A Study of Abiraterone Acetate Plus Low-Dose Prednisone Plus Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) Versus ADT Alone in Newly Diagnosed Participants With High-Risk, Metastatic Hormone-Naive Prostate Cancer (mHNPC)
Argentina1,209 participantsStarted 2013-02-12
Plain-language summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if newly diagnosed (within previous 3 months) participants with metastatic (spread of cancer cells from one part of the body to another ) hormone-naive prostate cancer (mHNPC) who have high-risk prognostic factors will benefit from the addition of abiraterone acetate plus low-dose prednisone to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT; lutenizing hormone releasing hormone \[LHRH\] agonists or surgical castration).

Inclusion Criteria:
* Newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer within 3 months prior to randomization with histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without neuroendocrine differentiation or small cell histology
* Distant metastatic disease documented by positive bone scan or metastatic lesions on computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan
* At least 2 of the following high-risk prognostic factors: Gleason score of greater than or equal to (\>=8); presence of 3 or more lesions on bone scan; presence of measurable visceral (excluding lymph node disease) metastasis on CT or MRI Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.1 scan
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status grade of 0, 1 or 2
* Adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function
* Agrees to protocol-defined use of effective contraception
Exclusion Criteria:
* Active infection or other medical condition that would make prednisone use contraindicated
* Any chronic medical condition requiring a higher systemic dose of corticosteroid than 5 mg prednisone per day
* Pathological finding consistent with small cell carcinoma of the prostate
* Known brain metastasis
* Any prior pharmacotherapy, radiation therapy, or surgery for metastatic prostate cancer (the following exception are permitted): up to 3 months of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with lutenizing hormone releasing hormone agonists or antagonists or orchiectomy wi…
