Therefore, a combination approach using AR modulating drugs with radiation could be a promising option for the treatment of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). All currently approved AR modulating drugs, such as enzalutamide (ENZA) and abiraterone, either directly or indirectly target the AR C-terminus ligand-binding domain (LBD). Such drugs are often unsuccessful due to the emergence of AR splice variants (e.g., AR-V7) that are constitutively active and lack a LBD. EPI-002 is a first-in-class AR antagonist that binds to its N-terminus domain to inhibit the transcriptional activities of both full-length AR and AR splice variants. A next generation compound, EPI-7170 has been developed. Here we present data to support that a combination of EPI compounds and ionizing radiation maybe beneficial for the treatment of mCRPC. METHODS: Androgen-independent LNCaP95 cells that are resistant to ENZA and endogenously express both full-length AR and AR-V7 were used. The effect of EPI compounds on the expression of DNA repair genes was measured using TaqMan array and Western blot analysis. Monotherapies versus combination therapies using EPI-002, EPI-7170, or ENZA, with ionizing radiation were evaluated for effects on proliferation, colony formation, cell cycle and DNA damage using BrdU incorporation, FACS and Western blot and immune fluorescent staining. RESULTS: EPI-7170 was more potent than EPI-002. Both EPI-002 and EPI-7170 decreased expression of DNA repair genes contrary to ENZA. EPI-002 induced G1 cell cycle arrest whereas radiation induced G2/M cell cycle arrest. FACS analysis revealed a dose-dependent decrease of BrdU incorporation with increased accumulation of gammaH2AX with combination therapy. A synergistic inhibitory effect on proliferation of ENZA-resistant LNCaP95 cells was achieved with a combination of EPI compounds with ionizing radiation. CONCLUSIONS: Combination therapy with radiation and an antagonist to the AR NTD such as EPI-002 or EPI-7170 that inhibits the transcriptional activities of both AR-Vs and full-length AR, may provide a new therapeutic approach for mCRPC.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
