In a nutshell This study analyzed and evaluated which hormonal therapy should be given first, abiraterone acetate (Zytiga) plus prednisone (Deltasone) (AAP) or enzalutamide (Xtandi; ENZ) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The data showed that AAP followed by ENZ is more effective in delaying...
