Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)6 months

Percentage of change from baseline to 6 months (or earlier for those who discontinue study therapy)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Tolerability of Radium-223 therapy6 months

Proportion of patients who complete 6 times injections of radium-223

Evaluation for bone metastasis by 18F-NaF-PET1, 3, 6 months

Fractional decline of intensity of tracer uptake measured by SUVmax on 18F-NaF-PET at 1, 3, 6 months.

Evaluation for bone metastasis by bone scintigraphy1, 3, 6 months

The change of Bone Scan Index (BSI) by bone scintigraphy at 1, 3, 6 months.

Overall Survival Rate3 years

Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from the registration to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive.

Time to occurrence of visceral metastasis1 year

Time to occurrence of visceral metastasis was defined as the time from registration to the date of the occurrence of a visceral metastasis for each patient.

Time to occurrence of Symptomatic Skeletal-related Events (SSEs)1 year

Time to occurrence of SSEs are defined asthe time from registration to the date of the occurrence of SSEs (symptomatic fracture, surgery or radiation to bone, or spinal cord compression).

Time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy1 year

The time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy is defined as the time from registration to the date of initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy.

Changes in Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)6 months

Percent change in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) from baseline at 6 months.

Changes From Baseline for Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)6 months

The change for the BPI-SF (Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form) score was calculated.

Changes From Baseline for Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P)6 months

The change for the FACT-P TOI domain (physical and social well-being and prostate specific score) was calculated.

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability)6 months

Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability.
