Enzalutamide

Enzalutamide is a type of anti-androgen drug that is used in the treatment of prostate cancer. It works by blocking the action of androgens, which are hormones that can cause the cancer cells to grow. Enzalutamide is approved for use in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and is no longer responding to hormone therapy. It can also be used to treat men with advanced prostate cancer that has not yet spread. Enzalutamide is an effective treatment for prostate cancer and provides patients with an alternative to chemotherapy or radiation therapy. It has significantly improved the quality of life for many men with advanced prostate cancer.
