What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)

    Percentage of change from baseline to 6 months (or earlier for those who discontinue study therapy)

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Tolerability of Radium-223 therapy

    Proportion of patients who complete 6 times injections of radium-223

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Evaluation for bone metastasis by 18F-NaF-PET

    Fractional decline of intensity of tracer uptake measured by SUVmax on 18F-NaF-PET at 1, 3, 6 months.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6 months

  3. Evaluation for bone metastasis by bone scintigraphy

    The change of Bone Scan Index (BSI) by bone scintigraphy at 1, 3, 6 months.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6 months

  4. Overall Survival Rate

    Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from the registration to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive.

    Measured: 3 years

  5. Time to occurrence of Symptomatic Skeletal-related Events (SSEs)

    Time to occurrence of SSEs are defined asthe time from registration to the date of the occurrence of SSEs (symptomatic fracture, surgery or radiation to bone, or spinal cord compression).

    Measured: 1 year

  6. Time to occurrence of visceral metastasis

    Time to occurrence of visceral metastasis was defined as the time from registration to the date of the occurrence of a visceral metastasis for each patient.

    Measured: 1 year

  7. Time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy

    The time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy is defined as the time from registration to the date of initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy.

    Measured: 1 year

  8. Changes in Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

    Percent change in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) from baseline at 6 months.

    Measured: 6 months

  9. Changes From Baseline for Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)

    The change for the BPI-SF (Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form) score was calculated.

    Measured: 6 months

  10. Changes From Baseline for Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P)

    The change for the FACT-P TOI domain (physical and social well-being and prostate specific score) was calculated.

    Measured: 6 months

  11. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability)

    Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ra-223 in combination with enzalutamide in people with Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer and Bone Metastases, 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 17 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Changes in Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (time frame: 6 months). 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 9 Sep 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
