Conditions

Prostate Cancer

Brief summary

The purpose of this trial was to find an optimal dose for a new trial drug - degarelix (FE200486) - in the treatment of prostate cancer. Furthermore the safety of the drug was studied. Patients participating were treated with FE200486 on one occasion. Thereafter they came in for visits following a specific schedule until blood samples showed that there was no further effect.

Detailed description

Degarelix was not FDA regulated at the time of the trial. After completion of the trial degarelix has been approved by the FDA and is thus an FDA regulated intervention.

Inclusion criteria

* Written informed consent obtained before any trial related procedures * Male patient with proven prostate cancer in need for endocrine treatment, except for neoadjuvant hormonal therapy * ECOG score to be equal to or above 2 * Testosterone level within age-specific normal range * PSA value equal to or above 2 ng/ml * Life expectancy of at least 6 months

Exclusion criteria

* Previous or current hormonal treatment of prostate cancer * Recent or current treatment with any drugs modifying the testosterone level * Candidate for curative treatment such as prostatectomy or radiotherapy * History of severe asthma, anaphylactic reactions or Quincke's Oedema * Hypersensitivity towards any component of FE200486 * Cancer disease within the last ten years except for prostate cancer and some skin cancers * Signs of liver impairment shown as elevated serum ALT or serum bilirubin * Other laboratory abnormalities that judged by the investigator would interfere with the patients participation in the trial or the evaluation of the trial results * Presenting with significant neurological, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, psychological, pulmonary, metabolic, endocrine, haematological, dermatological or infectious disorder. In addition any other condition such as excessive alcohol or drug abuse that may interfere with trial participation or influence the conclusion of the trial as judged by the investigator * Mental incapacity or language barrier * Having received an investigational product within the last 12 weeks preceding the trial * Previous participation in this trial

Time From Dosing Until Testosterone Levels >0.5 ng/mL3 monthsIntent-to-treat (ITT) population. This outcome measure is based on one testosterone value \>0.5 ng/mL at Day 28 onwards.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Testosterone Level ≤0.5 ng/mL for at Least 84 Days3 monthsThe table shows the number of participants with testosterone level ≤0.5 ng/mL for at least 84 days.
Time to Testosterone Castration (Testosterone ≤0.5 ng/mL)3 monthsTime to testosterone castration was calculated as the number of days from dosing to the first scheduled visit when testosterone was less than 0.5 ng/mL.
Time to 50% Reduction in Prostate-specific Antigen Levels3 monthsThe time to 50% prostate-specific antigen (PSA) reduction from baseline was defined as the number of days from dosing to the first visit where a 50% reduction in PSA level was reached.
Number of Participants With Testosterone Level ≤0.5 ng/mL for at Least 28 DaysTwo - six monthsThe table shows the number of participants with testosterone level ≤0.5 ng/mL for at least 28 days.
Evaluation of Liver Function Tests3 monthsThe figures presents the number of participants who had abnormal (defined as above upper limit of normal range (ULN)) alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, aspartate aminotransferase levels, and bilirubin levels plus the number of participants who had ALT increases \>3x ULN and ALT increases \>3x ULN with concurrently increased bilirubin \>1.5 ULN.
Participants With Markedly Abnormal Change in Vital Signs and Body Weight3 monthsVital signs and body weight included incidence of markedly abnormal changes in blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), pulse, and body weight at the end of trial as compared to baseline. The table presents the number of participants in each group with normal baseline and markedly abnormal value post-baseline.
Time to 90% Reduction in Prostate-specific Antigen Levels3 monthsThe time to 90% prostate-specific antigen (PSA) reduction from baseline was defined as the number of days from dosing to the first visit where a 90% reduction in PSA level was reached.

Participants With Markedly Abnormal Change in Vital Signs and Body Weight

Vital signs and body weight included incidence of markedly abnormal changes in blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), pulse, and body weight at the end of trial as compared to baseline. The table presents the number of participants in each group with normal baseline and markedly abnormal value post-baseline.

Time frame: 3 months

Population: ITT population. The first value in the category represents the actual clinical reading and the second is the change from baseline for blood pressure (units: millimeters of mercury) and heart rate (units:beats per minute). The weight category includes participants whose percent weight change from baseline fit the stated ranges.

Time to 50% Reduction in Prostate-specific Antigen Levels

The time to 50% prostate-specific antigen (PSA) reduction from baseline was defined as the number of days from dosing to the first visit where a 50% reduction in PSA level was reached.

Time frame: 3 months

Population: ITT population. Patients who did not achieve the actual level of reduction were censored as of the time from dosing for the last available observation.
