Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Men aged 18-75 with localized prostate cancer who recently had radical prostatectomy, have postoperative PSA < 0.1 ng/mL, CAPRA-S score ≥ 6, ECOG 0-1, and adequate organ function.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with lower recurrence risk, inadequate organ function, or non-localized disease may not benefit from this adjuvant monotherapy.

What this trial studies
This is a multicenter, single-arm Phase 2 trial evaluating rezvilutamide monotherapy as adjuvant treatment for men with localized prostate cancer who have high risk of recurrence after radical prostatectomy. Eligible participants are adults up to 75 years with high CAPRA-S risk, low postoperative PSA, and adequate organ function. The goal is to determine the safety and efficacy of rezvilutamide in reducing biochemical recurrence and progression while avoiding long-term androgen-deprivation therapy toxicities. The study uses a straightforward oral AR-inhibitor regimen and monitors outcomes across participating centers in China.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience reduced risk of cancer recurrence with a potentially more favorable side effect profile than traditional ADT.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies in AR inhibitors for adjuvant settings have shown promise, but this specific rezvilutamide monotherapy approach is novel for post-prostatectomy high-risk patients.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age and Diagnosis: Male patients aged ≥ 18 and ≤ 75 years with histologically or cytologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma. * Disease Stage and Surgery: Localized prostate cancer (assessed by conventional imaging such as CT and bone scan), having undergone radical prostatectomy within 12 weeks prior to enrollment. * Postoperative PSA: Postoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level \< 0.1 ng/mL within 8 weeks after surgery. * Risk Stratification: Postoperative CAPRA-S score ≥ 6, indicating a high risk of recurrence. * Performance Status: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0 or 1. * Adequate Organ Function: Must meet the following laboratory criteria: 1. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 10\^9/L (without blood transfusion or G-CSF within 14 days). 2. Hemoglobin (HGB) ≥ 90 g/L. Platelet count (PLT) ≥ 100 × 10\^9/L. (3) Coagulation: International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) (without blood product transfusion within 14 days). (4)Creatinine clearance rate ≥ 30 mL/min. (5) Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × ULN. (6) Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN. * Radiotherapy Intention: Patients who are unfit for or refuse to receive radiotherapy. * Contraception: Patients of reproductive potential must be willing to use highly effective contraceptive methods during the study and for 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug. I * informed Consent: Capable of understanding and providing written informed consent (ICF) and willing to comply with study requirements and evaluation schedules. Exclusion Criteria: * Histology: Prostate tissue pathology showing neuroendocrine, small cell, or sarcomatoid features. * Metastasis: Preoperative conventional imaging (e.g., CT or bone scan) indicating pelvic lymph node metastasis (cN1) or distant metastasis (cM1). * Prior Therapies: Prior androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) (including medical or surgical castration), focal therapy for prostate cancer, or chemotherapy/radiotherapy for prostate cancer. * Prior Novel Hormonal Agents: Prior treatment with second-generation anti-androgens (e.g., abiraterone, apalutamide, enzalutamide, darolutamide, etc.). ·Recent Surgery: Major surgery requiring general anesthesia (other than radical prostatectomy) within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug. * Other Malignancies: History of or concurrent other malignancies within the past 2 years, except for cured non-melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder tumors (Ta, non-invasive; Tis, carcinoma in situ; and T1). * Thromboembolic Events: Arterial or venous thromboembolic events (e.g., cerebrovascular accident, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism) within the past 6 months, or currently receiving therapeutic anticoagulation with warfarin or heparin. * Cardiovascular Conditions: Heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) \> 500 ms; severe cardiovascular disease (myocardial ischemia or infarction grade ≥ II, uncontrolled arrhythmias, NYHA class III-IV heart failure, or LVEF \< 50% on echocardiogram). * Allergies: Known allergy to any study drug or its excipients. * Active Infections/Hepatitis: Active viral hepatitis requiring treatment (HBV DNA ≥ 500 IU/mL for HBV carriers; positive HCV RNA for HCV antibody-positive patients); known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; or any other active infection. * Autoimmune Diseases: Active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment, known history of allogeneic organ or hematopoietic stem cell transplant, or long-term high-dose use of corticosteroids or other immunomodulators. * Systemic Diseases: History of interstitial lung disease or uncontrolled systemic diseases (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, acute lung disease). * Seizures: History of epilepsy or conditions that may induce seizures. * Substance Abuse/Compliance: Underlying medical conditions, alcohol/drug abuse, or dependence that would interfere with drug administration, results interpretation, or pose a high risk for complications. * Sperm Donation/Family Planning: Men engaging in sexual activity with women of childbearing potential unwilling to use a condom with spermicide, unwilling to abstain from sperm donation during the study and for at least 3 months after the last dose, or planning to have children during this period. * Concurrent Trials: Concurrent participation in another therapeutic clinical study
