ENZAMET Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether a new drug, enzalutamide, is more effective than a conventional non-steroidal anti androgen (NSAA), when combined with a luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analog (LHRHA) or surgical castration, as first line androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer.

Who is the study for?
Men 18+ with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer can join this trial. They must have certain levels of blood cells, liver and kidney function, and be able to start treatment within a week after joining. Those with specific heart conditions, other cancers in the past 5 years, or severe infections cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if enzalutamide is more effective than traditional anti-androgens when combined with hormone therapy or surgery for first line treatment of advanced prostate cancer. Participants will receive either enzalutamide or a non-steroidal anti-androgen as part of their therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Enzalutamide may cause seizures, high blood pressure, fatigue, back pain and constipation among other side effects. Hormone therapy might lead to hot flashes, reduced sexual desire and bone thinning.
