Official title
Randomized Controlled Trial of Leuprolide Plus Abiraterone Acetate (AA) Versus Relugolix Plus AA for Advanced Prostate Cancer: The REVELUTION-2 Trial
About this study
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Measure cardiovascular outcomes between combination gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (GNRHa, i.e. leuprolide) plus abiraterone acetate (AA) versus gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (GNRH-antagonist, i.e. relugolix) plus AA in men with advanced prostate cancer receiving definitive radiation therapy.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Identify genomic alterations that predispose an individual to enhanced cardiovascular (CV) toxicity following hormone therapy with leuprolide or relugolix in combination with abiraterone acetate.
II. Evaluate serum testosterone kinetics during and after treatment with combination leuprolide+AA versus relugolix+AA.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive leuprolide intramuscularly (IM) or subcutaneously (SC) injection every 3 to 6 months plus oral AA with prednisone daily for up to 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo standard of care radiation therapy. Patients may also receive bicalutamide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 21-30 with first injection of leuprolide at the discretion of the treating provider. All patients undergo pre-treatment and 12-month coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and blood sample collection.
ARM II: Patients receive oral relugolix PO daily plus oral AA with prednisone daily for up to 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo standard of care radiation therapy. All patients undergo pre-treatment and 12-month CCTA and blood sample collection.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 and 60 days for serum testosterone measurement.

Primary outcomes
- • Incidence of ambulatory systolic blood pressure (BP) > 140 or diastolic > 90 (measurement on 2 separate days) (At baseline and up to 12 months)
- • Need for new or escalated anti-hypertensive medication (At baseline and up to 12 months)
- • Incidence of moderate-to-severe atherosclerosis of major coronary vessels (From month 0 to month 12)
