What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in proportion of patients with serum testosterone ≤0.5 ng/mL over time

    Measured: Baseline and for one year

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Changes in serum level of testosterone over time

    Measured: Baseline and for one year

  2. Changes in serum level of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) over time

    Measured: Baseline and for one year

  3. Changes in serum level of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) over time

    Measured: Baseline and for one year

  4. Changes in serum level of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) over time

    Measured: Baseline and for one year

  5. Time to the recurrence of serum PSA

    Measured: For one year

  6. Safety evaluated by the incidence of Adverse Events (AEs), physical exam and results of lab tests

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing degarelix in people with Prostatic Neoplasms, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 8 sites in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in proportion of patients with serum testosterone ≤0.5 ng/mL over time (time frame: Baseline and for one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Oct 2024.
