Inclusion criteria

* Has given written informed consent before any trial-related activity is performed. A trial-related activity is defined as any procedure that would not have been performed during the normal management of the patient * Has completed the 7-month main trial, FE200486 CS42

Exclusion criteria

* Has been withdrawn/discontinued from the FE200486 CS42 trial * A patient may also not be entered into the CS42A trial at the discretion of the investigator due to safety or lack of efficacy concerns (LH or PSA response) in the CS42 trial.

Recruitment details

The participants were recruited from 9 sites in Korea. All participants had completed the 7-month main study (CS42, NCT01071915) prior to enrollment into this extension study (CS42A). The CS42A study was conducted between 20 September 2010 (FPFV) and 25 April 2012 (LPLV).

Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Values in ECG Variables

This outcome measure included incidence of markedly abnormal changes in ECG variables (PR, QRS, and QT interval, QTcF, and ventricular rate). The figures present the number of participants with normal baseline and at least one post-baseline markedly abnormal value.

Time frame: From baseline (day 0) to end of treatment (up to day 364)

Population: Descriptive statistics provided a view of the 1-year safety of degarelix (CS42 and CS42A safety analysis set).
