Time to first symptomatic skeletal event (using the BPI-SF) | |
Time to clinically relevant pain | |
To compare enzalutamide plus LHRHa and enzalutamide alone vs placebo plus LHRHa based on PSA at week 36 (ie, whereby treatment is suspended at week 37 in participants with undetectable levels of ≤0.2 ng/mL) | Proportion of participants per group who remain treatment-free 2 years after suspension of study drug treatment at week 37 due to undetectable PSA |
Proportion of participants per group with undetectable PSA 2 years after suspension of study drug treatment at week 37 due to undetectable PSA | |
Proportion of participants per group with undetectable PSA at 36 weeks on study drug | |
Time to resumption of any hormonal therapy following suspension at week 37 due to undetectable PSA | |
To compare PROs in enzalutamide plus LHRHa and enzalutamide alone arms vs placebo plus LHRHa arm | PROs as measured by FACT-P, EQ-5D-5L and EORTC QLQ-PR25 |
