| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: -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;Secondary Objective: -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);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. | — |
