Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test if the use of Degarelix for 1 year associated with a lower rate of cardiovascular toxicity compared to Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists in patients with advanced prostate cancer and cardiovascular risk factors, receiving combination therapy of Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and second line hormonal or chemotherapy?

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
time to first cardiovascular event
To compare time to first cardiovascular event as estimated by the cumulated probability at the 1-year time-point of patients with advanced prostate cancer treated for one year with Degarelix vs. GnRH agonist. This will be a composite outcome composed of: Death, CVA, MI, TIA, cardiac emergency room visits, heart catheterization.

Interventions
Treatment will start with two injections of 120 mg each followed by maintenance of a single injection of 80 mg administered every 28 days
GnRH agonist at the discretion of the treating Urologist/Oncologist for 1 year
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Locally advanced high-risk prostate cancer OR metastatic prostate cancer patients.
- Patients are scheduled to receive a combination of either
- primary ADT for 12 months + either chemotherapy with docetaxel OR
- primary ADT for 12 months + second line hormonal treatment with abiraterone/ enzalutamide/ apalutamide
- Patients with a medical history of either of the following:
- Myocardial infarction
- Ischaemic or haemorrhagic cerebrovascular conditions
- Arterial embolic and thrombotic events
- Ischaemic heart disease
- Prior coronary artery or iliofemoral artery revascularization (percutaneous or surgical procedures)
- Peripheral vascular disease (e.g. significant stenosis (ABPI\<0.9), claudication, prior vascular surgery/intervention(
- Two out of three cardiovascular risk factors: hypertension, diabetes, current smoking.
- Patients age 18-90 years.
- Life expectancy of over 12 months.
- WHO performance status of 0-2
- +1 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Prior use of ADT in past 6 months prior to randomization. We will, however, allow prior use of anti-androgens such as Casodex, Chimax, Drogenil, and Cyprostat.
- Known allergic reaction to Degarelix.
- Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical situation potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule.
