Inclusion and exclusion criteria, as posted
Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically or cytologically proven prostate cancer. * The prostate cancer should be staged T3-4NxMx or TxN1-3Mx or TxNxM1 according to the TNM classification or the patient should have rising PSA after failed local therapy and be candidate for androgen deprivation therapy. * Serum testosterone levels \>5 nmol/L. * Karnofsky performance index \>40. * Expected survival \> 18 months. * Absence of another malignancy, other than local dermatological, for the previous 5 years. * Signed informed consent before entry into the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Prior hormonal treatment for prostate cancer within 6 months prior to study start. * Use of finasteride (Proscar®) or dutasteride (Avodart®/Avolve®) within 2 months prior to study start. * Presence of another neoplastic lesion or brain metastases. * Prior hypophysectomy or adrenalectomy. * Known or suspicion of vertebral metastases with risk of spinal compression. * Severe kidney or liver failure (creatinine \> 2 times the upper normal limit, ASAT and ALAT \>3 times the upper normal limit). * Any concomitant disorder or resulting therapy that is likely to interfere with patient compliance or with the study in the opinion of the Investigator. * Participation in another study with an experimental drug within 3 months before study start or within 5 drug half-lives of the investigational drug (whichever is the longer). * Known hypersensitivity to any of the test materials or related compounds. * Known active use of recreational drug or alcohol dependence in the opinion of the Investigator. * Any current use or use within 6 months prior to treatment start of medications which are known to affect the metabolism and/or secretion of androgenic hormones: ketoconazole, aminoglutethimide, oestrogens, and progesterone. * Use of systemic or inhaled corticosteroids (topical application permitted). * Use of anticoagulants: heparin and coumarine derivatives (acetylsalicylic acid permitted). * Inability to give Informed Consent or to comply fully with the protocol.
