiepileptic medications for the treatment of seizures
