PREVAIL Trial
XTANDI + GnRH therapy* significantly extended overall survival in mCRPC1
PREVAIL was a multinational, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial of XTANDI + GnRH therapy* in patients with mCRPC who were asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic.1,2

- Number of events: 368 (42%) with XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs 416 (49%) with placebo + GnRH therapy*1
Median overall survival was 35.3 months (95% CI, 32.2-NR) for patients receiving XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs 31.3 months (95% CI, 28.8-34.2) for those receiving placebo + GnRH therapy*1
- At a prespecified interim analysis for overall survival, there was a 29% reduction in the risk of death in patients who received XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs placebo + GnRH therapy* (HR = 0.71 [95% CI, 0.60-0.84]; P < 0.0001)1

XTANDI + GnRH therapy* significantly reduced the risk of radiographic disease progression† in patients with mCRPC1

- Number of events: 118 (14%) with XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs 320 (40%) with placebo + GnRH therapy*1
- Median radiographic progression-free survival was not reached (95% CI, 13.8-NR) with XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs 3.7 months (95% CI, 3.6-4.6) with placebo + GnRH therapy*1
Radiographic progression was assessed with the use of sequential imaging and was defined by bone scan identification of 2 or more new bone lesions with confirmation (PCWG2) and/or RECIST 1.1 criteria for progression of soft-tissue lesions. The primary analysis of radiographic progression-free survival utilized centrally reviewed radiographic assessment of progression.1
Radiographic event was defined as first evidence of disease progression as assessed by independent investigators.1
*Or after bilateral orchiectomy.1
†The patients at risk are those trial subjects from whom radiographic progression-free survival is calculated at each time point.6
XTANDI + GnRH therapy* significantly delayed time to cytotoxic chemotherapy initiation1
17.2 additional months (median) until chemotherapy initiation with XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs placebo + GnRH therapy*1

XTANDI + GnRH therapy* significantly reduced the risk of first skeletal-related event†1

*Or after bilateral orchiectomy.1
†A skeletal-related event was defined as radiation therapy or surgery to bone for prostate cancer, pathologic bone fracture, spinal cord compression, or change of antineoplastic therapy to treat bone pain.1
PREVAIL: Docetaxel and abiraterone acetate were the most frequently prescribed therapies following disease progression on XTANDI + GnRH therapy*7


Use of subsequent therapies occurred after disease progression but during the evaluation period for overall survival7
*Or after bilateral orchiectomy.1
†Patients taking any of the postbaseline antineoplastic therapies that have demonstrated overall survival benefit in clinical trials.7
‡Concomitant use was allowed before study drug discontinuation in patients with confirmed radiographic progression or a skeletal-related event.7
§Patients assigned to the placebo group who received enzalutamide in the open-label period are included in the placebo column for subsequent enzalutamide therapy.7

TERRAIN was a multinational, double-blind, randomized, phase 2 trial comparing XTANDI + GnRH therapy* with bicalutamide + GnRH therapy* in mCRPC patients who were asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and had not received prior chemotherapy.1,8

- Number of events: 72 (39%) with XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs 74 (39%) with bicalutamide + GnRH therapy*1
Radiographic progression-free survival was defined as the time from randomization to the first objective evidence of radiographic progression as assessed by ICR or death, whichever occurred first.1
Radiographic progression was assessed by ICR per PCWG2 criteria and/or RECIST 1.1 criteria for progression of bone and soft-tissue lesions, respectively.1,9
- Median radiographic progression-free survival was 19.5 months (95% CI, 11.8-NR) for patients receiving XTANDI + GnRH therapy* vs 13.4 months (95% CI, 8.2-16.4) for patients receiving bicalutamide + GnRH therapy* (HR = 0.60 [95% CI, 0.43-0.83])1

*Or after bilateral orchiectomy.1
†Disease progression was defined as the presence of 1 or more of the following 3 criteria: 1) PSA progression (≥ 3 measurements of rising PSA concentrations with an interval of at least 1 week between determinations); 2) soft-tissue disease progression defined by RECIST 1.1; 3) bone disease progression defined by at least 2 new lesions on bone scan.8
‡Progression-free survival was defined as the time from randomization to the first progression event, which includes radiographic disease progression, skeletal-related event, initiation of a new antineoplastic therapy, and death.8
§Radiographic progression-free survival was defined as the time from randomization to the first objective evidence of radiographic progression as assessed by ICR or death, whichever occurred first. Radiographic progression was assessed by ICR per PCWG2 criteria and/or RECIST 1.1 criteria for progression of bone and soft-tissue lesions, respectively.1,8
Progression-free survival of XTANDI and bicalutamide was also assessed in patients with mCRPC8
The following results are from the TERRAIN trial that contributed to the clinical body of evidence for XTANDI but are not contained in the US Full Prescribing Information for XTANDI. The US Full Prescribing Information for XTANDI only includes a modified efficacy analysis of the radiographic progression-free survival endpoint, as shown above.

- XTANDI + GnRH therapy* improved progression-free survival, with a 56% reduction in risk of progression event, including death, vs bicalutamide + GnRH therapy* (HR = 0.44 [95% CI, 0.34-0.57]; P < 0.0001)8
- Number of events: 99 (54%) with XTANDI + GnRH therapy* and 141 (74%) with bicalutamide + GnRH therapy* - Median progression-free survival was 15.7 months (95% CI, 11.5-19.4) for patients receiving XTANDI + GnRH therapy* and 5.8 months (95% CI, 4.8-8.1) for patients receiving bicalutamide + GnRH therapy*8
Progression-free survival was a composite endpoint defined as the time from randomization to the first progression event, which included 4 components: (1) radiographic disease progression, (2) initiation of a new antineoplastic therapy, (3) skeletal-related event, or (4) death.8,9 Two of the 4 progression-free survival components as measured in the study (radiographic disease progression and initiation of a new antineoplastic therapy) have limitations that may impact the reliability and objectivity of the progression-free survival endpoint to measure the treatment effects between study drugs:
- “Radiographic disease progression” criteria were different than the standard PCWG2 criteria, which may have led to inflation of the treatment effect of XTANDI. In the US Full Prescribing Information for XTANDI, radiographic progression-free survival was redefined to maintain consistency with PCWG21,8,10
- “Initiation of a new antineoplastic therapy” was not standardized, and the clinical decision on when to initiate a new therapy may have introduced bias1,6,8

PSA changes vs bicalutamide in patients with mCRPC8
PSA data are not reported in the US Full Prescribing Information for XTANDI because PSA is not a reliable surrogate for overall survival. PSA evaluation should be viewed in the context of patient management and the overall physical condition and clinical course of the patient.

- Median time to a PSA progression event was 19.4 months (95% CI, 16.6-NR) for patients receiving XTANDI + GnRH therapy* and 5.8 months (95% CI, 5.6-8.3) for patients receiving bicalutamide + GnRH therapy*8
- Reductions in PSA of ≥ 50% were observed in 82% (151 of 184) of patients receiving XTANDI + GnRH therapy* and 21% (40 of 191) of patients receiving bicalutamide + GnRH therapy*8
