About this trial

This is a 2x2 factorial randomized, multicenter, international, open phase III trial.

The primary objective is to evaluate the benefit of acetylsalicylic acid and atorvastatin on overall survival (OS) (main endpoint) for patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer starting first line treatment for CRPC

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate and no curative local therapy considered possible

Age ≥ 18 years, life expectancy of at least 6 months

CRPC defined as tumor progression (PSA increase on at least 2 separate values separated by at least 1 week or progression on imaging) while on Androgen Deprivation Therapy (orchiectomy, LHRH agonist or -antagonist) with documented serum testosterone levels ≤ 1.7 nmol/L (≤ 0.50 ng/mL). Ongoing concurrent use of LHRH agonist or antagonist is required if the patient has not been surgically castrated

Presence (M1) or absence (M0) of metastases on imaging

Disqualifiers

Previous localised malignancy within 2 years with the exception of localized non-melanoma skin cancer and Ta or Tis bladder cancer (patients with asymptomatic Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia can be included)

Previous metastatic malignancy within 5 years

Patient currently taking daily acetylsalicylic acid or a daily statin within the last 6 months

Patients with active liver disease (hepatitis B or C, cirrhosis) or unexplained persistent elevations of serum transaminases exceeding 3 times the upper limit of normal or cholestasis
