AKEEGA® delivered a meaningful* rPFS benefit and delayed time to symptomatic progression1
Progression-free survival
AKEEGA® delivered a meaningful* reduction in the risk of radiographic progression or death1

reduction in risk of radiographic progression or death vs standard of care (SoC‡)
HR, 0.46 (95% CI, 0.32-0.66)§
Primary endpoint:
Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS)1†


reduction in risk of radiographic progression or death vs standard of care (SoC‡)
HR, 0.46 (95% CI, 0.32-0.66)§
*Defined as a favorable impact on patient feeling, function, or survival.2
†Investigator-assessed.
‡SoC = abiraterone acetate + prednisone.1
§Calculated using an unstratified Cox proportional hazards model.
In the HRRm patient population
- A statistically significant improvement in rPFS with AKEEGA® + P vs placebo + AAP was seen in the overall population of patients with HRRm1
- In an exploratory analysis of the subgroup of 373 patients with non-BRCA2 m mCSPC, the rPFS HR was 0.88 (95% CI: 0.63, 1.24), indicating that improvement in the overall population was primarily attributable to the results seen in the BRCA2 m mCSPC subgroup1

Study design
AMPLITUDE: the first trial to evaluate a PARPi + NHT combination in BRCA2 m mCSPC1,3
Prior to study entry, patients were permitted1:
≤6 cycles of docetaxel
≤6 months of ADT
≤45 days of AAP
AMPLITUDE Study Design1,3,4


Primary endpoint
• rPFS by central review
Key secondary endpoints
• Time to symptomatic progression
• Overall survival
• Safety
aPatients with lymph node–only disease were not eligible.
bHRR gene panel was fixed prior to trial initiation based on MAGNITUDE trial and external data from the published literature.
cLast dose of docetaxel ≤3 months prior to randomization.
- First and final rPFS analysis and first interim analysis of time to symptomatic progression and overall survival for the study population. Clinical data cutoff: January 7, 2025. Median follow-up: 30.8 months3
AMPLITUDE baseline characteristics were well-balanced between
treatment arms3,4
At baseline, among patients in the AKEEGA® treatment arm4:
77%
had high disease volume
~50%
had lymph node metastases
16%
had visceral metastases
