Efficacy and Safety of Darolutamide Combined With ADT in High-risk/Very High-risk Localized Prostate Cancer

Medical Ethics Committee of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Medical School of Nanjing University

This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant therapy with Darolutamide combined with Androgen-Deprivation Therapy in High-risk/Very high-risk localized prostate cancer. This trial is A prospective, single-arm, multicenter clinical trial. Treatment cycle is 24 weeks,

Study Overview

• Status: Recruiting
• Conditions: Prostate Cancer
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Darolutamide 300 mg; Other: Androgen deprivation therapy

Detailed Description

High risk prostate cancer (PCa) had worse outcomes on radical treatment results, short-time oncological results, even cancer-specific survival, than those low or mediate risk PCa. Neoadjuvant treatment before radical prostatectomy had been proven to get some benefits on peri-operation results, especially on reduction of tumor volume and minimization of biochemical recurrence. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with Darolutamide in neoadjuvant therapy for surgically resectable high-risk or very high-risk PCa.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Intervention / Treatment

Experimental: ADT with Darolutamide; Pathological response rate after radical prostatectomy with dalotamide combined with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in neoadjuvant therapy for surgically resectable high-risk or very high-risk prostate cancer. Duration of treatment: 28-day cycle of darotamide treatment and 6 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy. ADT treatment continued during neoadjuvant therapy and was discontinued after surgery. Adjusted dosing: When the serum testosterone concentration cannot be maintained at <50 ng/dL, the dose and type of ADT can be adjusted. Investigators can adjust the dose of darostatide according to the situation.

Drug: Darolutamide 300 mg; 600 mg (300 mg × 2 tablets) twice daily with meals, equivalent to a total daily dose of 1200 mg.; Other Names: Nubeqa, BAY1841788; Other: Androgen deprivation therapy; The ADT regimen used by each patient will be determined by the investigator, and the dose and frequency of administration will be consistent with the prescribing information.; Other Names: ADT

What is the study measuring?
