Abstract 201P
Background
Asymptomatic nmCRPC patients (pts) would benefit from treatments (Tx) that delay disease progression and maintain quality of life (QoL), with minimal Tx-related adverse events (AEs). In ARAMIS, darolutamide (DARO) prolonged metastasis-free survival vs placebo (PBO) (40 vs 18 months; HR 0.41; 95% CI 0.34–0.50; P < 0.001); impact on prostate-specific antigen (PSA), disease progression, safety, and QoL in ARAMIS is reported here.
Methods
Pts were randomized to DARO 600 mg twice daily (n = 955) or PBO (n = 554), while androgen deprivation therapy continued in both arms. Secondary/exploratory endpoints included safety, time to cytotoxic chemotherapy, time to antineoplastic therapy, time to PSA progression, and QoL.
Results
DARO substantially delayed times to PSA progression (33 vs 7 months; HR 0.13; 95% CI 0.11–0.16; P < 0.001), cytotoxic chemotherapy (not reached [NR] vs 38 months; HR 0.43; 95% CI 0.31–0.60; P < 0.001), and antineoplastic therapy (NR vs NR; HR 0.33; 95% CI 0.23–0.47; P < 0.001) vs PBO. The distribution of sites of distant metastases was similar between groups: 60/130 (46%) and 62/158 (39%) had bone-only metastases, 41/130 (32%) and 63/158 (40%) had lymph node-only metastases, while 17/130 (13%) and 22/158 (14%) had both lymph node and bone metastases, in the DARO and PBO groups, respectively. Distant metastases at other sites were also similar, occurring in 12/130 (9%) and 11/158 (7%) of pts in the DARO and PBO groups, respectively. Incidences of Tx-emergent AEs with ≥5% frequency or of grade 3–5 were comparable between DARO and PBO; none except fatigue occurred in > 10% of pts. Discontinuation rates due to AEs were 8.9% with DARO and 8.7% with PBO. AEs noted with other androgen receptor inhibitors (including fracture, falls, seizures, hypertension and cognitive disorder) showed minimal or no difference in incidence between groups. DARO maintained QoL, and delayed the onset of pain and disease-related urinary symptoms compared with PBO.
Conclusions
DARO delays disease progression and subsequent Tx for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer vs PBO, maintaining QoL without increasing incidence of key AEs.
