Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall Survival
Baseline until death (approximately up to 4.5 years)

Overall survival was calculated from the date of participant randomization to the date of participant death due to any cause. Participants without documentation of death at time of the analysis were censored as of the date the participant was last known to be alive, or the data cutoff date, whichever was earlier.

Radiographic Progression-free Survival (rPFS)
Baseline until radiographic disease progression or death, whichever occurred first (approximately up to 4.7 years)

rPFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first objective evidence of radiographic disease progression assessed by independent central radiology review or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Radiographic disease progression was evaluated by computerized tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and radionuclide bone scans at regularly scheduled visits. Radiographic disease progression in bone required a confirmatory scan. Radiographic disease progression in soft tissue did not require a confirmatory scan for purposes of analysis. Radiographic disease progression was evaluated by independent central radiology review using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 for soft tissue disease and Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG2) guidelines for bone disease. Participants who did not reach the endpoint were censored at their last assessment.

Phase 2: AUC 0-tau: Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve Zero to the Time of the End of the Dosing Interval for Orteronel
Cycle 1 Day 21: pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 8 hours) post-dose for orteronel; Cycle 2 Day 1: pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 8 hours) post-dose for orteronel
Phase 2: Percentage of Participants With Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Response of 30 Percent (%), 50%, and 90%
Cycle 4 Day 21

PSA response rates (PSA-30, PSA-50, and PSA-90) were defined as greater than or equal to (\>=) 30%, 50%, and 90% reductions, respectively, from baseline in PSA concentration.

Phase 2: Best PSA Response
Cycle 2 Day 1 up to Cycle 12 Day 21

Best PSA response was defined as the maximum PSA percent reduction from baseline at any time beyond Cycle 1.

Frequently asked questions about Orteronel

What is Orteronel used for?

Orteronel is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of prostate cancer, specifically metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. It has been evaluated in Phase 3 clinical trials in combination with prednisone in adult male patients. Orteronel is not approved for any indication and remains in clinical development.

What does Orteronel target?

Orteronel targets CYP17A1, an enzyme involved in androgen biosynthesis. It acts as an inhibitor of CYP17A1. By inhibiting this target, Orteronel is designed to reduce androgen production, which is relevant in prostate cancer. The molecular target is CYP17A1 and the target class is inhibitor.

Who is developing Orteronel?

Orteronel is being developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, which trades under the ticker TAK. Takeda is the sponsor of the clinical development program for Orteronel in prostate cancer.

What phase is Orteronel in?

Orteronel is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational agent and has not been approved by the FDA or any regulatory authority. The Phase 3 program includes completed trials in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

What clinical trials is Orteronel in?

Orteronel has been studied in two completed Phase 3 trials: NCT01193257, which enrolled 1099 participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and NCT01193244, which enrolled 1560 chemotherapy-naive participants with the same condition. Both trials evaluated Orteronel plus prednisone and were randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled.
