Seviteronel (VT-464) is a potent CYP17 lyase inhibitor(h-Lyase IC50=69 nM) that demonstrated both exceptional in vitro lyase/hydroxylase selectivity (~10-fold) and oral activity in a hamster model of androgen biosynthesis inhibition. IC50: 69 nM(h-CYP17 Lyase)[1].

Seviteronel (VT-464), a non-steroidal small molecule inhibits androgen production without mineralocorticoid excess or cortisol depletion by selective inhibition of CYP17 17,20-lyase. We determined the impact of Seviteronel (VT-464) on tumor growth of a mCRPC xenograft, MDA-PCa-133, in vivo, and on androgen signaling in C4-2B prostate cancer cells in vitro[2].

The MDA-PCa-133 xenograft is derived from a clinical CRPC bone metastasis. Subcutaneous MDA-PCa-133 tumor expresses PSA, full-length androgen receptor (AR) and AR-V7 isoform. We determined the effect of Seviteronel (VT-464) and AA on MDA-PCa-133 growing in tumor-bearing castrated male mice: randomization into three groups; oral treatment with vehicle only, VT-464, (100 mg/kg bid), or AA (100 mg/kg bid) for 25 days. Both Seviteronel (VT-464) and AA reduced tumor volume (>two fold compared to vehicle; p<0.05). These results indicate that selective Seviteronel (VT-464) CYP17 lyase inhibition is as effective as AA CYP17 inhibition in this model [2].
