Ralaniten triacetate (EPI-506), the pro-agent of Ralaniten, is a first-in-class, orally active androgen receptor (AR) N-terminal domain (NTD) inhibitor. Ralaniten triacetate shows activity against both full length and resistance-related AR species, including AR-v7.
In Vitro
Ralaniten triacetate (EPI-506) targets the N-terminal domain of the androgen receptor (AR), and is used for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) research. EPI-506 is a first-in-class, highly-specific small molecule that binds to a novel target on the AR, the N-terminal domain (NTD) and directly inhibits AR transcriptional activity by blocking the interaction of the AR with transcriptional proteins. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
