Brief summary

The study is being done to find out whether combining two FDA approved drugs along with radiation therapy for the treatment of high risk localized prostate cancer is safe and well tolerated.

Detailed description

* this pilot study will assess the safety and tolerability of combining enzalutamide with an gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH) and external beam radiation * Correlative imaging and tissue biopsy analysis will be performed to assess the radiographic response to enzalutamide plus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH) therapy as well as intratumoral androgen signaling

Interventions

DRUGEnzalutamide

160mg by mouth each day

DRUGLeuprolide acetate

22.5 mg intramuscular every 3 months or 45mg intramuscular every 6 months

RADIATIONradiation

External beam radiation will be delivered as per standard radiation therapy protocol
