Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Metastasis-free survival [5 years]

    Metastasis free survival (MFS) is defined as the interval from the date of randomisation to the date of first evidence of metastasis or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, or the date of last known follow-up alive and without metastases. Evidence of metastasis includes findings on whole body bone scan (WBBS) or CT or MRI that are either characteristic of metastatic prostate cancer, and/or confirmed by other test results, e.g. cytology or histopathology, and lesion qualifies as new metastatic disease per RECIST 1.1. Detection of metastasis by other modalities, eg Ga-68 PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen) PET, does not constitute an event unless confirmed by WBBS or CT or MR

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall survival [5 years]

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the interval from the date of randomisation to date of death from any cause, or the date of last known follow-up alive.

  2. Prostate cancer-specific survival [5 years]

    Prostate cancer-specific survival is defined as the interval from the date of randomisation to the date of death from prostate cancer, or the date of last known follow-up alive.

  3. PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) progression-free survival [5 years]

    PSA progression-free survival is defined as the interval from the date of randomisation to the date of first evidence of PSA progression, clinical progression, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, or the date of last known follow-up without PSA progression and without clinical progression. PSA progression as defined by the Phoenix criteria: an increase in PSA of more than 2ng/mL above the nadir (lowest) PSA level.

  4. Clinical progression-free survival [5 years]

    Clinical progression-free survival is defined as the interval from the date of randomisation to the date of first clinical evidence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, or the date of last known follow-up alive without clinical progression. Clinical evidence of disease progression includes evidence of progression or recurrence on imaging, clinical examination, development of symptoms attributable to cancer progression, or initiation of other anticancer treatment for prostate cancer.

  5. Time to subsequent hormonal therapy [5 years]

    Time to subsequent hormone therapy is the interval from randomisation to the first date that androgen deprivation therapy is recommenced for the treatment of recurrent (or progressive) prostate cancer, or the date of last known follow-up without recommencement of androgen deprivation therapy.

  6. Time to castration-resistant disease (PCWG2 criteria) [5 years]

    Castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is defined, per PCWG2, by a rising PSA that is greater than 2ng/mL higher than the most recent nadir with a testosterone < 50 ng/dL (<1.7 nmol/L); the rise has to be at least 25% over the most recent nadir; and, the rise has to be confirmed by a second PSA at least three weeks later. The time to castration-resistant prostate cancer is defined as the interval from randomisation to the date that the PSA first met the criteria defined above (i.e. the date of the first PSA to meet these criteria, not the date of the subsequent confirmatory test), or the date of last known follow-up without CRPC.

  7. Safety (adverse events - CTCAE v4.03) [5 years]

    The NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03 (NCI CTCAE v4.03) will be used to classify and grade the intensity of adverse events occurring until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.

  8. Health related quality of life (HRQL) [5 years]

    HRQL will be reported by participants using the EORTC core quality of life questionnaire (QLQ C-30) and prostate cancer specific module (PR-25). The EQ-5D-5L will be used to derive utility scores suitable for quality adjusted survival analyses

  9. Health outcomes relative to costs (incremental cost effectiveness ratio) [5 years]

    Information on the following areas of health-care resource usage will be collected: hospitalisations, visits to health professionals, and medications. Quality-adjusted survival (QAS) time will be used to quantify the incremental effectiveness of adding enzalutamide to standard treatment.
