## Outcomes

### Primary outcomes

1. Overall Survival (OS)  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
OS is defined as the time from randomization to date of death due to any cause.

### Secondary outcomes

1. Radiographic Progression-free Survival (rPFS)  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
rPFS assessed by investigator defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of radiographic disease progression (based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors \\\[RECIST\\\] version (v) 1.1 and prostate cancer working group 3 \\\[PCWG3\\\] criteria) or death, whichever comes first.
2. Time to Symptomatic Progression  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
Time to symptomatic progression is defined as time from the date of randomization to the date of any of the following (whichever occurs first): (a) the use of external beam radiation therapy to relieve cancer-related symptoms; (b) the need for tumor-related orthopedic surgical intervention; (c) other cancer-related procedures; (d) cancer-related morbid events; (e) initiation of a new systemic anti-cancer therapy because of cancer symptoms.
3. Time to Skeletal-Related Event  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
Time to skeletal-related event is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first occurrence of any of the following (whichever occurs first): (a) the use of external beam radiation for skeletal or pelvic symptoms; b) the need for tumor-related orthopedic surgical intervention; (c) the occurrence of new bone fractures (cancer-related); (d) the occurrence of tumor-related spinal cord compression.
4. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
PFS is defined as the date of randomization to the date of first evidence of radiographic progression, clinical progression, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
5. Time to Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Progression  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
Time to PSA progression, defined as the time from randomization to the first date of documented PSA progression per PCWG3 criteria. PSA progression is defined as: after a decline from baseline, PSA increases \\>= 25 percentage (%) and \\>= 2 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) above the nadir, confirmed by a second value \\>= 3 weeks later (that is, a confirmed rising trend), or If there is no decline from baseline, PSA increases \\>= 25 % and \\>= 2 ng/mL from baseline after 12 weeks.
6. Time to Pain Progression (TTPP) as Assessed by the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF) Item 3 Worst Pain in 24 Hours  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
TTPP is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first observation of pain progression. Pain progression is defined as an increase of at least 2 points from baseline in the BPI-SF worst pain intensity (item 3) observed at 2 consecutive evaluations \\>= 3 weeks apart. BPI-SF is an 11-item questionnaire, designed to assess severity and impact of pain on daily functions. Total score range from 0 to 10 with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 representing" pain as bad as you can imagine".
7. Time to Deterioration in Fatigue as Assessed by the European Organisation For Research And Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core-30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) Fatigue Scale Score  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
Time to deterioration is defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first observation of deterioration in Fatigue. Deterioration in Fatigue is defined as an increase of 10 points on the EORTC QLQ-C30 FA scale observed at 2 consecutive evaluations \\>= 3 weeks apart. The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a widely used tool for assessing the quality of life of cancer patients in clinical trials. Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent". Each subscale of the EORTC QLQ-C30 is scored on a range from 0 to 100\. Higher scores indicate worse symptoms or problems.
8. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.
9. Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Clinical Laboratory Assessments  
Timeframe: Up to 2 years and 8 months  
Participants with abnormalities in clinical laboratory parameters (hematology, clinical chemistry etc.) will be assessed.

### Inclusion criteria

- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate
- Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): Disease that is metastatic either to bone, any lymph node, or both without clear evidence of other metastatic sites at the time of screening by conventional imaging with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (chest, abdomen, and pelvis) and 99m^Tc bone scan. Visceral disease is not allowed
- PSA greater than or equal to (≥) 2 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL) at screening
- In the opinion of the investigator, the next best treatment option is a clinical trial

Prior therapies could have been given in any disease setting (not limited to mCRPC). In particular, prior treatment specifications include receipt of the following:

Androgen-receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI): Must have progressed on at least 1 ARPI and unlikely to benefit from retreatment with another ARPI

Taxanes: Required to have received at least 2 previous taxane-based regimens. If a participant has received only 1 taxane regimen, the participant is eligible if:

1. Cabazitaxel is not available
2. The participant's physician deems the participant unsuitable to receive a second taxane regimen due to toxicity risk or prior intolerance Note: a taxane-based regimen consists of at least 2 cycles of a taxane (either as a single agent or in combination with other therapies) administered within the same 2-month period

Radioligand therapy: Required to have been previously treated with at least 1 dose of Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted lutetium radioligand therapy (eg, lutetium Lu-177 vipivotide tetraxetan), unless one of the following applies:

A) eGFR ≥ 40 milliliters per minute (mL/min) B) Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) and Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) less than or equal to (≤) 3 times the Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) C) Total bilirubin <1.5 times ULN D) Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0x10^9/per liter (L) E) Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL) F) Platelet count ≥ 75x10^9/L

### Exclusion criteria

- Venous thromboembolic events within 1 month prior to the first dose of study treatment; uncomplicated (Grade ≤ 2) deep vein thrombosis is not exclusionary
- Active autoimmune disease within the past 12 months that requires systemic immunosuppressive medications (eg, chronic corticosteroid, methotrexate, or tacrolimus)
- Participants with Grade 1 or higher fever (≥38ºC) or active infection requiring systemic treatment within 7 days prior to randomization are ineligible. Participants must be afebrile (<38ºC) at the time of study treatment dosing unless approved by medical monitor
- Clinically significant pulmonary compromise, particularly a requirement for supplemental oxygen use (>2 liters per minute (L/min) by nasal cannula) to maintain adequate oxygenation
- Prior or concurrent second malignancy (other than the disease under study) for which natural history or treatment could likely interfere with any study endpoints of safety or the efficacy of the study treatment(s)
- Any of the following within 6 months prior to first dose of study treatment:
