2. Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without neuroendocrine
differentiation or small cell features;
3. Ongoing androgen deprivation therapy with a Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)
analogue or bilateral orchiectomy (i.e., surgical or medical castration);
4. Patients who have not had a bilateral orchiectomy must have a plan to maintain
effective GnRH analogue therapy for the duration of the trial;
5. Serum testosterone level ≤ 1.7 nmol/L (50 ng/dL) at the Screening visit;

criteria that occurred while the patient was on androgen deprivation therapy as
defined in eligibility criterion #3:
1. PSA progression defined by a minimum of two rising PSA levels with an interval of
≥ 1 week between each determination. Patients who received an anti-androgen must
have progression after withdrawal (≥ 4 weeks since last flutamide or ≥ 6 weeks
since last bicalutamide or nilutamide). The PSA value at the Screening visit
should be ≥ 2 μg/L (2 ng/mL);
2. Metastatic disease documented by bone lesions on bone scan or by measurable soft
tissue disease by CT/MRI. Patients whose disease spread is limited to regional
pelvic lymph nodes, and previously radiated, are not eligible;
i. Up to 5 metastatic sites ii. ≤ 4 tumours within any given organ system, excluding
brain and liver (e.g. up to 4 bone metastases, or 4 lung metastases) iii. All sites of
disease must be amenable to SBRT with no history of the metastases being irradiated;
iv. In the case of a suspicious lesion in an unusual location such as lung or thoracic
lymph nodes (without other abdominal lymph nodes), a biopsy should confirm prostate
cancer origin.

9. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2 or Karnofsky
performance status of > 70% or higher;
10. Patients and their female partners of childbearing potential must be willing to use
two forms of contraception (one of which must include a condom as a barrier method of
contraception during sexual activity) throughout the duration of the study starting at
screening and continuing for 3 months after the last dose of study drug or per local
guidelines where these require additional description of birth control methods. These
contraceptive methods must include the following:
1. The use of condoms (barrier method)
AND one of the following:
2. the use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception by a
female partner;
3. placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS) by a
female partner;
4. additional barrier method, such as occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault
cap) with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository by a female partner;
5. tube ligation in the female partner;
6. vasectomy or other procedure resulting in infertility (eg. bilateral orchiectomy)
for ≥ 6 months.
If the patient's partner is a pregnant woman, the patient must use a condom during
sexual activity during and for 3 months after treatment with enzalutamide.
11. Patients must agree to not donate sperm while taking study drug
12. Estimated life expectancy of ≥ 6 months;
13. Ability to swallow the study drug whole and comply with study.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Severe concurrent disease, infection, or co-morbidity that, in the judgment of the
Investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for enrollment;
2. Known or suspected brain metastasis or active leptomeningeal disease;
3. History of another malignancy within the previous 5 years other than curatively
treated non-melanoma skin cancer;
4. Absolute neutrophil count < 1,500/μL, platelet count < 100,000/μL, or hemoglobin < 5.6
mmol/L (9 g/dL) at the Screening visit (NOTE: patients may not have received any
growth factors within 7 days or blood transfusions within 28 days of the hematologic
laboratory values obtained at the Screening visit);
5. Total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >
2.5 times the upper limit of normal at the Screening visit;
6. Creatinine > 177 μmol/L (2 mg/dL) at the Screening visit;
7. Albumin < 30 g/L (3.0 g/dL) at the Screening visit;
8. History of seizure or any condition that may predispose to seizure (e.g., prior
cortical stroke or significant brain trauma). Also, history of loss of consciousness
or transient ischemic attack within 12 months of enrollment (Day 1 visit);
9. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease including:
1. Myocardial infarction within 6 months;
2. Uncontrolled angina within 3 months;
3. Congestive heart failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 3 or 4, or
patients with history of congestive heart failure NYHA class 3 or 4 in the past,
unless a screening echocardiogram or multi-gated acquisition scan performed
within three months results in a left ventricular ejection fraction that is ≥
45%;
4. History of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias (e.g., ventricular
tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, torsades de pointes);
5. History of Mobitz II second degree or third degree heart block without a
permanent pacemaker in place;
6. Hypotension as indicated by systolic blood pressure < 86 millimeters of mercury
(mmHg) at the Screening visit;
7. Bradycardia as indicated by a heart rate of < 50 beats per minute on the
Screening ECG;
8. Uncontrolled hypertension as indicated by systolic blood pressure > 170 mmHg or
diastolic blood pressure > 105 mmHg at the Screening visit.
10. Gastrointestinal disorder affecting absorption (e.g., gastrectomy, active peptic ulcer
disease within last 3 months);
11. Major surgery within 4 weeks of enrollment (Day 1 Visit);
12. Use of opiate analgesics (eg. morphine, fentanyl, etc.) for pain from prostate cancer

27. Any condition or reason that, in the opinion of the Investigator, interferes with the
ability of the patient to participate in the trial, which places the patient at undue
risk, or complicates the interpretation of safety data.
