Dynamics of Androgen Receptor Genomics and Transcriptomics After Neoadjuvant Androgen Ablation

Summary

Rationale: Understanding the mechanisms of enzalutamide as an androgen receptor inhibitor in early prostate cancer could lead to improved patient selection for treatment. Objective: To study the effects of enzalutamide on surgical margin status and AR / DNA interaction and gene expression. Intervention : Men with localized prostate cancer will undergo an additional set of targeted tumor biopsies and will be subsequently treated with 3 months of enzalutamide. The prostatectomy specimen will be additionally sampled, ex vivo.
