This study will be a retrospective data analysis to compare outcomes between patients with chemotherapy-naïve metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who initiated enzalutamide and those who initiated abiraterone using the 100% Fee-For-Service Medicare claims data. The study will address the following objectives: Primary objective: To compare overall survival (OS) in patients with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC who initiated enzalutamide vs. abiraterone Secondary objectives: * To compare OS in patients with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC who received only enzalutamide without any subsequent therapy vs. abiraterone without any subsequent therapy * To compare treatment duration and time to subsequent therapy in chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC patients initiating enzalutamide vs. abiraterone
