Popis: | Current safety data affirms enzalutamide does not cause clinically significant liver dysfunction that warrant therapy cessation. Therefore, clinicians should not withhold potentially successful therapy merely for suspected hepatotoxicity or PnC. We report a case of paraneoplastic cholestasis (PnC) coinciding with enzalutamide initiation and masquerading as an enzalutamide‐related adverse event. Current safety data affirms that enzalutamide does not cause clinically significant liver dysfunction. Therefore, clinicians should not withhold potentially successful therapy merely for suspected hepatotoxicity or PnC. |
