Inclusion Criteria:

Eligible subjects will conform to all of the inclusion criteria listed below:

1. Subject must be able to understand and be willing to sign the written Informed Consent Form. A signed IRB approved Informed Consent Form must be appropriately obtained prior to the conduct of any study-specific procedure.

2. Subject is willing and able to comply with the protocol, including all study visits and procedures.

3. Subject is a male, greater than 18 years at time of enrollment.

4. Life expectancy of at least 9 months.

5. Subject has histologically documented prostate cancer confirmed by a pathology report from a prostate biopsy or radical prostatectomy specimen.

6. Subject must:

1. have initiated a stable dose of daily Enzalutamide within 45 days of enrollment (Cycle 1/Week 1/ Day 1), or 2. plans to initiate a stable daily dose of Enzalutamide within 30 days of the first Radium Ra 223 dichloride treatment.

7. Subject must plan to receive all 6 Radium Ra 223 dichloride injections and daily oral doses of Enzalutamide during the study, per protocol.

8. Subject has a history of bone metastasis from prostate cancer as evidenced by imaging performed within 90 days of enrollment (Cycle 1/Week 1/Day 1) from one of the following:

1. Tc Bone Scan or 2. Sodium Fluoride PET/CT Scan

• If a bone scan is used, solitary lesions which could be contributed to causes other than prostate cancer must be confirmed with a second modality (i.e.: plain films, CT scan or MRI).

9. Subject has Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer, defined as having a rising PSA level and a testosterone leveldeprivation therapy (medical or surgical castration). Subject must also plan to receive androgen deprivation therapy throughout the study.

• PSA progression is defined as having at least 2 rising PSA levels taken at least 7 days apart, with the 2nd PSA being 2.0 ng/dl or greater.

10. Subject has the presence of cancer related bone pain requiring treatment with analgesic medications (including but not limited to acetaminophen, NSAIDS, Cox-2 inhibitors, and narcotic opioids).

11. Subject has an ECOG performance status of 0-2 at the screening and enrollment visits.

12. Acceptable hematology and serum biochemistry screening values: White Blood Cell (WBC) >/= 3,000/mm3 Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) >1500/mm3 Platelet (PLT) count >100,000/mm3 Hemoglobin (HGB) > 10.0 g/dL (100g/L; 6.2 mmol/L Creatinine <1.5 ULN Total bilirubin level <1.5 X ULN Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <2.5 X ULN albumin >25 g/L Baseline electrolytes within normal limits ( Sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, phosphate, magnesium, LDH, γGT, urea, total protein)

13. Normal Liver Function Tests (LFT) and normal Renal Function Tests (RFT) at the screening visit. If the subject has LFT's or RFT's greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), Medical Monitor review, in conjunction with the subject's PI, will be required.

14. Subjects receiving Anti-Resorptive medications, such as denosumab (XGEVA) and Zolendronic Acid (Zometa), must be on a stable dose for at least 90 days prior to enrollment (Cycle 1/Week 1/Day 1). Anti-resorptive medications may be not be added to the subject's regimen during the study. Anti-resorptive discontinuation will be allowed per Investigator discretion due to adverse events attributable to that medication.

15. Subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception beginning at the enrollment until at least 30 days after the last dose of the study drugs. The definition of adequate contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate.
