Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Cognitive decline incidence<br>The proportion of patients with a higher Blessed Orientation-Memory-Cognition test score (by 1 or more points) at 12 (+/- 1) weeks of treatment as compared to baseline.[Participants will be assessed at baseline (within +/- 7 days of treatment commencing) and after 12 weeks (+/- 1 week) of treatment.];Depression rate.<br>The proportion of patients with depression, as determined by the Geriatric Depression Scale tool as a score > 5 at 12 (+/- 1) weeks of treatment as compared to baseline.[Participants will be assessed at baseline (within +/- 7 days of treatment commencing) and after 12 weeks (+/- 1 week) of treatment.];Falls rate.<br>The proportion of patients who experience at least one fall during the first 12 weeks following randomisation, as determined by the Falls Risk Questionnaire. [Participants will be assessed at baseline (within +/- 7 days of treatment commencing) and after 12 weeks (+/- 1 week) of treatment.]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall survival (death from any cause).[The interval from date of randomisation to the date of death from any cause; or censoring at the date of most recent follow-up where the patient was known to be alive.];Prostate Specific Antigen response rate as assessed by blood test for PSA level.<br>[The proportion of patients with 50% reduction in PSA at any time following randomisation up to 12 weeks post randomisation, compared to baseline level, with baseline defined as within (+/-) 7 days prior to commencing study treatment.]
