About this study

Official title: Multicenter, Prospective, Randomised and Comparative Study of AA Therapy and Early Administrating Enzalutamide in Participants With CRPC Previously Treated With CAB Therapy Using Bicalutamide.

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of enzalutamide or alternative AA therapy in CRPC participants who were previously treated with a combined androgen blockade therapy which included bicalutamide (Bic-CAB). Efficacy and safety of enzalutamide and alternative AA therapy will be evaluated, and effective therapy against CRPC after treatment with Bic-CAB will be investigated.

Being tested
Enzalutamide, Flutamide

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Enzalutamide and Flutamide in people with Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer, run by Taro Iguchi, MD, PHD at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 9 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 16 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Percentage of participants whose prostate specific antigen (PSA) decreased 50 percent or more at month 3 (time frame: Month 3). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02346578, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 16 Sep 2021.
