New pill aims to control prostate cancer with fewer side effects

NCT ID NCT02972060

Summary

This study is testing if a new oral drug, darolutamide, can control prostate cancer as effectively as standard hormone therapy (ADT) over 24 weeks. It will compare how well the drug lowers PSA levels and will closely track side effects and quality of life. The goal is to see if this pill offers a similar level of disease control but with a better side effect profile for men who have not yet received hormone treatment.
