NCT ID NCT05171387

First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether adding darolutamide to standard hormone therapy (ADT) helps Chinese men with a high-risk form of prostate cancer that has not spread but is no longer responding to hormone therapy alone. Darolutamide blocks the effects of male hormones on cancer cells, potentially slowing tumor growth. Researchers will measure how well the treatment lowers PSA levels, a marker of cancer activity, and monitor for side effects.
