Brief summary
The purpose of this clinical phase 3 randomized trial is to compare two different dosing schedules of Docetaxel in combination with ADT and Darolutamide in subjects with mHSPC. The main question aims to compare grade 3-5 adverse events (AEs) in patients with mHSPC treated with 6 cycles of either Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 every 3 weeks in a 3 week cycle or 6 cycles of Docetaxel 50 mg/m2 every 2 weeks in a 4 week cycle in combination with Darolutamide + ADT. The primary endpoint are Grade 3-5 AEs, followed by neutropenia grade 3/4 + grade 5 AEs to be analysed 28 weeks after last patient first Docetaxel dose (LPFD).
Detailed description
This is a randomized, open, controlled, multicenter phase III clinical trial. Approximately 250 patients with mHSPC who are candidates for docetaxel, darolutamide and ADT will be randomized (1:1 ratio) to one of the following study arms: * Arm 1: 6 x Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 every 3 weeks of a 3 week cycle * Arm 2: 6 x Docetaxel 50 mg/ m2 every 2 weeks of a 4 week cycle Subjects will be stratified at randomization for the extent of disease and for Alkaline Phosphatase levels. All subjects must receive ADT of Investigator's choice (LHRH agonist/antagonists or orchiectomy) and darolutamide as standard therapy. Six cycles of docetaxel are be administered after randomization according to either Arm 1 or Arm 2. After completion of study drug treatment, subjects will continue with the observation period. During the observation period all subjects will continue with Darolutamide+ADT until occurrence of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Written informed consent * Males ≥18 years of age * Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of prostate * Investigator assessed metastatic disease documented either by a positive bone scan, or for soft tissue or visceral metastases, either by contrast-enhanced abdominal/pelvic/chest computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan assessed. Metastatic disease is defined as either malignant lesions in bone scan or soft tissue/visceral lesions according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. Lymph nodes are measurable if the short axis diameter is ≥15 mm, soft tissue/visceral lesions are measurable if the long axis diameter is ≥10 mm. * Subjects with lymph node metastases only (either below the aortic bifurcation (N1) or above the aortic bifurcation (M1a)) will not be eligible for the study. * Subjects must be candidates for ADT, docetaxel and darolutamide therapy per Investigator's judgment * Started ADT (LHRH agonist/antagonist or orchiectomy) with or without first generation anti-androgen, but no longer than 12 weeks before randomization. For subjects receiving LHRH agonists, treatment in combination with a first generation anti-androgen for at least 4 weeks, prior to randomization is recommended. First generation anti-androgen has to be stopped prior to randomization. * An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1 * Blood counts at Screening: hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL, absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5x109/L, platelet count ≥100x109/L (subject must not have received any growth factor within 4 weeks or a blood transfusion within 7 days of the hematology laboratory sample obtained at Screening) * Screening values of serum alanine aminotransferase and/or aspartate transaminase ≤1.5x upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin ≤ULN, creatinine ≤2.0x ULN Sexually active male subjects must agree to use condoms as an effective barrier method and refrain from sperm donation, and/or their female partners of reproductive potential to use a method of effective birth control, during the treatment with darolutamide and for 3 months after the end of the treatment with darolutamide and 6 months after treatment with docetaxel.
