Multicenter randomized phase 2 study of addition of enzalutamide to active surveillance for low-risk or intermediate-risk prostate cancer
Dr. Neal Shore
There are few published studies prospectively assessing pharmacological interventions that may delay prostate cancer progression in patients undergoing active surveillance (AS). The multicenter randomised phase 2 ENACT study in the US and Canada showed that addition of enzalutamide to AS for low-risk or intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer was associated with significantly reduced risk of prostate cancer progression by 46% compared to AS alone. Enzalutamide monotherapy was well-tolerated (visual abstract).
