Stage I Prostate Adenocarcinoma AJCC v7Phase 2/3NCT03070886
Antiandrogen Therapy and Radiation Therapy With or Without Docetaxel in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer That Has Been Removed by Surgery
A Phase 2/3 study testing Bicalutamide, Degarelix and Docetaxel in people with Stage I Prostate Adenocarcinoma AJCC v7 and Stage II Prostate Adenocarcinoma AJCC v7, run by NRG Oncology at 313 sites in 3 countries.
Trial summary
This randomized phase II/III trial studies docetaxel, antiandrogen therapy, and radiation therapy to see how well it works compared with antiandrogen therapy and radiation therapy alone in treating patients with prostate cancer that has been removed by surgery. Androgen can cause the growth of prostate cells. Read more about this study

Official title: Phase II-III Trial of Adjuvant Radiotherapy and Androgen Deprivation Following Radical Prostatectomy With or Without Adjuvant Docetaxel
This randomized phase II/III trial studies docetaxel, antiandrogen therapy, and radiation therapy to see how well it works compared with antiandrogen therapy and radiation therapy alone in treating patients with prostate cancer that has been removed by surgery. Androgen can cause the growth of prostate cells. Antihormone therapy may lessen the amount of androgen made by the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving antiandrogen therapy and radiation therapy with or without docetaxel after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
- To assess the benefit of docetaxel as measured by improvement in freedom from progression (phase II) and subsequently metastasis free survival (phase III) when given in combination with radiation and androgen deprivation in treatment of high risk prostate cancer post-radical prostatectomy.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To assess overall survival. II. To assess local time to progression. III. To assess undetectable prostate-specific antigen (PSA) with a non-castrate testosterone at 2.5 years post treatment.
IV. To assess the utility of genomic profiling in making adjuvant therapy decisions post-prostatectomy.
- To assess toxicity of docetaxel in the post-operative setting when combined with radiation and androgen deprivation therapy.
VI. To assess treatment response by genomically defined sub-groups of prostate cancer patients.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
- To optimize quality assurance methodologies and processes for radiotherapy and imaging, with machine learning strategies.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive androgen deprivation therapy comprising leuprolide acetate, goserelin acetate, degarelix, bicalutamide, flutamide, or nilutamide for 6 months. Beginning 8 weeks after the start of androgen deprivation therapy, patients receive external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for 7.5 weeks.
ARM II: Patients receive androgen deprivation therapy and EBRT as in Arm I. Within 4-6 weeks after completion of radiation therapy, patients receive docetaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on day 1 of every 21 days for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unexpected toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, and then yearly.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Freedom from progression (FFP) (Phase II)
Will be determined with a one-sided stratified log-rank test when 89 FFP events have been observed. Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed. Events for FFP will be the first occurrence of biochemical failure by prostate specific antigen (PSA) >= 0.4 ng/ml over the nadir PSA confirmed by a second PSA higher than the first by any amount, recurrence (local, regional or distant), institution of secondary androgen deprivation therapy and death from any cause.
Measured: From time of randomization to first event, assessed up to 43 months
Metastasis free survival (MFS) (Phase III)
Will be measured with a one-sided stratified log-rank test when 282 MFS events have been observed. Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed.
Measured: From time of randomization to first occurrence of distant metastasis or death from any cause, assessed up to 9.5 years
Secondary outcomes (6)
Overall survival
Will be analyzed using log-rank methodology and Cox proportional models. Tests for violations of proportionality will performed for the survival models. Fine and Gray's regression also will be used. Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed.
Measured: Time to death from any cause assessed up to 2.5 years
Time to local progression
Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed.
Measured: Baseline to local or regional recurrence ignoring biochemical failure and distant recurrence and censoring for death, assessed up to 2.5 years
Proportion of undetectable prostate specific antigen (PSA) with a non-castrate testosterone
Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed.
Measured: At 2.5 years
Incidence of acute adverse events scored according to the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program active version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events
Will be compared to late grade 3+ adverse events. Univariate logistic regression will be used to model the distribution of acute adverse events. Multiple logistic regression will be used to model the distribution of acute adverse events adjusted for covariates. Both unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed and tested using a one-sided Chi-Square test statistic with the significance level of 0.025. Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed.
Measured: Up to 30 days post radiation therapy
Genomic profiling in making adjuvant therapy decisions
Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed.
Measured: Up to 9 years
Late grade 3+ adverse events scored according to the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program active version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events
Will be compared to acute adverse events. A Fine and Gray's regression model will be used to compare the treatment differences of time to late adverse event with and without adjusting for other covariates. Both unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed and tested using a one-sided. Will be estimated using the cause-specific hazard rate approach and tested using a significance level of 0.025. Both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios and the respective 95% confidence interval will be computed. At least the treatment arm, age, and race (as appropriate) will be considered when it is adjusted in the analysis.
Measured: From protocol treatment starts to the worst late grade 3+ adverse event, assessed up to 9 years

What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2/3 study testing Bicalutamide, Degarelix and Docetaxel in people with Stage I Prostate Adenocarcinoma AJCC v7 and Stage II Prostate Adenocarcinoma AJCC v7, run by NRG Oncology at 313 sites in 3 countries.
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 23 inclusion and 15 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 313 sites in United States, Canada, Puerto Rico. 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 combined 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.
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Freedom from progression (FFP) (Phase II) (time frame: From time of randomization to first event, assessed up to 43 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Sep 2026.
