Apa/Enza-short Study: Shorter Treatment With Androgen Receptor Pathway Inhibitor in Patients With Low-volume Metastatic Castration-sensitive Prostate Cancer

Apa/Enza Short Study: Shortened 12 Months Duration of Androgen Receptor Signaling Agent in Combination With Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Patients With Low Volume Castration-sensitive Prostate Cancer: a Randomized Nationwide Study

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the outcomes of a shorter treatment duration (12 months) with an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI), in this study Apalutamide or Enzalutamide, in patients with low-volume, hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancer (mCSPC), with the possibility to restart treatment if needed. The main research question is whether discontinuation of ARPI therapy after 12 months, with the option to restart treatment upon disease progression, is non-inferior to continued ARPI therapy, potentially reducing toxicity and costs. Eligible patients will be randomized after completing 12 months of ARPI treatment, to one of the following two arms: 1. ADT + continued ARPI (Apalutamide or Enzalutamide) 2. ADT + ARPI discontinued after 12 months, with the option to resume ARPI in case of a confirmed PSA rise. The confirmatory PSA sample must be obtained at least 4 weeks after the initial rise. This study aims to minimize toxicity associated with prolonged use of ARPIs in patients with low-volume, hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancer.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether a shorter course of androgen receptor pathway inhibitor therapy — specifically apalutamide or enzalutamide — is effective and safe for men with low-volume metastatic prostate cancer that has not yet been surgically castrated (castration-sensitive). **You may be eligible if...** - You are male and 18 or older - You have a confirmed diagnosis of prostate cancer spread to distant sites (metastatic) - Your metastatic disease is low-volume (fewer than 4 bone lesions and no organs involved) - Your disease is newly diagnosed or has not yet been treated with hormone therapy **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have high-volume metastatic disease (4 or more bone lesions with lesions beyond spine/pelvis, or organ spread) - You have previously received hormone therapy or chemotherapy for prostate cancer - You have significant heart or liver problems Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
