ARASTEP Trial Summary

This trial is researching if a combination of ADT and darolutamide can help men with prostate cancer at high risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) live longer without their cancer getting worse.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men over 18 with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer who've had a rise in PSA levels after local treatments like surgery or radiation. They must be generally healthy, able to consent, and willing to use contraception. Men with certain types of aggressive prostate cancer, previous extensive treatments, or recent other cancers are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares the effectiveness of darolutamide combined with ADT versus placebo plus ADT in preventing cancer progression. Participants will take these treatments orally for 24 months and undergo regular health checks including blood tests and advanced imaging scans to monitor their condition.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects were not explicitly listed but may include those commonly associated with ADT such as fatigue, hot flashes, reduced sexual desire, and bone thinning. Darolutamide could also cause similar side effects due to its action on hormone receptors.
