First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 32 times
Summary
This study tested a combination of three hormone-blocking drugs (abiraterone, enzalutamide, and standard hormone therapy) given before surgery to men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer that hadn't spread. The goal was to see if this approach could shrink tumors and improve detection using advanced MRI and PET/CT scans with a new radioactive tracer. Twelve men participated, and the study tracked how well the treatment worked and how the scans could better find cancer.
