General information

Class/mechanism: Antiandrogen; androgen receptor inhibitor (ARI) or androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (ARSI). Enzalutamide competitively inhibits testosterone from binding to the androgen receptor, interferes with translocation of the androgen receptor to the nucleus, and inhibits binding to DNA, resulting in decreased prostate cancer proliferation and cell death.[1][2][3]
Route: PO
Extravasation: n/a
