Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of apalutamide to ADT provides superior efficacy in improving radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) or overall survival (OS) for participants with mHSPC.

Primary Outcome

rPFS as assessed by the investigator was defined as the duration from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of radiographic progressive disease or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Radiographic progressive disease was defined as progression of soft tissue lesions measured by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as defined by modified Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
