A Novel Small Molecule Inhibits Tumor Growth and Synergizes Effects of Enzalutamide on Prostate Cancer.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second leading cause of cancer-related death for men in the United States. Approximately 35% of PCa recurs and is often transformed to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPCa), the most deadly and aggressive form of PCa. However, the CRPCa standard-of-care treatment (enzalutamide with abiraterone) usually has limited efficacy.
