Researchers in this study want to compare the effects of drug darolutamide and drug enzalutamide on physical function, including balance and daily activity, in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Both darolutamide and enzalutamide are approved AR inhibitors used for the treatment of patients with CRPC. AR inhibitor is a substance that keeps androgens (male sex hormones) from binding to proteins called androgen receptors, which are found in normal prostate cells, some prostate cancer cells, and in some other cells. Preventing this binding blocks the effects of these hormones in the body and therefore keeps prostate cancer cells from growing. Patients participating this study will receive either darolutamide or enzalutamide tablets. To evaluate the physical function, patients will be asked to make some movements like rising from a chair, walking three meters, etc. Additionally, researchers also want to find out the survival of patients and if patients have fatigue (feeling tired), cognitive (learning and thinking) problems, or other medical problems during the trial. Brand name of darolutamide is Nubeqa; brand name of enzalutamide is Xtandi.

Number of Participants With a Worsening in TUG Time During the 24- Week Period.
TUG: Timed Up \& Go. Worsening is defined as an increase of at least 1 second in TUG time from baseline. (The minimum clinically important difference \[MCID\] in TUG time is 1 second
Time frame: Up to 24 weeks
Number of Participants With an Increase of at Least 1 Second in TUG Time at 12 and 24 Weeks and During the 52 Weeks.
Worsening was defined as an increase of at least 1 second in TUG time from baseline. Improved was defined at least 1 second decrease from baseline. Stable was defined as change from baseline between less than 1 second increase and less than 1 second decrease.
Time frame: At 12 week, 24 week and 52 week.
Time to Worsening (Increase of at Least 1 Second) in TUG Time
At the end of the lead-in phase, the overall feasibility of the study execution was assessed and decided not to proceed with the randomized phase. Therefore, data on this outcome which needed to be collected in the randomized phase was unavailable.
Time frame: From randomization to the first date a participant had a worsening.
Number of Participants With a Worsening in SPPB Total Score at 12 and 24 Weeks and During the 24 Weeks and 52 Weeks From Baseline.
The SPPB is a group of measures that combines the results of the gait speed, chair stand and balance tests. The composite SPPB score ranges from 0 (worst performance) to 12 (best performance)
Time frame: At 12 and 24 weeks and during the 24 weeks and 52 weeks from baseline
Mean Change From Baseline in Daily Physical Activity as Assessed by CPM, at 12 and 24 Weeks, and During the 24 Weeks and 52 Weeks From Baseline.
Participants required at least 2 valid days to be included in the analysis at each visit. 'Valid' is defined as at least 10 awake wear hours. CPM for each valid day is defined as 'awake wear-filtered total vector magnitude counts' divided by 'awake wear minutes''. A participant's CPM at each visit is the average of daily CPM.
Time frame: At 12 week, 24 week and 52 week
Mean Change From Baseline in Accelerometer-assessed Proportion of Time Spent in Light to Vigorous Physical Activity Based on a Threshold of >100 Activity Counts Per Minute.
At the end of the lead-in phase, the overall feasibility of the study execution was assessed and decided not to proceed with the randomized phase. Therefore, data on this outcome which needed to be collected in the randomized phase was unavailable.
Time frame: At 12, 24, and 52 weeks for the randomization phase
Number of Participants With a Decline in Cognitive Function During the 24 Weeks and 52 Weeks From Baseline, as Assessed by HVLT-R.
The HVLT-R is a learning and memory test, in which the participant is asked to learn and recall a list of 12 words over three trials. The HVLT-R TR (total score) score ranges from 0 to 36, where higher scores indicated greater verbal learning and recall. The HVLT-R DR (delayed recall) score ranges from 0 to 12, where higher scores indicated greater verbal learning and recall. The HVLT-R RECOG (Delayed Recognition) score ranges from -12 to 12, where higher scores indicated better performance.
Time frame: During the 24 weeks and 52 weeks from baseline.
Number of Participants With a Decline in Cognitive Function During the 24 Weeks and 52 Weeks From Baseline, as Assessed by TMT.
TMT Part A (TMTA) is timed up to a maximum of 3 minutes, and TMT Part B (TMTB) is timed up to a maximum of 5 minutes. The lower score indicated the better performance.
Time frame: During the 24 weeks and 52 weeks from baseline.
Number of Participants With a Decline in Cognitive Function During the 24 Weeks and 52 Weeks From Baseline, as Assessed by COWA.
The COWA test assessed lexical fluency. Given a specific letter of the alphabet, participants were required to produce as many words as possible that begin with that letter. There were two alternate forms of the COWA, each with three unique letter exemplars. The lowest possible score is zero, meaning no words could be produced. There is no limit to the higher end of the scale given that participants can produce as many words as possible for each of the three letters. Higher scores indicate greater word retrieval and better cognitive function.
Time frame: During the 24 weeks and 52 weeks from baseline.
Number of Participants With a Decline Using a Selected Domain of Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cognitive (FACT-Cog).
FACT-Cog with a range of 0-28 points, higher score is better. Decline was defined as a decrease of \>10 points during the 24 weeks and 52 weeks from baseline.
Time frame: During the 24 weeks and 52 weeks from baseline.
Number of Participants With a Worsening of Fatigue During the 24 Weeks and 52 Weeks.
At the end of the lead-in phase, the overall feasibility of the study execution was assessed and decided not to proceed with the randomized phase. Therefore, data on this outcome which needed to be collected in the randomized phase was unavailable.
