Masofaniten, also known by its developmental code nameEPI-7386, is anN-terminal domain antiandrogen, orantagonist of theN-terminal domain (NTD) of theandrogen receptor (AR), which is under development for the treatment ofprostate cancer.[1][2][3][4] The compound was developed as a successor of previous drugs in the EPI series such asEPI-001,ralaniten (EPI-002), andralaniten acetate (EPI-506).[2][3][4] Masofaniten shows 20-fold higherantiandrogenicpotency than ralanitenin vitro (IC50Tooltip Half-maximal inhibitory concentration = 535 nM vs. 9,580 nM, respectively), as well as greater stability in humanhepatocytes.[2][3][4] It was planned to enterphase Iclinical trials in 2020.[4] Preliminary results of a phase I/II clinical trial were published in 2023.[5][6] The development of masofaniten was discontinued in 2024 following disappointing clinical trial results.[1][7]
