Summary

Italian multicenter study, will enroll \~566 pts with oligometastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer who are candidates to receive treatment with apalutamide.

After 6 months from the start of treatment, patients will be randomized to receive local treatment based on the investigator's choice ( either one between primary radiotherapy or cytoreductive prostatectomy), in addition to apalutamide, or to continue just with medical therapy.

Conditions

  • Metastatic Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mHSPC)

Interventions

DRUG

APA + ADT

All participants will receive apalutamide 240 mg (4 x 60 mg) tablets orally once daily. Apalutamide is distributed in Italy under the trade name of Erleada® 60 mg. All patients not undergoing surgical castration should also continue medical castration by taking a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRHa) analogue during treatment.

PROCEDURE

Local Treatmetn RT or RP

Patients who will undergo radiotherapy as a local treatment must be treated according to the following scheme: External beam radiotherapy administered at 36 Gy in six consecutive weekly fractions of 6 Gy, or 55 Gy in 20 daily fractions of 2・75 Gy over 4 weeks. Radiation therapy will be given with the patient supine and with a full bladder and an empty rectum. The planned target volume is prostate only, with an 8 mm margin posteriorly and a 10 mm margin elsewhere. No RT on lymph nodes is foreseen. RT should begin 6 months after the first dose of apalutamide (+/- 2 weeks). Radical prostatectomy should be performed 6 months after the first dose of apalutamide (+/- 2 weeks).
