U.S. FDA Approves Third Indication of Darolutamide for Patients with Advanced Prostate Cancer
- On June 3, 2025, the U.S. FDA approved darolutamide for treating metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer, expanding its indications in the U.S.
- This approval followed positive results from the phase 3 ARANOTE trial, which showed darolutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy significantly improved progression-free survival.
- In the trial, 446 patients received darolutamide plus ADT and did not reach median radiographic progression-free survival, compared with 25 months in 223 placebo patients.
- Darolutamide reduced the risk of radiographic progression or death by 46% versus placebo , while maintaining quality of life and delaying pain progression.
- The approval offers a new oral treatment option with a favorable safety profile for men with mCSPC and reflects ongoing regulatory reviews in other countries under Project Orbis.
