Brief summary
The study will evaluate if Leuprolide Mesylate is safe and effective in the treatment of subjects with prostate cancer, when administered as two injections twelve weeks apart.
Detailed description
This is a multi-national, multi-center, open-label, single-arm study. All subjects will be males with prostate cancer judged to be candidates for medical androgen ablation therapy and all will receive two injections of LMIS 25 mg twelve-week apart in an unblinded fashion.
