Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The Rate of Suppression of Serum Testosterone to Castrate Level	From the start of study drug administration through Week 48	Comparison of the proportion of patients maintained at castration level (≤100 ng/dL)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Time Course of Changes in Serum Testosterone	From baseline to Week 48
Time Course of Changes in Serum Luteinizing Hormone (LH)	From baseline to Week 48
Time Course of Change Rate in Serum PSA (FAS)	From baseline to Week 48	Evaluation according to the "Criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer, 4th edition (determination of therapeutic effect by prostate-specific antigen \[PSA\])
Soft Tissue Response	At week 48	Assessment in accordance with the "criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer, 4th edition. Soft tissue response was evaluated in accordance with the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.
