An Efficacy and Safety Study of Apalutamide (JNJ-56021927) in Combination With Abiraterone Acetate and Prednisone Versus Abiraterone Acetate and Prednisone in Participants With Chemotherapy-naive Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)

Plain-language summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) of apalutamide in combination with abiraterone acetate (AA) plus prednisone or prednisolone (AAP) and AAP in participants with chemotherapy-naive (participants who did not receive any chemotherapy \[treatment of cancer using drugs\]) metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) (cancer of prostate gland \[gland that makes fluid that aids movement of sperm\]).

Inclusion Criteria:
* Adenocarcinoma of the prostate
* Metastatic disease as documented by technetium-99m (99mTc) bone scan or metastatic lesions by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans (visceral or lymph node disease). If lymph node metastasis is the only evidence of metastasis, it must be greater than or equal to (\>=) 2 centimeter (cm) in the longest diameter
* Castration-resistant prostate cancer demonstrated during continuous androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), defined as 3 rises of PSA, at least 1 week apart with the last androgen deprivation therapy (PSA) \>= 2 nanogram per milliliters (ng/mL)
* Participants who received a first generation anti-androgen (eg, bicalutamide, flutamide, nilutamide) must have at least a 6-week washout prior to randomization and must show continuing disease (PSA) progression (an increase in PSA) after the washout period
* Prostate cancer progression documented by prostate-specific antigen (PSA) according to the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group (PCWG2) or radiographic progression of soft tissue according to modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST) modified based on PCWG2, or radiographic progression of bone according to PCWG2
* Participants who cross-over from Prednisone alone to open-label apalutamide plus AAP should still be in the double-blind phase of the study, should be receiving AAP alone and should have ECOG 0-1-2.
