E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial | -To assess the duration of action of two different initial “loading” dose regimens of Teverelix LA in terms of suppression of testosterone to below castrate level (0.5 ng/ml) in patients with prostate cancer | |
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial | -To assess the pharmacodynamics of Teverelix in terms of ability to suppress and maintain plasma testosterone levels below castration level (<0.5 ng/ml) until (after week 3), 2 consecutive, increasing T levels above castration level, with the latter one above 2ng/ml have been recorded. -To assess the effects on Luteinising Hormone (LH) -To assess the effects on Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) -To assess the safety of Teverelix LA in terms of local tolerability and systemic tolerability (adverse events and changes in laboratory parameters) | |
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria | •Histologically proven adenocarcinoma of the prostate •Suitable androgen deprivation therapy (advanced prostate cancer i.e. with local invasion and/or metastasis) •Signed, written informed consent | |
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria | •Liver or renal function tests (ASAT/SGOT, ALAT/SGPT), total bilirubin, creatinine) exceeding twice the upper limit of the normal range, unless the elevation is attributed to hepatic metastasis •Screening QTc interval of ≥ 430 msec •Any contraindication to the use of Teverelix LA •Life expectancy of less than 1 year •Baseline Testosterone value below 2.31 ng/ml •Bilateral orchidectomy •Pre-existing hormone therapy or planned concomitant use of androgen deprivation therapy with any agent other than the investigational drug •Neurological, psychiatric disease, drug or alcohol abuse which could interfere with the subject’s proper compliance •Evidence of concurrent malignancy •Exposure to another investigational agent within the last month •Lack of ability or willingness to give informed consent •Anticipated non-availability for study visits/procedures | |
E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) | Duration of castration (ie T < 0.5 ng/ml) Escape from castration is defined as, after week 3, two consecutive increasing T levels above castration level, have been recorded, with the latter one above 2ng/ml. | |
