A Phase 2 Open-Label Study to Investigate the Pharmacodynamics and Clinical Activity of IPI-504 in Patients With Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Stratified by Prior Chemotherapy
IPI-504 is a novel, water-soluble analog of 17-AAG and a potent inhibitor of Hsp90. Hsp90's
role in the cell is to control the proper folding, function, and viability of various
"client" proteins. Many of these client proteins (such as AKT, Her-2, Bcr-Abl, PDGFR-α, and
c-Kit) are oncoproteins or important cell signaling proteins. Inhibition of HSP-90 leads to
the proteasomal degradation of these proteins.
In patients with HRPC,there are several proteins that are important in the progression of
HRPC, including AR, AKT and Her-2. All of these are client proteins of Hsp90 and in
response to Hsp90 inhibition are degraded by their proteasome. Preclinical studies have
shown that Hsp90 inhibition causes a dose dependent degradation of these client proteins
and growth inhibition of prostate cancer in xenograft tumors.
