    The degarelix doses were administered into the abdominal wall every 28 days. A starting dose of 240 mg (40 mg/mL) degarelix was administered on Day 0 as two 3 mL subcutaneous (s.c.) injections. The subsequent doses of 80 mg (20 mg/mL) degarelix were administered as single 4 mL s.c. injections every 28 days for the rest of the study.

The subsequent monthly degarelix maintenance dose of 160 mg (40 mg/mL) degarelix were administered as single 4 mL s.c. injections every 28 days.

    During the main CS21 study, leuprolide (Lupron Depot) 7.5 mg was injected into the muscle every 28 days for one year. Starting one year after the first dose of leuprolide, degarelix doses were administered into the abdominal wall every 28 days. First, a starting dose of 240 mg (40 mg/mL) degarelix was administered as two 3 mL subcutaneous (s.c.) injections and one month later the participants received either subsequent monthly degarelix maintenance doses of 80 mg (20 mg/mL) or 160 mg (40 mg/mL) every 28 days for the rest of the study. Following the implementation of a protocol amendment, all patients received a monthly degarelix maintenance dose of 80 mg (20 mg/mL) for the rest of the study.

primary Outcomes
  1. description
    This outcome measure included incidence of markedly abnormal changes in blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), pulse, and body weight. The table presents the number of participants with normal baseline (from main CS21 study, NCT00295750) and at least one post-baseline markedly abnormal value during CS21A.
    measure
    Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Values in Vital Signs and Body Weight
    time Frame
    Up to 4 years of treatment
  2. description
    This outcome measure included incidence of markedly abnormal changes in safety laboratory values. The table presents the number of participants with normal baseline (from main CS21 trial, NCT00295750) and at least one post-baseline markedly abnormal value during CS21A. Only the laboratory variables that had at least five percentages of participants in either group with abnormal value are presented, more variables were included in the study. ULN=Upper limit of normal.
    measure
    Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Values in Safety Laboratory Variables
    time Frame
    Up to 4 years of treatment
secondary Outcomes
  1. description
    PSA progression was defined as two consecutive increases of 50%, and at least 5 ng/mL, compared to nadir (obtained in either CS21, NCT00295750, or CS21A). The figures below present the percentage of participants with no PSA progression at each of the selected time points (there were more time points in the study) along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI).
    measure
    Percentage of Participants With no Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Progression
    time Frame
    Until all participants have received at least 5 years of treatment and at a frequency of every 3 months
  2. description
    The results below present the percentage of participants of having testosterone \<=0.5 ng/mL at each of the selected time points (there were more time points in the study) from Day 28 in CS21 (NCT00295750) until the end of the CS21A study. In all treatment groups approximately 3% per year of the participants had at least one testosterone \>0.5 ng/mL during the study.
    measure
    Percentage of Participants With Testosterone Level Maintained at <=0.5 ng/mL From Day 28 in CS21 and Onwards
    time Frame
    Until all participants have received at least 5 years of treatment and at a frequency of every 6 months
  3. measure
    Serum Levels of Testosterone From the Time of Switch From Leuprolide to Degarelix up to Day 56
    time Frame
    From time of switch to Day 56
  4. measure
    Serum Levels of PSA From the Time of Switch From Leuprolide to Degarelix to Day 56
    time Frame
    From time of switch to Day 56
  5. measure
    Serum Levels of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) From the Time of Switch From Leuprolide to Degarelix to Day 56
    time Frame
    From time of switch to Day 56
  6. measure
    Serum Levels of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) From the Time of Switch From Leuprolide to Degarelix to Day 56
