Brief Summary
The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the clinical anti-tumor activity of EMD 525797 administered as 1-hour intravenous infusion every 3 weeks in terms of progression free survival (PFS) time in subjects with asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression Free Survival (PFS) Time
PFS was defined as time from randomization until the first documented sign of objective radiographic disease progression (ORDP) or death from any cause. Death was considered as an event only if it was reported within 12 weeks after last tumor assessment without progression. ORDP was defined as: Bone lesion progression (2 or more new bone lesions compared to baseline) assessed with bone scintigraphy. Assessment was based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.0 (RECIST v1.0) modified as per Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 (PCWG-2); Soft-tissue lesion progression assessed with CT scans according to RECIST v1.0 modified as per PCWG-2; Presence of skeletal events defined as cord compression/fracture documented via a scheduled or unscheduled radiographic assessment triggered by increased pain or other signs and/or symptoms, based on the investigator's discretion; Non-radiological events, including emergency bone irradiation and surgery, were not investigated.
Time from randomization until data cut-off date (30 April 2013), assessed up to 2 years

Study Arms (3)
Placebo + Standard of care (SoC)
PLACEBO COMPARATOREMD 525797 750 mg + SoC
EXPERIMENTALEMD 525797 1500 mg + SoC
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Subjects will be administered with EMD 525797 at a dose of 1500 milligram (mg) (diluted with 0.9 percent \[%\] sodium chloride) as a 1-hour intravenous infusion every 3 Weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, whichever comes first, unless the subject stopped the trial treatment for other reasons.
Subjects will be administered with placebo (as 0.9% sodium chloride) as a 1-hour intravenous infusion every 3 Weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, whichever comes first, unless the subject stopped the trial treatment for other reasons.
All the subjects followed the SoC consisting of the continued treatment with luteinizing-hormone releasing hormone agonists (or antagonists).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate (Gleason score)
- Bisphosphonate treatment
- Stable, ongoing adequate testosterone suppression proven by hypogonadal levels of testosterone (less than or equal to) \<= 50 nanogram per deciliter \[ng/dL\]) for subjects without surgical castration (luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone antagonists and agonists)
You may not qualify if:
- Prior chemotherapy, biologic therapy (targeted therapy), or any experimental therapy for mCRPC
- Chronic and ongoing treatment with opioids
- Acute pathologic fracture, spinal cord compression, or hypercalcemia at Screening
- Visceral metastasis, brain metastasis
- Radiotherapy to bone lesions and/or orthopedic surgery for pathologic fractures. Any kinds of major elective surgery within 30 days prior to trial treatment
