A Phase 2 Study of Enzalutamide in Patients With High-risk Prostate Cancer Who Have Undergone Local Definitive Therapy With Radical Prostatectomy
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating enzalutamide for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate. Completed, enrolled 42 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to see how long it takes for prostate cancer to come back in patients who have had surgery to remove their prostate gland (radical prostatectomy), while being treated with enzalutamide (formerly known as MDV3100). Enzalutamide is known as an androgen-receptor signaling inhibitor, which means that it blocks activity of the male hormone, testosterone. Most prostate cancers are dependent on testosterone for growth. In this study, patients will take enzalutamide after surgery to see if it keeps their cancer from coming back.
