Drug May Help Keep Aggressive Prostate Cancer in Check
Men with localized high-risk prostate cancer can slow its spread by using a cancer drug that’s already on the market, a new clinical trial shows.
The targeted drug enzalutamide (Xtandi) reduced by 71 percent these men’s risk of either dying from their prostate cancer or having the cancer spread to other organs, compared against a placebo. The drug also delayed their prostate cancer’s reappearance by nearly two years, the researchers said.
