Novel trifluoromethylated enobosarm analogues show very potent antiandrogen activity in prostate cancer cells, and cells with acquired bicalutamide resistance whilst maintaining tissue selectivity in vivo

Prostate cancer often develops anti-androgen resistance, possibly via AR mutations which change AR antagonists to agonists. There is an urgent need for novel therapies which ideally show increased anticancer activity, whilst overcoming current drug resistance. Enobosarm has anabolic effects on muscle and bone tissues whilst having no effect on the prostate – often used to combat cachexia in advanced lung cancer. Here we describe the activity of novel chemically modified E...
