New combo aims to outsmart resistant prostate cancer

NCT ID NCT02452008

Summary

This study is testing if adding an experimental drug called LY2157299 to the standard drug enzalutamide can help men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. It will compare how long the cancer stays under control with the combination versus enzalutamide alone. The goal is to see if this new approach can overcome the cancer's resistance to treatment and delay its progression.
