Pathologic Complete Response Rate Primary · Day 180

Pathologic complete response rate was defined as percentage of participants with pathologic complete response. Pathologic complete response rate following triplet therapy (enzalutamide in combination with leuprolide and dutasteride) and enzalutamide alone when administered as neoadjuvant therapy for 180 days prior to prostatectomy in participants with localized prostate cancer. Pathologic complete response was defined as the absence of morphologically identifiable carcinoma in the prostatectomy specimen, as assessed by the local and central pathologist.

Percentage of Participants With Positive Surgical Margins Secondary · Day 180

To determine the percentage of participants with positive surgical margins at prostatectomy as assessed by the local and central pathologist. Surgical margin, also known as tumor free margin referred to the visible normal tissue or skin margin that was removed with the surgical excision of a tumor, growth, or malignancy. The margin was described as positive when the pathologist finds cancer cells at the edge of the tissue, suggesting that all of the cancer has not been removed.

Percentage of Participants With Positive Seminal Vesicles Secondary · Day 180

To determine the percentage of participants with positive seminal vesicles at prostatectomy as assessed by the local and central pathologist. Seminal vesicles or seminal glands, were defined as a pair of simple tubular glands located within the pelvis. They secrete fluid that partly composes the semen. Seminal vesicles with cancer cells in them were called positive seminal vesicles.

Percentage of Participants With Positive Lymph Nodes Secondary · Day 180

To determine the percentage of participants with positive lymph nodes at prostatectomy as assessed by the local and central pathologist.

Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL): Number of Participants With The Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) Sexual Domain Summary Score Secondary · Day 180

EPIC sexual domain was HRQoL instrument that measured the effects of prostate cancer treatment on a participant's sexual function and sexual satisfaction. Sexual domain summary score was measured on a scale ranged from 0 (worst) to 100 (best) with higher scores representing better sexual function and satisfaction. Best change from baseline category in EPIC sexual domain summary score ranged from worsened to improved where worsened indicated decrease of at least 1 minimally important difference, stable indicated changed by less than 1 minimally important difference and improved indicated increa

EPIC sexual function subscale was a component of sexual domain that was evaluated on a distinct set of questions. It was measured on a scale ranged from 0 (worst) to 100 (best) with higher scores representing better sexual function.

EPIC sexual bother subscale was a component of sexual domain that was evaluated on a distinct set of questions. It was measured on a scale ranged from 0 (worst) to 100 (best) with higher scores representing less sexual bother and difficulty.
