EPI-001 is a small-molecule inhibitor of androgen receptor N-terminal domain. EPI-001 could target the amino terminal domain of the AR and inhibit the protein-protein interactions which are necessary for AR transcriptional activity. The androgen receptor (AR) is involved in mediating the actions of male sex steroids. Amplification and over-expression of androgen receptor gene may result in hormone-refractory prostate cancer [1].
In vitro: EPI-001 inhibited the ligand-dependent ARGal4 transcriptional activity in LNCaP cells and the ligand-independent ARGal4 transcriptional activity in the CRPC C4-2 cell line. In a panel of cell lines, EPI-001 treatment decreased the mRNA expression level of AR protein after 8 and 16 h treatment, such as androgen sensitive PCa, CRPC, LNCap, C4-2, and LAPC4 cell line. EPI-001 dose-dependently inhibited the PCa/CRPC cell growth [2].
In vivo: Intravenous injection of EPI-001 significantly reduced the weight of benign prostates and blocked the growth of prostate cancer xenograft from noncastrated mature mice. EPI-001 caused tumor regression of CRPC. In male mice bearing LNCaP xenografts, after treated with EPI- 001 by i.v. injection for 2 weeks, the tumor size was less than half of the control group [3].

Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.
Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
