Darolutamide, trade named Nubeqa, is being developed by Finnish drugmaker Orion Corp (Nasdaq OMX: ORNAV) and Germany’s Bayer (BAYN: DE).

In the ARASENS trial, darolutamide in combination with docetaxel and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) significantly increased overall survival (OS) compared to placebo, docetaxel and ADT.
