How ERLEADA
Helps Treat
Prostate Cancer

ERLEADA + ADT Work Together to Lower Androgens That Can Help Fuel Prostate Cancer

Step 1 diagram of prostate cancer cell mechanism before treatment. Text reads: 'Before treatment: Androgens can bind to the receptors on prostate cancer cells. These signals can help fuel the cancer cells' growth.' Visual shows yellow androgen triangles binding to receptors. Step 2 diagram of prostate cancer treatment. Text reads: 'With ADT: ADT lowers the amount of androgens in the body. Less androgen means fewer signals.' Visual shows fewer yellow androgen triangles in the space above receptors compared to Step 1. Step 3 diagram of prostate cancer treatment. Text reads: 'With ERLEADA + ADT: ERLEADA helps block the remaining androgens from attaching. Fewer signals getting through can help stop the cancer's growth.' Visual shows shield icons blocking remaining androgens from binding to receptors.

ANDROGEN

ADT: Androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) includes medical or surgical treatment that lowers testosterone.

*Androgens are a group of hormones that include testosterone. Androgens bind to specific proteins called androgen receptors and trigger processes that help cancer cells to grow.
