Incidence and Characterization of Antiandrogen Withdrawal Syndrome After Discontinuation of Treatment With Enzalutamide in Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer

To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest reported cohort documenting the incidence and characterization of AAWS after enzalutamide to date. The AAWS frequency after enzalutamide was low and of short duration. No patient- or disease-related characteristics were associated with AAWS with enzalutamide. The occurrence of AAWS after enzalutamide was not clinically meaningful. Thus, accounting for this phenomenon in clinical practice or trial designs could be unnecessary.
