Overview

This is a multi-centre, investigator-initiated, two-arm, randomized trial to investigate the addition on enzalutamide to standard of care radiation and hormone therapy improve quality of life.

Participants will either receive standard of care radiation and hormone (ADT) therapy (Arm 1) or standard of care radiation and hormone (ADT) therapy plus oral enzalutamide for 8 months (Arm 2). Participants will be routinely follow-up in clinic or remotely for up to 5 years.
