Drug-like molecules targeting androgen receptor's allosteric binding sites selected by augmented AI and high-throughput screening as antitumor agents against prostate cancer. (PubMed, Biomed Pharmacother)
These compounds surpassed treatments like enzalutamide and galeterone in inhibiting colony and sphere formation, indicating new therapeutic potential...Furthermore, immunofluorescence assay on PC3 cells, demonstrated that compound 77 inhibits the nuclear translocation of GR following dexamethasone treatment, which is used to induce GR nuclear translocation. Furthermore, these findings revealed that compound 77 significantly reduces the transcription of GR and its downstream gene FKBP5, a classical GR target gene. These results substantiate our hypothesis that compound 77, particularly engages in off-target interactions, thereby potentially disrupting cancer growth.

Thermal proteome profiling and proteome analysis using high-definition mass spectrometry demonstrate modulation of cholesterol biosynthesis by next-generation galeterone analog VNPP433-3β in castration-resistant prostate cancer. (PubMed, Mol Oncol)
The inhibition of CHOL biosynthesis by VNPP433-3β reinforces its multifaceted effects in PCa across all stages, highlighting its potential as a single-agent therapy. Achieving reduced CHOL levels aligns with better treatment outcomes, further substantiating VNPP433-3β's therapeutic potential.

Open-label phase II clinical trial of orteronel (TAK-700) in metastatic or advanced non-resectable granulosa cell ovarian tumors: the Greko II study (GETHI2013-01). (PubMed, Clin Transl Oncol)
Low accrual led to an early interruption of the study. However, orteronel achieved a promising clinical benefit rate that supports further development of new hormonotherapies in this tumor.

Discovery and characterization of novel ATP citrate lyase inhibitors from Acanthopanax senticosus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Harms. (PubMed, Fitoterapia)
Enzymatic kinetic studies indicated ICC was a noncompetitive inhibitor of ACLY. Our work discovered novel ACLY inhibitors, provided valuable structure-activity patterns and deepened knowledge on the interactions between this targe tand its inhibitors.

Markers of bone metabolism and overall survival in men with bone-metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC): A subset analysis of SWOG S1216, a phase III trial of androgen deprivation with or without orteronel. (PubMed, Prostate Cancer Prostatic Dis)
In this planned S1216 subset analysis of men with HSPC and bone metastases, elevated serum markers of bone metabolism were significantly associated with worse OS. Bone biomarker levels alone and in combination with patient and tumor characteristics identify unique subsets of men with differential OS outcomes.

Salinization Dramatically Enhance the Anti-Prostate Cancer Efficacies of AR/AR-V7 and Mnk1/2 Molecular Glue Degraders, Galeterone and VNPP433-3β Which Outperform Docetaxel and Enzalutamide in CRPC CWR22Rv1 Xenograft Mouse Model. (PubMed, Bioorg Chem)
Finally, and most importantly, oral administration of the parent compounds (1 and 2) and their corresponding salts (3, 4 and 5) caused dose-dependent potent inhibition/regression of aggressive and difficult-to-treat CWR22Rv1 tumor xenografts growth, with no apparent host toxicities and were highly more efficacious than the blockbuster FDA-approved prostate cancer drugs, Enzalutamide (Xtandi) and Docetaxel (Taxotere). Thus, the HCl salts of Gal (3) and VNPP433-3β (4 and 5) are excellent orally bioavailable candidates for clinical development.

Race and Treatment Outcomes in Patients With Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer: A Secondary Analysis of the SWOG 1216 Phase 3 Trial. (PubMed, JAMA Netw Open)
Patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy were randomized (1:1) to receive either orteronel 300 mg orally twice daily (experimental group) or bicalutamide 50 mg orally daily (control group). Equitable access to care may reduce historical differences in outcomes between Black and White patients with advanced prostate cancer. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01809691.

Can the Oral Bioavailability of the Discontinued Prostate Cancer Drug Galeterone Be Improved by Processing Method? KinetiSol® Outperforms Spray Drying in a Head-to-head Comparison. (PubMed, AAPS PharmSciTech)
When compared to a spray-dried dispersion with an equivalent drug load, the KinetiSol amorphous solid dispersions formulations exhibited ~ 2 × exposure in an in vivo rat study. Acid-base surface energy analysis showed that the equivalent composition of the KinetiSol amorphous solid dispersion formulation better protected the weakly basic galeterone from premature dissolution in acidic media and thereby reduced precipitation, inhibited recrystallization, and extended the extent of supersaturation during transit into neutral intestinal media.

Identification of 2',4',6'-Trihydroxyacetophenone as Promising Cysteine Conjugate Beta-Lyase Inhibitor for Preventing Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity. (PubMed, Mol Cancer Ther)
Furthermore, THA pretreatment attenuated cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity without compromising its antitumor activities in mice bearing subcutaneous syngeneic LLC tumors. THA could help prevent cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and may provide a new strategy for cisplatin-inclusive cancer treatments.
