ARCC-4 is a low-nanomolar androgen receptor (AR) degrader based on PROTAC, with a DC50 of 5 nM. ARCC-4 is an enzalutamide-based von Hippel-Lindau (VHL)-recruiting AR PROTAC and outperforms enzalutamide. ARCC-4 effectively degrades clinically relevant AR mutants associated with antiandrogen therapy[1].ARCC-4 induces apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation of AR-amplified prostate cancer cells[1].
ARCC-4 enhances protein-protein interactions between AR and VHL, thereby promoting the association of the trimeric complex[1].
ARCC-4 (0.1-10,000 nM; 20 hours) potently degrades AR with a D50 of 5 nM and Dmax of over 95%[1].
ARCC-4 (100 nM; 12 hours) shows near complete AR degradation (>98%) in prostate cancer cells[1].
ARCC-4 selectively degrades AR via the proteasome but not PR-A or PR-B suppression[1].
ARCC-4 shows efficacy against clinically relevant AR mutations[1].
ARCC-4 maintains activity despite elevated androgen levels[1].
