Summary

This study looks at men whose prostate cancer has returned after surgery or radiation. It compares standard hormone therapy (which lowers testosterone) to the same therapy plus abiraterone and prednisone, which further block testosterone production. The goal is to see if the combination keeps PSA levels very low for longer. About 310 men will take part in this phase 2 trial.
