NOTE: For OS and PFS, the following parameters were evaluated: treatment group, PCWG2 visceral metastases, Gleason sum at diagnosis, Karnofsky Performance Status, VAS pain score, PSA slope (velocity), alkaline phosphatase, hemoglobin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and prostate-specific antigen level at baseline (PSA). Only parameters found statistically significant in the multivariate model are shown.

a

Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 classification.

b

Remaining variables after backward selection in the intent-to-treat population.

c

log2 transformed.
