Cyproterone acetate (Cyproterone 17-O-acetate) binds the androgen receptor (AR), thereby preventing androgen-induced receptor activation in target tissues and inhibiting the growth of testosterone-sensitive tumor cells. Cyproterone acetate is the acetate salt of a synthetic steroidal antiandrogen with weak progestational and antineoplastic activities. This agent also exerts progestational agonist properties at the level of the pituitary that reduce luteinizing hormone (LH), resulting in reductions in testicular androgen secretion and serum testosterone levels. Treatment with cyproterone alone results in incomplete suppression of serum testosterone levels.Cyproterone binds the androgen receptor (AR), thereby preventing androgen-induced receptor activation in target tissues and inhibiting the growth of testosterone-sensitive tumor cells.

Bioymifi (DR5 Activator) is an effective activator of the TRAIL receptor DR5, binding to the extracellular domain (ECD) of DR5 with a Kd of 1.2 μM. Bioymifi can serve as a novel mimetic of TNF-related apoptosis-induced ligand (TRAIL), inducing DR5 aggregation as a sole inducer, and stimulating cell apoptosis.

Conatumumab (AMG 655) is a monoclonal agonist antibody targeting human death receptor 5 [DR5, TRAILR2] with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 1 nM for long DR5 and 0.8 nM for short DR5. It induces apoptosis in various tumor types through caspase activation and can be used to study advanced solid tumors.
