3. Prior documented disease progression on one potent AR inhibitor (darolutamide, abiraterone, enzalutamide, or apalutamide or combinations of these) in any disease setting (mHSPC, nmCRPC, mCRPC) based on sequential PSA rises or radiographic progression.
4. Planned therapy with either standard of care enzalutamide and/or abiraterone acetate or another potent AR inhibitor (darolutamide, apalutamide if available) within the coming 6 weeks
5. Castrate levels of testosterone (\<50 ng/dl) at most recent assessment and/or documented ongoing Androgen Deprivation Therapy.
6. Evidence of disease progression based on a rising PSA on or following most recent therapy as evidenced by the following:
