Abstract 610: Preclinical evaluation of novel androgen receptor N-terminal domain inhibitor EPI-002 for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Background: Androgen receptor (AR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that plays critical roles in lethal and incurable castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). EPI-002 is a novel small molecule that specifically targets the AR N-terminal domain (NTD), while conventional therapies target the ligand-binding domain (LBD). Our previous work suggests that EPI-002 may have clinical potential to treat CRPC. Here, the objective was to evaluate EPI-002 against several clinically relevant conditions such as elevated expression of AR co-activators, variable lengths of the poly-glutamine tract (CAG-repeats) within AR NTD, and constitutively active AR splice variants lacking the LBD. Methods: To evaluate the effect of EPI-002 on AR transcriptional activity against overexpressed co-activators such as SRC1-3 and p300, luciferase reporter assays were performed using LNCaP cells transfected with an AR-driven reporter and various amounts of the co-activators. AR-negative COS1 cells were employed for reporter assays to examine if the length of CAG-repeats (varying from 0 to 49) affects EPI-002 inhibition. The effect of EPI-002 on constitutively active AR splice variants was studied in LNCaP95 cells, which express endogenous AR-V7 variant. The expression of several genes regulated by AR-V7 was analyzed by QPCR in LNCaP95 cells treated with antiandrogen enzalutamide or EPI-002. The proliferation of LNCaP95 cells treated with EPI-002 was measured using BrdU incorporation. The efficacy of EPI-002 on LNCaP95 xenografts was studied in castrated male mice by oral delivery and compared to control and enzalutamide. Results: EPI-002 effectively inhibited AR transcriptional activity in spite of overexpressed co-activators SRC1, SRC2, SRC3, or p300. The variable lengths of CAG-repeats within the NTD had no effect on the inhibition of AR by EPI-002. In LNCaP95 cells, EPI-002 significantly blocked the transcriptional activity of AR-V7 indicated by decreased levels of mRNA of AR-V7 regulated genes such as UBE2C. In contrast, enzalutamide had no effect on expression of these genes. EPI-002 significantly inhibited the androgen-independent and antiandrogen-resistant proliferation of LNCaP95 cells. In castrated male mice, EPI-002 attenuated the growth of LNCaP95 xenografts, whereas enzalutamide had no significant effect. By the end of the 28-day study, animals treated with EPI-002 had xenografts that were half of the size of those from the control arm. Conclusions: AR NTD inhibitor EPI-002 was effective against several clinically relevant conditions, including overexpressed co-activators, variable lengths of CAG-repeats, and constitutively active AR-V7. These findings support EPI-002 as a promising therapeutic agent to treat CRPC, particularly against castration-resistant tumors driven by constitutively active AR splice variants that are resistant to LBD-targeting therapies.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
