Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of an initial hormonal treatment gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH Agonist) on 2 biomarkers (PCA3 and TMPRSS2-ERG), in patients with histologically confirmed and advanced stages of prostate cancer. Their characteristics, according to risk factors such as PSA and Gleason score will be determined at baseline and 1, 3 and 6 month post-treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • A histologically confirmed, locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer, and naïve to androgen deprivation therapy, and a candidate for hormonal treatment.
  • An estimated survival time of at least twelve months according to the investigator's assessment.
  • A performance status score ≤ 2 according to the World Health Organisation (WHO) criteria.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Previous surgical castration.
  • Previous or has planned curative prostate cancer therapy (radiation/surgery)
  • Previous hormone therapy (GnRH analogues, estrogens or anti-androgens)
  • Patients with risk of a serious complication in the case of tumour flare (vertebral metastases threatening spinal cord compression or significant obstructive uropathy)
