Summary

This study is aimed at evaluating the effects of intermittent hormonal treatment with complete androgen suppression (Leuprorelin 3.75 milligram \[mg\] sustained release \[SR\] and Flutamide) in patients presenting with stage D2 or Tx Nx M1 ≠ M1a metastatic prostrate cancer, with a prostate specific antigen (PSA) level 5-fold higher than normal (PSA greater than or equal to \[≥\] 20 nanogram per milliliter \[ng/mL\], as quantitated by the Hybritech radioimmunoassay) and with a subsequent decline to normal (PSA less than \[\<\] 4 ng/mL) during the initial 6 months of induction treatment. The results will be compared with those obtained after continuous hormonal therapy with complete androgen suppression.
