Benzene is an important organic compound with the chemical formula C6H6, and its molecule consists of a ring of 6 carbon atoms, each with 1 hydrogen atom. Benzene is a sweet, flammable, colorless and transparent liquid with carcinogenic toxicity at room temperature, and has a strong aromatic odor. It is insoluble in water, easily soluble in organic solvents, and can also be used as an organic solvent itself. The ring system of benzene is called benzene ring, and the structure after removing one hydrogen atom from the benzene ring is called phenyl. Benzene is one of the most important basic organic chemical raw materials. Many important chemical intermediates can be derived from benzene through substitution reaction, addition reaction and benzene ring cleavage reaction.
ESSA Pharma presents the updated phase 1 Masofaniten clinical data at the 2024 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium. Masofaniten (EPI-7386) is a first-in-class investigational, N-terminal domain (NTD) androgen receptor (AR) inhibitor under development for prostate cancer. The androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathway is responsible for growth and survival of most prostate cancers. Unlike present therapies by binding to the ligand-binding domain (LBD) of AR and inducing drug resistance, Masofaniten offers a unique mechanism that inhibits AR activity through targeting the N-terminal domain (NTD) of the AR and suppresses AR transcriptional activation.
Masofaniten is studied with Enzalutamide in the phase 1/2 clinical trial for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients on androgen deprivation therapy and naïve to second-generation antiandrogens.
