Molecular Dynamics Studies on the Enzalutamide Resistance Mechanisms Induced by Androgen Receptor Mutations
9 Feb 2017
Abstract excerpt
The second-generation antiandrogen enzalutamide, targeting androgen receptor (AR), was approved to treat castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in 2012. Its resistance was observed when it was in the clinical research stage. AR mutation is the main factor of enzalutamide resistance. AR F876L and F876L_T877A mutations were reported to switch enzalutamide from AR antagonist to agonist, but W741C cannot. There...
