Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Pathological Complete Response Rate (pCR)
at prostatectomy (up to 3 months)

The pathological complete response will be estimated for each arm and reported along with the corresponding 95% confidence interval which will be constructed using the Wilson score method. Formal comparisons between arms will be conducted using Fisher's exact test. Participants in this study with unknown pathological response will be treated as non-responders in the primary analysis.

Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Rate
at prostatectomy (up to 3 months)

The MRD rate will be estimated for each arm and reported along with the corresponding 95% confidence interval which will be constructed using the Wilson score method. Formal comparisons between arms will be conducted using Fisher's exact test. Participants in this study with unknown pathological response will be treated as non-responders in the primary analysis.

Incidence of Adverse Events
up to 15 months

Adverse events will be evaluated using the most recent version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE).

Toxicity Rates
up to 15 months

Toxicity rates (grade 2, grade 3, grade 4, grade ≥ 2, grade ≥ 3, etc.) will be calculated for each study arm and reported along the corresponding 95% confidence intervals. The 95% confidence intervals will be constructed using the Wilson score method.

Secondary Endpoints
Progression-Free Survival (PSA) at 1-year
up to 15 months on study (1 year after prostatectomy)
Residual Cancer Burden (RCB)
at prostatectomy (up to 3 months)
Median Progression-Free Survival
up to 39 months

DegarelixDRUGstandard Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist
pTVG-ARBIOLOGICALDNA vaccine encoding androgen receptor ligand-binding domain
NivolumabDRUGNivolumab is a human programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1)-blocking antibody indicated for the treatment of patients with multiple different types of cancer.
CemiplimabDRUGCemiplimab is a human PD-1 blocking antibody approved for the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, and locally advanced basal cell carcinoma.
FianlimabDRUGLymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) is a protein that is upregulated on activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells following T-cell receptor engagement. Binding of LAG-3 to MHC II on professional antigen-presenting cells suppresses the proliferation, activation, and cytokine secretion of T cells. Fianlimab is a human IgG4 antibody to lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) that blocks LAG-3/MHC II-mediated T-cell inhibition.
