New hope for men battling prostate Cancer's return

NCT ID NCT02203695

Summary

This study tested if adding a newer hormone therapy drug called enzalutamide to standard radiation treatment could better control prostate cancer that returns after surgery. It involved 86 men whose cancer had come back, as shown by a rising PSA blood test, but had not spread elsewhere. The goal was to see if this combination could keep the cancer in check longer than radiation alone, with fewer side effects than older treatments.
