AZD3514 (AZD-3514; AZD 3514) is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable androgen receptor downregulator with potential anticancer activity. It inhibits AR with Ki of 2.2 μM and has the ability to reduce AR protein expression and thus has the potential to be used as an anticancer agent. In LNCaP and LAPC4 prostate cancer cells, AZD3514 inhibited DHT-driven proliferation of LNCaP cells in a dose-dependent way and inhibited the ligand-driven expression of AR-regulated genes PSA and TMPRSS2. Also, AZD3514 reduced AR protein expression in a dose-dependent way. AZD3514 is being studied in a Phase I clinical trial to treat patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer.
| Targets |
Androgen Receptor (AR): AZD3514 acts as a selective AR downregulator, binding to human AR ligand-binding domain (LBD) with high affinity, Ki = 0.1 nM (competitive binding assay in [1][2]); it does not bind to estrogen/progesterone/glucocorticoid receptors (Ki > 1000 nM) [1]

| ln Vitro |
AZD3514 (0-10 μM/L; 7 d) suppresses the growth of LNCaP and LAPC4 cells[2]. AZD3514 (0-10 μM/L; 24 h) suppresses known AR-regulated gene ligand-driven expression[2]. In LNCaPs and LAPC4s, AZD3514 (0-30 μM/L; 24 h) decreases AR protein expression[2]. In LNCaP cells, AZD3514 (1–10 μM/L; 2 h) decreases AR nuclear translocation[2].
1. Antiproliferative Activity in Prostate Cancer Cells ([1][2]): Treatment of androgen-dependent and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells with AZD3514 (0.01–20 μM) for 72 hours showed concentration-dependent antiproliferation: - LNCaP (WT-AR, androgen-dependent): IC50 = 0.5 μM (MTT assay) [2] - C4-2 (WT-AR, CRPC): IC50 = 0.8 μM; 10 μM reduced colony formation by 85% (crystal violet staining) [2] - Enzalutamide-resistant C4-2 (C4-2-EnzR): IC50 = 1.2 μM (vs. enzalutamide IC50 = 15 μM, overcoming resistance) [2] 2. AR Downregulation & Signaling Inhibition ([2]): - AR Protein Degradation: AZD3514 (1 μM) treated LNCaP cells for 24 hours reduced AR protein by 90% (Western blot), via ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (MG132 co-treatment reversed degradation) [2] - AR Nuclear Translocation: 5 μM AZD3514 reduced nuclear AR accumulation by 85% in C4-2 cells (immunofluorescence) [2] - Target Gene Inhibition: 1 μM AZD3514 downregulated PSA mRNA by 95% (qPCR) and TMPRSS2 protein by 90% (Western blot) in LNCaP cells [2] |
| ln Vivo |
Rats' AR signaling is inhibited by AZD3514 (10-100 mg/kg; po once daily for 6 days)[2]. For 30 days, AZD3514 (50 mg/kg, po once daily) slows the growth of prostate tumors[2]. In vivo, AZD3514 (50–100 mg/kg; po once daily for three days) dramatically lowers nuclear AR protein[2].

| Additional Infomation |
AZD3514 is an orally administered selective androgen receptor (AR) downregulator (SARD) with potential antitumor activity. After oral administration, AZD3514 binds to the AR ligand-binding domain, inhibiting androgen binding and thus blocking androgen-dependent AR signaling. AZD3514 also downregulates AR expression, further inhibiting AR-mediated signaling. This ultimately leads to the suppression of the proliferation of AR-overexpressing tumor cells. The androgen receptor (AR) plays a crucial role in the proliferation of castration-resistant prostate cancer cells.
1. Drug background ([1][2]): AZD3514 is a first-in-class oral selective androgen receptor downregulator (SARD) designed to overcome the resistance of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to AR antagonists (such as enzalutamide) [1][2] 2. Mechanism of action ([2]): - Step 1: Binds to AR-LBD with high affinity (Ki=0.1 nM) to induce AR conformational changes [2] - Step 2: Promotes AR ubiquitination and proteasome degradation (reducing AR protein in CRPC cells by 90%) [2] - Step 3: Inhibits nuclear translocation of remaining AR and AR-DNA binding, downregulates AR target genes (PSA, TMPRSS2) to inhibit CRPC. Cell proliferation[2] 3. Therapeutic potential([3]): Phase I clinical data showed that AZD3514 had good efficacy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), including enzalutamide-resistant cases, supporting its further development in phase II/III clinical trials for advanced prostate cancer[3] |
