Inclusion Criteria:
* Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate at initial biopsy, without neuroendocrine differentiation, signet cell, or small cell features;
* Prostate cancer initially treated by radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy (including brachytherapy) or both, with curative intent;
* PSA doubling time ≤ 9 months;
* Screening PSA by the central laboratory ≥ 1 ng/mL for patients who had radical prostatectomy (with or without radiotherapy) as primary treatment for prostate cancer and at least 2 ng/mL above the nadir for patients who had radiotherapy only as primary treatment for prostate cancer;
* Serum testosterone ≥ 150 ng/dL (5.2 nmol/L).
Exclusion Criteria:
* Prior or present evidence of distant metastatic disease as assessed by radiographic imaging;
* Prior hormonal therapy. Neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy to treat prostate cancer ≤ 36 months in duration and ≥ 9 months before randomization, or a single dose or a short course (≤ 6 months) of hormonal therapy given for rising PSA ≥ 9 months before randomization is allowed.;
* Prior cytotoxic chemotherapy, aminoglutethimide, ketoconazole, abiraterone acetate, or enzalutamide for prostate cancer;
* Prior systemic biologic therapy, including immunotherapy, for prostate cancer;
* Major surgery within 4 weeks before randomization;
* Treatment with 5-α reductase inhibitors (finasteride, dutasteride) within 4 weeks of randomization;
* Known or suspected brain metastasis or active leptomening…

Timeframe: From randomization until radiographic progression or death without radiographic progression, whichever occurred first (up to Month 98 when at least 197 MFS events occurred among the 3 treatment groups)
