The primary objective was to compare proportions of MS at 18 months between the study arms.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Between July 2018 and November 2023, 166 patients were randomized. The trial closed prematurely on November 24, 2023, because of drug supply cessation and the planned enrollment numbers (n = 300) were not met. A total of 90 (metformin) and 45 patients (placebo) were analyzed in the final analysis. The median follow-up was 24 months (IQR: 19.5-36 months). Proportions of MS between metformin and placebo arms were 38/90 (42%) vs 26/45 (58%) at baseline (<i>P</i> = .09) and 40/73 (55%) vs 23/34 (68%) at 18 months (<i>P</i> = .2).

Mean (SD) hemoglobin A1c was lowered with metformin at 9% (-0.02% [0.23%] vs +0.08% [0.26%]; <i>P</i> = .02) and 12 months (+0.03% [0.27%] vs +0.08% [0.27%]; <i>P</i> = .03). Significantly smaller increments in mean (SD) waist circumferences were noted with metformin at 9 (+0.8 [4.3] vs +2.9 [5.7] cm; <i>P</i> = .03), 12 (+1.9 [5.1] vs +3.3 [6] cm; <i>P</i> = .15), and 18 months (+1.8 [3.8] vs +3.8 [6.1] cm; <i>P</i> = .03).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Metformin did not reduce the risk of MS in patients with PCa on ADT.
