Registered outcomes4

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryOverall SurvivalUp to 60 monthsOverall survival is defined as the time interval from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause.
SecondaryTime to Prostate-Specific Antigen Progression According to Prostate Specific Antigen Working Group CriteriaUp to 12 months
The time interval from the date of randomization to the date of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression as defined in the protocol-specific Prostate Specific Antigen Working Group (PSAWG) criteria, namely, a PSA level of at least 5 ng/ml that has risen on at least 2 successive occasions, at least 2 weeks apart.
SecondaryNumber of Patients Achieving a Prostate-Specific Antigen Decline >=50%Up to 12 monthsA prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response was defined as a \>=50% decline from baseline.
SecondaryRadiographic Progression-free SurvivalUp to 11 months
Radiographic progression-free survival is based on imaging studies according to modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST): baseline lymph node size must be \>=2.0 cm to be considered a target lesion; progression on bone scans with \>=2 new lesions not consistent with tumor flare, confirmed on a second scan \>=6 weeks later that shows \>=1 additional new lesion.
