EORTC-2238-GUCG: Improving impact of anti-androgen treatments on patient's daily life and their cancer
EU CTIS ID: 2023-506817-23-01
What this study is testing
The primary objective of this phase III trial is to establish the risk/benefit ratio of intermittent maximum androgen blockade (iMAB) vs. continuous MAB (cMAB) in mHSPC patients with a deep PSA response (PSA≤ 0.2 ng/mL) after 6 to 12 months with ADT and one of the registered ARpI. The primary objective will be addressed through the following coprimary objectives: 1) To demonstrate among patients from the iMAB arm that the proportion of patients who do not restart their hormonal therapy within 1 year of interrupting their MAB therapy is ≥ 70% (feasibility endpoint) 2) To show that the overall survival (OS) from randomization using an iMAB regimen is non-inferior to continuous treatment (pertinence endpoint)

- Patient treated with ADT (luteinizing hormone–releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist or antagonist) and an ARpI for mHNPC for 6-12 months and presenting with a PSA ≤ 0.2 ng/mL
- Patients with synchronous or metachronous metastases, high volume or low volume/risk who fulfil the criteria can be included.
- Before patient's enrolment, written informed consent must be given according to ICH/GCP, and national/local regulations
You likely can't join if
- Patients with M1a on modern imaging technique (PET-Choline or -PSMA or Whole Body MRI) for whom radiation therapy and 2-3 years of hormone therapy is planned
- Patients who underwent or will undergo a bilateral orchiectomy
- Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment for this trial
- Patients who have received a systemic anti-prostate cancer treatment not approved by EMA together with MAB or a radical prostatectomy for M1 disease
- Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be assessed and discussed with the patient before the enrolment in the trial
