Targeted drug duo tested for Tough-to-Treat prostate cancer

NCT ID NCT03360721

Summary

This study tested whether combining two drugs, apalutamide and abiraterone acetate, could better control advanced prostate cancer that had spread and stopped responding to standard hormone therapy. It aimed to see if this combination could slow the cancer's growth in men whose tumors had a specific biological signature. The trial was small and ended early, so its findings are limited.
