This is the same cutoff used for age subgroup analysis for COU-AA-302
[16]and COU-AA-301
[17]and is consistent with US regulatory guidance
to define a geriatric population in clinical trials
[18] .Clinical progression
data were obtained from investigator reports, and data on responses and
subsequent therapy for mCRPC were collected by trial monitors during
site visits. The data were then source-verified and entered into the
database. PSA response rates and post-treatment PSA declines were
summarized using frequency and percentages. The time to PSA
progression (TTPP) was estimated using PCWG2 criteria and included
censored patients. Median TTPP with 95% CI was estimated using the
Kaplan-Meier method.

Results
Baseline characteristics for patients who progressed on
AA and received docetaxel as FST were similar to the full
COU-AA-302 intention-to-treat (ITT) population
( Table 1).
Among patients in the AA arm, 36% (194/546) and 15% (83/
546) had two or more and three or more subsequent
therapies, respectively
( Table 2 ). Among those in the P arm,
45% (243/542) and 22% (121/542) had two or more and
three or more subsequent therapies, respectively.
