Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With 18-Months Radiographic Progression-free Survival (rPFS)

Percent Change From Randomization in Severity of Adjusted Hot Flash Score at 18 Months
Severity adjusted hot flash score will be calculated from the hot flash diary which will be daily filled by the participants.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Mean Percentage Changes From Randomization in Severity Adjusted Hot Flash Score and Hot Flash Frequency
Severity adjusted hot flash score and hot flash frequency will be calculated from the hot flash diary which will be daily filled by the participants.
Second Progression-free Survival (PFS2)
PFS2 is defined as the duration from the date of randomization to the first occurrence of investigator-determined disease progression on the first subsequent therapy after study drug discontinuation or death, whichever occurs first.
Overall Survival (OS)
Overall survival time is defined as the duration from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause.
Prostate Cancer-specific Survival
Prostate cancer-specific survival is defined as the duration from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/ biological agent under study. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a participant, or is an important medical event.

Participants will be asked to rate their current symptoms as compared to when they started the study, using the following 7-point scale: 1 = Much better, 2 = Moderately better, 3 = A little better, 4 = No change, 5 = A little worse, 6 = Moderately worse, and 7 = Much worse. A higher PGIC score indicates greater worsening of symptoms.

Title
Time to Recovery From Baseline as Assessed by EORTC-QLQ-C30
Description
Time to recovery from baseline as assessed by EORTC-QLQ-C30 will be reported. The EORTC-QLQ-C30 (Version 3), is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. The recall period for most items is the past week. EORTC-QLQ-C30 includes 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), a global health status/quality of life scale, and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). The item and scale scores are transformed to a 0 to 100 scale. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus, a high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning and a high score for the global health status represents high HRQoL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problems.
