A Study to Learn About Heart-Related Risks in Elderly Men With Advanced Prostate Cancer Treated With Enzalutamide or Darolutamide
MACED: Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events Among Elderly Patients Treated With Enzalutamide or Darolutamide Among Patients With Advanced Prostate Cancer
This observational study aims to better understand the risk of serious heart-related problems in older men with advanced prostate cancer who are treated with certain commonly used medicines.
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy in United States (US) men and a leading cause of cancer mortality, with disease progression spanning multiple clinical states, including non-metastatic castrate resident prostate cancer (nmCRPC) and metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).
Men with advanced prostate cancer are often treated with medicines such as darolutamide or enzalutamide. While these treatments can help control cancer, they may also increase the risk of heart-related side effects, such as heart attack, stroke, or death related to heart and blood vessel disease. However, it is not yet clear whether these risks differ between the two treatments or which patients may be more likely to experience them.
The main goal of the study is to compare how often serious heart-related events (such as heart attack, stroke, or death due to heart problems) occur in patients treated with these two medicines. The study will also explore other heart-related conditions and identify factors that may increase this risk.
In this study, researchers will use existing healthcare data from the United States to look at men aged 55 years and older with advanced prostate cancer who have already been treated with either darolutamide or enzalutamide in routine clinical practice. No new treatments will be given as part of this research. Because this is a retrospective database study, there are no extra study visits, no extra blood tests, and no extra health check-ups required for participants.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
Incidence proportion and incidence rate (per 100 person-years) of 3-point major cardiovascular event (MACE)
Time Frame: Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
Risk will be estimated as the time from the index date to the first 3-point MACE event.
MACE: major cardiovascular event (composite of myocardial infarction [MI], stroke, or cardiovascular [CV] death)).
|
Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
|
Estimation of the association of risk factors with 3-point MACE
Time Frame: Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
A multivariable Cox regression model will be performed to estimate the hazard ratio associated with each risk factor.
MACE: major cardiovascular event (MI, stroke or CV death).
|
Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
Incidence proportion and incidence rate (per 100 person-years) of modified 3-point MACE (MACE-3m)
Time Frame: Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
Risk will be estimated as the time from the index date to the first MACE-3m event.
MACE-3m: composite of acute MI, acute stroke, or all-cause death.
|
Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
|
Incidence proportion and incidence rate (per 100 person-years) of 4-point MACE
Time Frame: Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)
|
Risk will be estimated as the time from the index date to the first 4-point MACE event.
4-point MACE: composite of acute MI, acute stroke, CV death, or unstable angina/revascularization.
|
Retrospective analysis from 01-Aug-2018 up to 31-Dec-2025 (or the most recent available data at the time of analysis)

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)
Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?
IPD Plan Description
Currently, there is no established plan for the sharing of Individual Patient Data (IPD) from this study. The availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA 'Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing.' This pertains to the scope, timepoint, and process of data access.
As such, Bayer commits to considering requests from qualified researchers for patient- / study-level clinical trial data, and documents from clinical trials involving medicines and indications approved in the US and EU. However, this commitment does not reflect an active IPD sharing plan. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014.
Researchers can use www.vivli.org to request access to IPD and documents from clinical studies to conduct research. Information on Bayer's criteria for listing studies is provided in the member section of the portal.
