Abstract:
Provided is a class of radiolabeled androgen receptor targeting agents (ARTA), useful for prostate cancer imaging and in treating or preventing prostate cancer. The agents define a new subclass of radiolabeled compounds, which are selective androgen receptor modulators (SARM), which demonstrate antiandrogenic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor, and/or which bind irreversibly to the androgen receptor. The present invention further provides methods for a) imaging of cancer in a subject, b) imaging an androgen receptor-containing tissue in a subject, c) in-vivo imaging in a subject, d) treating a subject suffering from prostate cancer, e) delaying the progression of prostate cancer in a subject suffering from prostate cancer, f) preventing the recurrence of prostate cancer in a subject suffering from prostate cancer, and g) treating the recurrence of prostate cancer in a subject suffering from prostate cancer, which comprise using the radiolabeled compounds of the present invention. The present invention further provides a method of producing the radiolabeled SARM compounds, and precursor compounds useful in the preparation of the radiolabeled SARM compounds.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an androgen receptor alkylating compound, wherein the compound may include, inter alia, an active functional group, which permits the alkylation of the androgen receptor.
Abstract:
This invention provides a class of androgen receptor targeting agents (ARTA). The agents define a new subclass of compounds, which are selective androgen receptor modulators (SARM). Several of the SARM compounds have been found to have an unexpected androgenic and anabolic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor. Other SARM compounds have been found to have an unexpected antiandrogenic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor. The SARM compounds, either alone or as a composition, are useful for a) male contraception; b) treatment of a variety of hormone-related conditions, for example conditions associated with Androgen Decline in Aging Male (ADAM), such as fatigue, depression, decreased libido, sexual dysfunction, erectile dysfunction, hypogonadism, osteoporosis, hair loss, anemia, obesity, sarcopenia, osteopenia, osteoporosis, benign prostate hyperplasia, alterations in mood and cognition and prostate cancer; c) treatment of conditions associated with Androgen Decline in Female (ADIF), such as sexual dysfunction, decreased sexual libido, hypogonadism, sarcopenia, osteopenia, osteoporosis, alterations in cognition and mood, depression, anemia, hair loss, obesity, endometriosis, breast cancer, uterine cancer and ovarian cancer; d) treatment and/or prevention of acute and/or chronic muscular wasting conditions; e) preventing and/or treating dry eye conditions; f) oral androgen replacement therapy; and/or g) decreasing the incidence of, halting or causing a regression of prostate cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to colchicine-binding site compounds having anti-cancer activity, compositions comprising the same, and their use for treating various forms of cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel compounds having anti-cancer activity, methods of making these compounds, and their use for treating cancer and drug-resistant tumors, e.g. melanoma, metastatic melanoma, drug resistant melanoma, prostate cancer and drug resistant prostate cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for reducing testosterone levels in a male subject and methods of treating, suppressing, reducing the incidence, reducing the severity, or inhibiting prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and methods of reducing high or increasing PSA levels and/or increasing SHBG levels in a subject suffering from prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The compounds of this invention suppress free or total testosterone levels despite castrate levels secondary to ADT and reduce high or increasing PSA levels. This reduction in testosterone levels may be used to treat prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, CRPC and mCRPC without causing bone loss, decreased bone mineral density, increased risk of bone fractures, increased body fat, hot flashes and/or gynecomastia.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel class of selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). The SERM compounds are applicable for use in the prevention and/or treatment of a variety of diseases and conditions including prevention and treatment of cancers such as prostate and breast cancer, osteoporosis, hormone-related diseases, hot flashes or vasomotor symptoms, neurological disorders, cardiovascular disease and obesity.
Abstract:
Compounds according to formula (I) are disclosed where Q is S, N, or O; X is optional, and can be O═, S═, ═N—NH2, ═N—OH, or —OH; Y is optional and can be —N(H)—, O, or C1 to C20 hydrocarbon; and R1 and R2 are each independently substituted or unsubstituted single-, fused- or multiple-ring aryl or (hetero)cyclic ring systems. Methods of making these compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds, and their use, particularly for treating or preventing cancer, are also disclosed.
Abstract:
This invention provides methods for treatment and inhibition of a male subject having an Androgen Decline in Aging Male (ADAM)-associated condition, for example sexual dysfunction, decreased sexual libido, erectile dysfunction, hypogonadism, sarcopenia, osteopenia, osteoporosis, an alteration in cognition and mood, depression, anemia, hair loss, obesity, muscle loss, dry eye, memory loss, benign prostate hyperplasia and/or prostate cancer, by administering to the subject a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) compound and/or its analog, derivative, isomer, metabolite, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, pharmaceutical product, hydrate, N-oxide, pro-drug, polymorph, crystal, or any combination thereof.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to a feed composition and method of affecting the carcass composition by increasing the lean mass, reducing the fat mass, and/or reducing the percent fat mass comprising SARM compounds.
