Detailed Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with apalutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) before and after radical prostatectomy (RP) with pelvic lymph node dissection (pLND) in participants with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer results in an improvement in pathological complete response (pCR) rate and metastasis-free survival (MFS) as compared to placebo plus ADT.

Arms & Interventions

Apalutamide + ADTexperimental

Participants will receive androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus oral administration of apalutamide 240 milligram (mg) (4 tablets of 60 mg each) daily in each cycle (each cycle of 28 days). Participants will receive six cycles of treatment, followed by radical prostatectomy (RP) with pelvic lymph node dissection (pLND), followed by an additional six cycles of treatment. A Long-Term Extension (LTE) may be initiated at sponsor's discretion after completion of the primary endpoint analysis.

Drug: ApalutamideDrug: Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT)
Placebo + ADTexperimental

Participants will receive ADT with oral administration of matching placebo treatment daily in each cycle (each cycle of 28 days). Participants will receive six cycles of placebo treatment, followed by RP with pLND, followed by an additional six cycles of placebo treatment. A LTE may be initiated at sponsor's discretion after completion of the primary endpoint analysis.

Interventions

Apalutamidedrug

Participants will receive apalutamide 240 mg (4 tablets of 60 mg each) orally once daily.

Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT)drug

Participants will receive a stable regimen of ADT - gonadotropin-releasing hormone analog (agonist or antagonist) (GnRHa). ADT is a kind of hormone therapy for prostate cancer. GnRHa will be administrated to achieve and maintain sub-castrate concentrations of testosterone (50 nanogram per deciliter \[ng/dL\]).

Placebodrug

Participants will receive matching placebo oral tablets daily.
