Summary

PEACE 7 is an international, multicenter, randomized, open-label phase III study that aims at evaluating the efficacy and safety of darolutamide and of stereotactic dose escalated prostate radiotherapy in patients with localised prostate cancer and high-risk features of relapse (defined as patients with at least 2 high-risk criteria from National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) classification) using a factorial (2x2) design. The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of darolutamide and of a stereotactic dose escalated radiotherapy targeting prostate in combination with ADT and pelvic nodal radiotherapy in terms of metastasis-free survival (MSF). Patients will be randomized (1:1:1:1) to receive either: * Arm A (Standard arm): ADT + conventional fractionated or moderately hypo-fractionated prostate radiotherapy including pelvic nodal radiotherapy * Arm B (Experimental arm): ADT + conventional fractionated or moderately hypo-fractionated prostate radiotherapy including pelvic nodal radiotherapy + darolutamide * Arm C (Experimental arm): ADT + conventional fractionated or moderately hypo-fractionated pelvic nodal radiotherapy + Prostate SBRT * Arm D (Experimental arm): ADT + conventional fractionated or moderately hypo-fractionated pelvic nodal radiotherapy + Prostate SBRT + darolutamide Patient will receive systemic treatments (ADT and/or darolutamide) during 2 years where visits on site are planned at D45, D90, D180 and then every 3 months for checkups and follow prostate specific antigen (PSA) level. Metastasis-free survival (MFS) is defined as the time interval from randomization to the date of the appearance of metastasis (on next generation imaging) or death (from any cause), whichever occurs first. Radiographic evaluation will be carried out at the time of biochemical failure (Phoenix criteria) or in case of clinical suspicion. After biochemical failure (Phoenix criteria) radiographic evaluation on next generation imaging (prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) scan (any European Medicines Agency (EMA) approved PSMA tracer)) will be performed every 6 months until a metastatic site of relapse is identified and will be repeated at each subsequent PSA progression.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	Darolutamide	Pharmaceutical form: 300 mg tablets Administration route: oral (PO) Posology: 600 mg twice daily (BID)
RADIATION	Stereotactic Body RadioTherapy (SBRT)	Following randomization, patients will receive dose escalated intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) using normo-fractionation or moderate hypo-fractionation including whole pelvic nodal radiotherapy (WPRT). At study entry, each investigational site will be asked to choose one regimen (normo-fractionation or moderate hypo-fractionation) which will be applied for all patients included by the investigational site in the study. SBRT, experimental treatment, will be used as a boost in Arms C \& D. The placement of 3 to 4 fiducial markers for stereotactic boost is mandatory. SBRT will be applied only on Prostate: 2 times 10 Gy delivered to the prostate with a gap of one week between each SBRT fraction.
DRUG	ADT (Standard of Care)	Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) The ADT treatment will be chosen at the investigator's discretion, and will be administered according to local standard procedures for up to 2 years. Patients who may have received ADT prior joining the study should have started the ADT treatment within a maximum of 6 weeks before randomization. Otherwise ADT will be started on Day 1 (or 14 days at the latest after the randomization).
RADIATION	radiotherapy	Following randomization, patients will receive dose escalated intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) using normo-fractionation or moderate hypo-fractionation including whole pelvic nodal radiotherapy (WPRT). Arm A and Arm B: If Normo-fractionated radiotherapy: Pelvic nodes 46 Gy, seminal vesicles 46-54 Gy and prostate 78 Gy (39 fractions over 8 weeks). If Hypo-fractionated radiotherapy: Pelvic nodes and seminal vesicles 44 Gy in 20 fractions; prostate 60 Gy delivered concomitantly in 20 fractions over 4 weeks. Arm C and Arm D: If Normo-fractionated radiotherapy: Pelvic nodes 46 Gy, seminal vesicles 46 Gy in 23 fractions over 4.5 weeks. If Hypo-fractionated radiotherapy: Pelvic nodes and seminal vesicles 44 Gy in 20 fractions over 4 weeks.
