Bicalutamide is a non-steroidal anti-androgen medication primarily used for the treatment of prostate cancer. It functions by blocking the action of male hormones (androgens) and is approved for use in combination with luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogues for advanced prostate cancer. Bicalutamide is approved and currently used in clinical practice.

Pharmacokinetics

Pharmacokinetic parameters reported in healthy male volunteers after oral administration.
