scienceMechanism of Action (How it works)

expand_more

Prostate cancer cells depend on androgens to grow and survive. Even in cases where the cancer becomes resistant to standard hormonal therapies (castration-resistant), androgen receptors in the cancer cells continue to be active and promote cancer growth. Pryor Tablet targets these androgen receptors, blocks their activation, and prevents them from binding to androgens. This action inhibits the signaling pathway that drives the growth and proliferation of prostate cancer cells.

helpFrequently Asked Questions

What is Pryor Tablet used for?

expand_more

Pryor Tablet is used to treat certain types of prostate cancer that are still growing even when testosterone levels are low (called castration-resistant prostate cancer), or that have spread to other parts of the body but are still sensitive to testosterone (called metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer). It helps slow down cancer growth and lowers the risk of it spreading further.

Can Pryor Tablet be used alone for prostate cancer treatment?

expand_more

Your doctor may prescribe Pryor Tablet along with another treatment that lowers testosterone, such as surgery to remove the testicles, or medicines that block testosterone production. Testosterone fuels prostate cancer growth, so this product works best when testosterone levels are kept low.

Who should not take Pryor Tablet?

expand_more
