Summary

This phase II trial studies how well apalutamide works in treating patients with prostate cancer before radical prostatectomy. Androgen can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using apalutamide may fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of androgen the body makes and may make it less likely for patients to receive radiation therapy after surgery.
