Study summary
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs, such as steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase TAK-700, when used with other hormone therapy, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy x rays to kill tumor cells. This may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer when combined with hormone therapy. Studying quality-of-life in patients having cancer treatment may help identify the intermediate- and long-term effects of treatment on patients with prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the use of hormone therapy, including TAK-700, together with radiation therapy in treating patients with prostate cancer.
OBJECTIVES: Primary * To evaluate the difference in overall survival of patients with clinically localized prostate cancer with unfavorable prognostic features between a) standard treatment (androgen-deprivation therapy \[ADT\] + radiotherapy) and b) standard treatment with the addition of 24 months of steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase TAK-700 (TAK-700). Secondary * To characterize differences between the treatment groups with respect to incidence of unexpected grade ≥ 3 adverse events and/or clinically significant decrement in patient-reported quality of life (QOL) among subjects treated with TAK-700. * To compare rates and cumulative incidence of biochemical control (freedom from PSA failure), local/regional progression, and distant metastases. * To compare rate and cumulative incidence of clinical failure, defined as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) \> 25 ng/mL, documented local disease progression, regional or distant metastasis, or initiation of ADT. * To compare prostate cancer-specific survival and other-cause mortality. * To compare the change in severity of fatigue as measured by the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) fatigue short form. * To compare changes in patient-reported QOL as measured by Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC). * To assess quality-adjusted survival using the EQ-5D. * To compare nadir and average serum testosterone at 12 and 24 months during treatment. * To compare changes in hemoglobin A1C, fasting glucose, and fasting insulin during 24 months of systemic treatment and during the first three years of follow-up. * To compare changes in fasting lipid levels during 24 months of treatment and during the first three years of follow-up. * To compare changes in body mass index (BMI) during 24 months of treatment and during the first three years of follow-up. * To compare the incidence of adverse events ascertained via CTCAE version 4. * To compare the rate of recovery of testosterone to \> 230 ng/dL (accepted threshold for supplementation) after 12 and 24 months of follow-up. * To compare the median time to recovery of testosterone to \> 230 ng/dL during the first five years of follow-up. * To assess cumulative incidence of relevant clinical survivorship endpoints including new diagnosis of type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, or osteoporotic fracture. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, randomized study. Patients are stratified according to risk group (see Disease Characteristics) and type of radiation therapy (RT) boost (intensity-modulated RT (IMRT) vs brachytherapy). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. After completion of study therapy, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually thereafter.
Interventions
DRUG
LHRH agonists are administered with a variety of techniques. The manufacturer's instructions should be followed. Begins within 6 weeks after registration (if not started prior) at same time as anti-androgen and TAK-700 (if applicable).
DRUG
Starts at same time as GnRH agonist, ends at end of radiation therapy. Either flutamide (orally 250 mg three times a day) or bicalutamide (orally 50 mg once a day).
DRUG
300 mg twice daily (BID) (600 mg per day) orally, continuously for 2 years starting with ADT.
RADIATION
Starts 8-10 weeks after initiation of ADT. Initially 45 Gy (1.8 Gy / fraction) to prostate and pelvic lymph nodes delivered with 3DCRT/IMRT, then a boost using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), low dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy, or high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy.

Outcomes
Percentage of Participants With Biochemical Failure (Primary Endpoint of Revised Protocol)
Time frame · From randomization to last follow-up. Follow-up schedule: every 3 months from start of treatment for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, then yearly. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.1 years. Five-year rates are reported here.
Note, the revised protocol (see Limitations and Caveats) changed this outcome measure from secondary (original protocol) to primary. Biochemical failure will be defined by the Phoenix definition (PSA ≥ 2 ng/ml over the nadir PSA, the presence of local, regional, or distant recurrence, or the initiation of salvage androgen deprivation therapy. Time to failure is defined as time from randomization to the date of first failure, last known follow-up (censored), or death without failure (competing risk). Failure rates are estimated using the cumulative incidence method, while treatment effect comparisons are based on cause-specific hazards (deaths censored). Five-year rates are provided here.
Percentage of Patients Alive [Overall Survival] (Primary Endpoint of Original Protocol)
Time frame · From randomization to last follow-up. Follow-up schedule: every 3 months from start of treatment for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, then yearly. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.1 years. Five-year rates are reported here.
Note, the revised protocol (see Limitations and Caveats) changed this outcome measure from primary (original protocol) to secondary. Overall survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of death from any cause or last known follow-up (censored). Overall survival rates are estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The protocol specifies that the distributions of failure times be compared between the arms, which is reported in the statistical analysis results. 5-year rates are provided.

Time frame · From randomization to last follow-up. Follow-up schedule: every 3 months from start of treatment for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, then yearly. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.1 years. Five-year rates are reported here.
Time to grade 3 or higher adverse event (event) is defined as time from randomization to the date of first event, last known follow-up (censored), or death without failure (competing risk). Event rates are estimated using the cumulative incidence method, while treatment effect comparisons are based on cause-specific hazards (deaths censored). Five-year rates are provided here.
Percentage of Participants With Local Progression
Time frame · From randomization to last follow-up. Follow-up schedule: every 3 months from start of treatment for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, then yearly. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.1 years. Five-year rates reported.
Local recurrence (failure) is defined as biopsy proven recurrence within the prostate gland. Time to failure is defined as time from randomization to the date of failure, last known follow-up (censored), or death without failure (competing risk).

Distant metastases (failure) is defined as imaging or biopsy demonstrated evidence for systemic recurrence. Biopsy was not required, however it was encouraged in absence of a rising PSA. Time to failure is defined as time from randomization to the date of first failure, last known follow-up (censored), or death without failure (competing risk). Failure rates are estimated using the cumulative incidence method, while treatment effect comparisons are based on cause-specific hazards (deaths censored). Five-year rates are provided here. Note, the protocol lists this endpoint as regional or distant metastasis, but regional progression data was not collected.
Percentage of Participants With General Clinical Treatment Failure
Time frame · From randomization to last follow-up. Follow-up schedule: every 3 months from start of treatment for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, then yearly. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.1 years. Five-year rates are reported here.
General clinical treatment failure (GCTF) is defined as: PSA \> 25 ng/ml, documented local disease progression, regional or distant metastasis, or initiation of salvage androgen deprivation therapy. Failure time is defined as time from registration to the date of failure, last known follow-up (censored), or death without failure (competing risk). Failure rates are estimated using the cumulative incidence method, while treatment effect comparisons are based on cause-specific hazards (deaths censored). Five-year rates are provided here.
Percentage of Participants With Death Due to Prostate Cancer
Time frame · From randomization to last follow-up. Follow-up schedule: every 3 months from start of treatment for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, then yearly. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.1 years. Five-year rates are reported here.
Time to prostate cancer death is defined as time from randomization to the date of death due to prostate cancer, last known follow-up (censored), or death due to other causes (competing risk). Failure rates were to be estimated using the cumulative incidence method. If too few events occur for meaningful estimates, then only counts of events will be reported.
Change in Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Fatigue Short Form at One Year
Time frame · Baseline, one year
The PROMIS Fatigue short form 8a contains 8 questions, each with 5 responses ranging from 1 to 5, evaluating self-reported fatigue symptoms over the past 7 days. The total score is the sum of all questions which is then converted into a pro-rated T-score with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10, with a possible range of 33.1 to 77.8. Higher scores indicate more fatigue. Change is defined as value at one year - value at baseline. Positive change from baseline indicates increased fatigue at one year.
Change in Patient-reported Quality of Life as Measured by Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) Short Form at One Year
Time frame · Baseline, one year
The EPIC-Short Form is a 26-item, validated self-administered tool to assess disease-specific aspects of prostate cancer and its therapies consisting of five summary domains (bowel, urinary incontinence, urinary irritation/obstruction, sexual, and hormonal function). Responses for each item form a Likert scale which are transformed to a 0-100 scale. A domain score is the average of the transformed domain item scores, ranging from 0-100 with higher scores representing better health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Change at one year is defined as one-year value - baseline value. Positive change at one year indicates improved quality of life.
