Sponsor: University of Chicago

Program Overview
The purpose of this study is to see how well the drug darolutamide works when used with standard hormone therapy in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Researchers are particularly interested in how this combination affects physical activity, like step count, and its safety in older adults who are considered vulnerable based on a brief geriatric assessment.
