Brief Summary:
This is a multi-center phase III study to compare the clinical benefit of androgen deprivation therapy with or without docetaxel with or without local radiotherapy with or without abiraterone acetate and prednisone in patient with metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Metastatic Prostate Cancer Drug: abiraterone acetate Radiation: radiotherapy Other: Androgen Deprivation Therapy Drug: Docetaxel Phase 3

Detailed Description:

Eligible patients can be randomize in the trial after his consent form has been signed, and after all inclusion and non-inclusion criteria have been checked.

The randomisation will result in the allocation of arm A (ADT +docetaxel), arm B (ADT +docetaxel +Abiraterone), arm C (ADT +docetaxel +radiotherapy) or arm D (ADT +docetaxel +Abiraterone +radiotherapy) in a 1:1:1:1 ratio.

The randomization will be stratified (by minimization) according to:

  • enrolment center,
  • performance status (0 vs. 1-2)
  • disease extent: lymph nodes only vs. bone (with or without lymph nodes) vs. presence of visceral metastases.

CRPC is defined by cancer progression (either a confirmed PSA rise or a radiological progression) with serum testosterone being at castrated levels (<0.50 ng/mL).

When the CRPC stage is reached, castration (either LHRH agonist or LHRH antagonist) will be maintained in all patients.

Investigators will be free to manage patients reaching CRPC at their discretion (using for example docetaxel, zoledronic acid, denosumab, sipuleucel-T, radium-223, cabazitaxel, etc) according to local uses and guidelines.

Abiraterone may be used in arm A and C if abiraterone has become the standard treatment for CRPC when this stage is reached.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Survival [ Time Frame: 7.5 years after the first inclusion ]
    Overall and radiographic progression-free survival in patients with metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer treated by androgen deprivation therapy and docetaxel

  2. Survival [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
    Overall and radiographic progression-free survival in hormone-naïve prostate cancer patients with low metastatic burden whatever the standard of care received


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Castration resistance-free survival (CRFS) [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  2. Serious Genitourinary event-free survival (S-GU-EFS) [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  3. Prostate cancer specific survival [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  4. Time to next skeletal-related event [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  5. PSA response rate [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  6. Prospective correlative study of PSA response/progression at 8 months after initation of ADT [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  7. Time to pain progression [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
    will be evaluated by questionnaires

  8. Time to chemotherapy for CRPC [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
  9. Quality of life questionnaire - Core 30 (QLQ-C30) [ Time Frame: At baseline, 6 months, 18 months, and at the end of treatment (up to 9.5 years) ]

    Developed by the EORTC, this self-reported questionnaire assesses the health-related quality of life of cancer patients in clinical trials.

    The questionnaire includes five functional scales (physical, everyday activity, cognitive, emotional, and social), three symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting), a health/quality of life overall scale, and a number of additional elements assessing common symptoms (including dyspnea, loss of appetite, insomnia, constipation, and diarrhea), as well as, the perceived financial impact of the disease.

    All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level.


  10. Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P) [ Time Frame: At baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and at the end of treatment (up to 9.5 years) ]
    The FACT-P is a self-assessment questionnaire to estimate the health-related quality of life in men with prostate cancer. This questionnaire, composed of 39 items consists of four subscales: Physical Well-Being (7 items), Social/Family Well-Being (7 items), Emotional Well-Being (6 items), Functional Well-Being (7 items), and prostate cancer subscale (12 items). Subscales are rated on 5-point Likert-type scale (from 0 = "Not at all" to 4 = "Very much"). For all subscales, a higher score represents better quality of life.

  11. Toxicity (with a specific focus on the use of long-term low-dose steroids) [ Time Frame: Throughout study completion, up to 9.5 years ]
    The National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 (NCI-CTCAE v4.0) is widely accepted in the community of oncology research as the leading rating scale for adverse events. This scale, divided into 5 grades (1 = "mild", 2 = "moderate", 3 = "severe", 4 = "life-threatening", and 5 = "death") determined by the investigator, will make it possible to assess the severity of the disorders.

  12. Changes in bone mineral density [ Time Frame: At baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months ]
    X-rays are used to measure how many grams of calcium and other bone minerals are packed into a segment of bone

  13. Correlation of biomarkers with outcome [ Time Frame: 9.5 years after the first inclusion ]
    Correlation of biomarkers with outcome, including the prognostic and predictive value on OS, rPFS and CRFS of a neuro-endocrine differentiation of the prostate cancer in the pathological specimen.
