TOK-001 (Galeterone) is a novel small molecule that selectively target CYP17 and androgen receptor for prostate cancer treatment [1].
CYP17 and androgen receptor (AR) are two preferred target during the treatment of prostate cancer: The former is the prime enzyme that responsible for the production of cancer-inducing androgens [1], whereas the latter acts as transcription factor that increases the expression of androgen-responsive genes [2].
Galeterone is a small molecular therapeutics that designed to treat prostate cancer in three distinctive pathways: competitively inhibit the enzyme function of CYP17. Decreasing androgen-responsive genes expression by binding to AR, and downregulates AR population [3]. Using 293T cells transfected with CYP17, galeterone inhibited the lyase function of CYP17 with an IC50 value of 47 nM after 18 hrs of incubation [3]. In prostate cancer cell line assay, galeterone inhibited the proliferation of LNCaP and LAPC-4 with IC50 value of 6 and 3 µM, respectively [3].
In mice xenograft model that inoculated with LAPC4 cell lines, a daily subcutaneous injection of galeterone (0.15 mmol/kg, twice per day) reduced both the average volume and weight of tumour less by more than 80% and 50%, respectively in comparison with control group [3]. Galeterone is currently underwent phase III clinical trails for castration-resistant prostate cancer.
