See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Xtandi

It sounds like you’re asking about Xtandi (its generic name is enzalutamide).

What Xtandi is used for

  • Prostate cancer: specifically metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC)
  • Sometimes also used in other settings of advanced prostate cancer depending on the situation and prior treatments.

How it works (simple explanation)

  • Xtandi blocks the androgen receptor (the receptor prostate cancer uses to grow), helping slow cancer growth.

Common side effects

  • Fatigue
  • Hot flashes
  • High blood pressure
  • Falls / dizziness
  • Headache
  • Constipation
  • Less commonly but important: seizures (risk is higher in people with a seizure history or certain brain conditions/meds)

Important precautions

  • Tell your doctor if you have a history of seizures, brain injury/tumor, or if you take medicines that can interact.
  • It can interact with other drugs (especially meds affecting liver enzymes), so medication review is important.

If you tell me what you meant by “loe” (or if you meant “is it for ____?” / “dose” / “side effects” / “cost”), I can answer more precisely.
