Hi does anyone have experience of enzalutamide and steroids as a combined treatment. No chemotherapy offered as yet.
Stage 4 with bone mets
Thank you

You don't normally have steroids alongside enzalutamide - they are used in conjunction with abiraterone. Both Enzalutamide and Abiraterone are roughly equivallent hormone treatments in terms of outcomes but the advantage (as I see it) of Enzalutamide is not having to take steroids an hour before the abiraterone.
Cheers Steve
