Summary

This trial is studying the use of hormone therapy, including TAK-700, together with radiation therapy to see how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer.

Who is the study for?
Men aged 18+ with high-risk prostate cancer, who may have started hormone therapy within the last 50 days but haven't had certain treatments like chemotherapy for prostate cancer. They should not have other active cancers or serious heart, liver, or kidney diseases and must be willing to use contraception.
What is being tested?
This phase III trial is testing if adding TAK-700 to standard hormone therapy and radiation helps treat high-risk prostate cancer better. It also looks at how these treatments affect patients' quality of life over time.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include hot flashes, fatigue, sexual dysfunction, urinary issues due to hormone therapy; skin irritation from radiation; and increased risk of cardiovascular problems with TAK-700.
