The ARANOTE trial demonstrated that darolutamide plus androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) without chemotherapy improved radiological progression-free survival by 46% in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) patients compared to placebo plus ADT (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.41-0.71, P<0.0001). The combination showed consistent benefits across subgroups, including high- and low-volume disease, and improved overall survival (OS) rates at 24 months (79.8% vs. 75.5%). Darolutamide also exhibited better tolerability with lower rates of fatigue and adverse event-related discontinuation compared to placebo.
