Enzalutamide

Enzalutamide is a medication used to treat prostate cancer, especially when the disease has spread or is resistant to other treatments. It works by blocking a hormone called androgen, which fuels prostate cancer growth. By preventing androgens from binding to prostate cancer cells, enzalutamide slows down or stops the cancer from growing. It is usually taken as a daily pill and is part of targeted therapy, helping patients manage advanced prostate cancer more effectively.
