Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Enzalutamide/Leuprolide +/- Abiraterone/Pred in Prostate

Study Description

Brief Summary: This study is comparing the effectiveness of enzalutamide with or without abiraterone acetate for men with high-risk, localized prostate cancer.

Detailed Description: In this research study, the investigators are comparing the effectiveness of enzalutamide with or without abiraterone acetate for men with high-risk, localized prostate cancer. Abiraterone acetate with prednisone and enzalutamide are currently FDA-approved for use in the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, however they are investigational for the treatment of localized prostate cancer. Abiraterone acetate works by decreasing the production of male sex hormones, which cause prostate cancer growth. Enzalutamide works by blocking the effects of male sex hormones, which cause prostate cancer growth. The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has not approved the combination of enzalutamide and abiraterone acetate as neoadjuvant therapy for high risk prostate cancer undergoing prostatectomy but each drug has been approved for the treatment of more advanced prostate cancer. Participants will be randomized to one of two study arms. Randomization means that the participant is put into a group by chance. It is like flipping a coin. Neither participant nor the research doctor will choose what group participants are randomized to. The names of the study medications involved in this study are: * Enzalutamide * Abiraterone Acetate * Prednisone * Leuprolide Acetate
