Abstract
Abiraterone and enzalutamide are in widespread clinical use because of their favorable safety and efficacy. Nonetheless, even with newer agents, resistance develops overtime. In this review, we discuss mechanisms of resistance to these newer agents as well as novel therapeutic agents. We also review the literature to help clinicians decide which agent to begin with and when to stop or switch androgen receptor agents.
