Pembrolizumab plus enzalutamide and androgen deprivation therapy versus placebo plus enzalutamide and androgen deprivation therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer: the randomized, double-blind, phase III KEYNOTE-991 study
Despite treatment advances, most patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) experience disease progression to castration-resistant disease within 5 years. The placebo-controlled, double-blind, phase III KEYNOTE-991 study evaluated the efficacy and safety of adding pembrolizumab to enzalutamide and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in participants with mHSPC.
