March 15, 2017 updated by: Camurus AB

A Phase II, Open Label, Active Control, Multi-National, Multi-Centre, Randomized, Parallel Group Study Assessing Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Efficacy and Safety of CAM2032 (Leuprolide Acetate FluidCrystal® Injection Depot Once Monthly) After Repeat Doses of 3.75 mg and 7.5 mg of Leuprolide Acetate vs. Eligard® 7.5 mg in Patients With Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy and safety of CAM2032 versus Eligard, in patients with prostate cancer. All patients will receive leuprolide acetate administered subcutaneously once monthly during 3 months.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Observed Maximum Serum Leuprolide Concentration (Cmax) for Dose 1 and Dose 3
Time Frame: 84 days
Blood samples for analysis of serum leuprolide concentrations were collected at pre-determined time points throughout the trial (with full PK profiles after Dose 1 and Dose 3). The PK parameter, Cmax was derived for Doses 1 and 3 of the investigational medicinal product (IMP).
84 days
Apparent Terminal Half-life (t½) for Dose 1 and Dose 3
Time Frame: Days 0-28 and Days 56-84
Blood samples for analysis of serum leuprolide concentrations were collected at pre-determined time points throughout the trial (with full PK profiles after Dose 1 and Dose 3). The PK parameter, t1/2 was derived for Doses 1 and 3 of the IMP.
Days 0-28 and Days 56-84
Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve (AUC) Over the Dosing Interval (AUCtau) for Dose 1 and Dose 3
Time Frame: Days 0-28 and Days 56-84 (0-672 hours after Doses 1 and 3)
Blood samples for analysis of serum leuprolide concentrations were collected at pre-determined time points throughout the trial (with full PK profiles after Dose 1 and Dose 3). The PK parameter, AUCtau was derived for Doses 1 and 3 of the IMP.
Days 0-28 and Days 56-84 (0-672 hours after Doses 1 and 3)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time (Days) to Testosterone Recovery After Dose 3
Time Frame: Days 56-126
The pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of leuprolide were assessed by measuring serum testosterone during the trial. Time to testosterone recovery after last dose of the IMP. Blood samples for analyses of serum testosterone concentrations were collected at Screening and on Days 0 to 126.
Days 56-126
Profiles of Testesterone Concentration (ng/dL) Following Injections of the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP)
Time Frame: Days 0-126
The PD effects of leuprolide were assessed by measuring serum testosterone concentrations during the trial. The following PD variable was analyzed: The profiles of testosterone concentration (ng/dL) following injections of the IMP. Blood samples for analyses of serum testosterone concentrations were collected at Screening and on Days 0 to 126.
Days 0-126
Mean Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Concentration
Time Frame: Days 0-126
The PD effects of leuprolide were assessed by measuring serum PSA concentrations during the trial. The following PD variable was analyzed: PSA (ng/mL) response to IMP. Blood samples for analyses of plasma PSA concentrations were collected at Screening and on Days 0 to 126.
Days 0-126
