Trial-results highlights

Tasquinimod has been investigated in clinical studies for prostatic neoplasms. One pivotal trial, NCT02057666 (TasQ003), evaluated the time to radiological progression-free survival. This endpoint measured the time from randomization until the first documented progression or death, assessed up to 3 years.

In the NCT02057666 trial, participants receiving Tasquinimod had a median time to radiological progression-free survival of 11.00 months. For participants in the placebo arm of NCT02057666, the median time to radiological progression-free survival was 7.53 months.

All values are sourced from primary registry reporting, and individual papers should be consulted for clinical decisions.
