Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Overall Survival | From randomization to date of failure (death) or last follow-up. Analysis occurs after all patients have been potentially followed for 8 years. | Survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of death from any cause and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier Method. Patients last know to be alive are censored at date of last contact. |
| Secondary | Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Failure by American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ASTRO) Definition | From randomization to date of failure (3 consecutive rises) or death or last follow-up. Analysis occurred after patients have been potentially followed for 5 years. | Failure is defined as having 3 consecutive elevations of post-treatment PSA or starting hormones after one or more elevations in post-treatment PSA but before three consecutive elevations were documented. The failure day date was the midpoint between last non-rising PSA and first PSA rise. Failure rates are estimated by the cumulative incidence method. Patients last known to be alive are censored at date of last contact. |
| Secondary | Disease Specific Survival | From randomization to date of failure (death due to prostate cancer) or death from other cause or last follow-up. Analysis occurs at the same time as the primary endpoint. | Survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of death due to prostate cancer and is estimated by the cumulative incidence method. Patients last know to be alive are censored at date of last contact. Death due to prostate cancer was defined as primary cause of death certified as due to prostate cancer, or death in association with any of the following conditions: Further clinical tumor progression occurring after initiation of salvage anti-tumor therapy, a rise (that exceeds 1.0 ng/ml) in the serum PSA level on at least two consecutive occasions that occurred during or after salvage androgen suppression therapy, or disease progression in the absence of any anti-tumor therapy. |
| Secondary | Local Progression | From randomization to date of failure (local progression) or death or last follow-up. Analysis occurs at the same time as the primary endpoint. | Failure time is defined as time from randomization to the date of progression (increase in palpable abnormality), failure of regression of the palpable tumor by two years, and redevelopment of a palpable abnormality after complete disappearance of previous abnormalities. Failure rates are estimated by the cumulative incidence method. Patients last know to be alive are censored at date of last contact. |
| Secondary | Distant Metastases | From randomization to date of failure (distant metastasis) or death or last follow-up. Analysis occurs at the same time as the primary endpoint. | Failure time is defined as time from randomization to the date of documented regional nodal recurrence or development of distant disease. Failure rates are estimated by the cumulative incidence method. Patients last know to be alive are censored at date of last contact. |
| Secondary | Grade 2 or Greater Genitourinary or Gastrointestinal Toxicity | From the start of treatment to 90 days. Analysis occurs at the same time as the primary endpoint | Rate of acute 2+ grade genitourinary(GU)/gastrointestinal(GI) toxicity graded by Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) version 2.0 |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Erectile Disfuction at 12 Months | Twelve months from randomization | The International Index of Erectile Function Questionnaire (IIEF) is the primary measure for erectile function (ED). IIEF question number 1 ("How often were you able to get an erection during sexual activity?") is scored from: none/almost never (response 0-1) or \< half the time (response 2-3) to most times/almost always/always (response 4-5). A response of 0 to 3 on question number 1 of the IIEF is considered erectile dysfunction. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Improved, Stable, and Declined Spitzer Quality of Life Index (SQLI) at 12 Months | Baseline and 12 months from randomization | The SQLI measures quality of life for patients with cancer and other chronic diseases. Possible scores range from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating a better outcome. Change from Baseline is defined as 12 month SQLI - baseline SQLI and is classified as follows: Improvement: when change \>= to the standard error of measurement with reliability quotient of 0.5 (SEM); Stable: when -SEM \< change \< SEM; Declined: when change \<= SEM. |
| Secondary | Quality Adjusted Survival by SQLI | From randomization to 5 years. | |
| Secondary | Tumor Control Probability | From randomization to date of failure (tumor progression) or last follow-up. Analysis can occur any time after the primary endpoint analysis. |
