Summary
This trial looks at how well a certain anti-hormone therapy works in treating prostate cancer, as well as how different genetic and molecular mechanisms may affect a patient's response to the therapy.
Who is the study for?
Men with advanced prostate cancer that's still growing despite hormone therapy can join. They must have had a recent rise in PSA levels or new areas of cancer spread on scans, be on ongoing hormone treatment, and their doctor should recommend enzalutamide. They need to agree to use birth control and not have other serious health issues or treatments that could interfere.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing how well the drug Enzalutamide works for prostate cancer by looking at genetic and molecular changes in blood and tissue samples. It aims to understand why some cancers resist treatment and improve future therapies.
What are the potential side effects?
Enzalutamide may cause fatigue, back pain, constipation, joint pain, hot flushes, diarrhea, high blood pressure, headaches, dizziness, swelling of arms/legs (peripheral edema), muscle weakness or spasms.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (Enzalutamide)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients receive enzalutamide PO QD in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo a tumor biopsy of a metastatic site at study entry (prior to initiation of enzalutamide) and after the time of progression. Per the investigator, patients may continue treatment beyond progression.
