What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
PSA response rate at statistical study closure based on the percentage of subjects experiencing PSA normalization or a > 50% reduction in PSA levels compared with study entry sustained for 3 months (i.e. three consecutive measurements)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
TTF (failure defined as a need for additional/alternative therapy due to PSA progression, metastases or AEs)
Duration of PSA response
PFS (progression defined as doubling in PSA levels compared with the PSA level at study entry)
