About this study

  • this pilot study will assess the safety and tolerability of combining enzalutamide with an gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH) and external beam radiation
  • Correlative imaging and tissue biopsy analysis will be performed to assess the radiographic response to enzalutamide plus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH) therapy as well as intratumoral androgen signaling

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety, as Measured by the Number of Patients With at Least One Adverse Event as Assess by NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) vs. 40 When Combining Enzalutamide With a GnRH and External Beam Radiation

    Time frame: 12 months following initiation of treatment with enzalutamide plus GnRH agonist

    Assessment will number of participants who experience adverse events greater than or equal to Grade 3, as defined by NCI Common terminology criteria for adverse events(CTCAE) v4.0

Secondary outcomes

  1. Fold Change in Intra-tumoral Androgen Regulated Gene Expression Pre and Post Combination Therapy

    Time frame: 12 months

    Fold change of Intra-tumoral Androgen Regulated Gene Expression (PSA, FKBP5, TMPRSS2, and NDRG1) will be measure at 12 months post therapy.
