These and other materials are disclosed herein, and it is understood that when combinations, subsets, interactions, groups, etc. of these materials are disclosed that while specific reference of each various individual and - collective permutation of these compounds may not be explicitly disclosed, each is specifically contemplated and described herein. For example, if a particular VES or VES derivative are disclosed and discussed and a number of modifications that can be made to a number of molecules including the VES or VES derivative are discussed, specifically contemplated is each and every combination and permutation of VES or VES derivative and the modifications that are possible unless specifically indicated to the contrary.
- compositions comprising VES and VES derivatives. Also disclosed are compositions comprising VES or VES derivatives and an antiandrogen. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising VES or VES derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions comprising VES or VES derivatives and an antiandrogen are also disclosed.
- Antiandrogens typically are compositions that inhibit the activity of androgen receptor and include for example hydroxyflutamide (HF). Preferred are antiandrogens that function as HF. Also preferred are antiandrogens that function as HF and which are structurally related to HF.
- HF hydroxyflutamide
- VES can suppress the expression of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a marker for the progression of prostate cancer.
- PSA prostate-specific antigen
- VES can also suppress androgen receptor (AR) expression by means of transcriptional and posttranscriptional modulation, but not ligand binding, nuclear translocation, or AR dimerization. This VES-mediated inhibition of AR is selective because VES does not repress the expression of other nuclear receptors.
- Cell growth studies further show that VES inhibits the growth of prostate cancer LNCaP cells.
- hydroxyflutamide (HF) an antiandrogen currently used to treat prostate cancer patients, only slightly inhibits LNCaP cell growth.
- simultaneous addition of HF and VES results in a more significant inhibition of LNCaP cell growth.
- SM selenomethionine
- Prostate cancer is the most common noncutaneous cancer and second leading cause of cancer death in American men (8).
- the androgen receptor (AR) is required for the development of both the normal prostate gland and prostate cancer.
- AR is a critical factor in the development and differentiation of the prostate gland and prostate cancer. In the later stages of prostate cancer, more than 80% of prostate cancer tissues remain positive for AR staining (34).
- Prostate-specific antigen is a key androgen-regulated gene, and is a sensitive and selective marker for prostate cancer screening and assessment (14). Consequently, PSA is used as an indicator of disease progression and response for prostate cancer therapies.
- PSA Prostate-specific antigen
- LNCaP human prostate cancer cell line (15) was used as a cell model to study the potential mechanisms of VES to prevent prostate cancer development and progression. VES decreases intracellular and secreted levels of PSA in LNCaP cells, which have been cultured either in normal serum or in androgen-stimulated conditions.
- the inhibition of AR protein is not only because of regulation of AR mRNA level, but also because VES affects the efficiency of AR protein translation.
- the LNCaP cell line is derived from lymph node prostate cancer metastasis
- LNCaP cells express a functional mutant AR, and produce PSA, which is a sensitive and specific tumor marker for prostate cancer screening and assessment (22, 30-32). Whereas both the wild-type AR and the LNCaP mutant respond to androgen, estrogenic compounds and some androgens bind to the LNCaP mutant AR with higher affinity, and more effectively stimulate AR-transcriptional activity and PSA expression (12, 33).
- TAP 46-kDa tocopherol-associated protein
- vitamin E inhibits the translation of AR.
- Anti-proliferative therapies can be enhanced by providing reagents that target different pathways or mechanisms for cellular survival or phenotype.
- combinations of vitamin E succinate derivatives with other reagents for the treatment or prevention of prostate cancer are disclosed.
- Vitamin E is shown in formula I.
- Vitamin E has been shown to be involved in fertility and reproduction. Deficiency of vitamin E in rats leads to absorption in the female and loss of fertility on the male. Vitamin E has been shown to have antioxidant effects, which can protect cells from oxygen and free radical damage. Vitamin E has also been shown to be involved in the formation of red blood cells. Vitamin E can be found in vegetable lipids and in the body fat of animals, but animals cannot produce vitamin E on their own. For example, vitamin E can be found in vegetable oils, nuts and nut oils seeds, egg yolk, margarine, Parmesan, Cheddar, chickpeas, soya beans, wheat germ, oatmeal, avocados, olives, carrots, parsnips, red peppers, green leafy vegetables, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, sweet corn, and watercress.
- Vitamin E has a general structure related to the tocopherols, and vitamin E derivatives are typically methylated forms of tocol. There are at least four derivatives of vitamin E which can be naturally: alpha - tocopherol, C29H50 O2 is 5,7,8,-trimethyltocol - which is associated with the strongest general vitamin E activity, beta - tocopherol C28H48 O2 is 5,8,-trimethyltocol, gamma - tocopherol C28H48 O2 is 7,8,-trimethyltocol, and delta - tocopherol C27H46 O2 is 8,- trimethyltocol.
- alpha - tocopherol C29H50 O2 is 5,7,8,-trimethyltocol - which is associated with the strongest general vitamin E activity
- beta - tocopherol C28H48 O2 is 5,8,-trimethyltocol
- gamma - tocopherol C28H48 O2 is 7,8,-trimethyltocol
- Vitamin E can be found in natural and synthetic forms.
- the natural forms of vitamin E are typically all of the d-stereoisomer form (RRR-) (for example, d — tocopherol) while the synthetic forms are of the dl variety (for example, dl — tocopherol)
- esterified derivatives of vitamin E such as succmate derivative (VES).
- VES succmate derivative
- Esterified derivatives of vitamin E can occur at the ring hydroxyl shown in Formula I.
- succinate or acetate can be used to esterify this ring hydroxyl.
- RRR- ⁇ -tocopheryl succinate Another known derivative is RRR- ⁇ -tocopheryl succinate. The structure of vitamin E succinate is shown below.
- LH-RH agonists such as Lupron (Formula 3, Cas Nr 0053714-56-0)
- Nilutamide (Formula 7, Cas Nr. 0063612-50-0)
- 5- ⁇ reductase inhibitors such as Proscar (Finasteride) (Formula i as Nr. 0098319-26-7)
- DHT is the most effective ligand for AR with higher binding affinity that T.
- this compound is generally applied for BPH patients than for prostate cancer patients.
- Estrogen such as DES, estradiol, and Stilphosterol Honvan
- Estrogen have also been used in the treatment of prostate cancer. These molecules can decrease the amount of hormones from the hypothalamus. These molecules can decrease the T synthesis from testis by inducing a negative feed-back regulatioin in LH secretion from the pituitary gland and GnRH secretion from the hypothalamus.
- Other therapeutics include Ketoconazole (Nizoral), which can inhibit the cytochrome p459 enzyme system to reduce T synthesis, and steriods such as Hydrocortisone, Aminoglutethemide (Cytadren), dexmethasome (Decadron), and Cyproterone (Androcur).
- Ketoconazole is usually used as a second line hormone therapy in patients with stage IV recurrent prostatic cancer.
- Aminoglutethimide (Cytadren) blocks adrenal steroidogenesis by inhibiting the enzymatic conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone.
- Cypoterone is a steroidal antiandrogen with weak progestational activity that results in the partial suppression of pituitary gonadotropin and a decrease in serum T.
- Hydrocortisone and Decadron is to relieve the symptoms and increase the quality of life of prostate cancer patients. It is understood that combinations of these therapeutics are performed and herein disclosed.

- these compositions can be used in therapies directed at prostate cancer, and they can be used in conjunction with other prostate cancer therapies, such as the administration of anti-androgens, such as hydroxyflutamide (HF).
- HF hydroxyflutamide
- a composition is a pharmaceutical composition is a composition appropriately formulated such that it can be administered to a subject. Typically this would mean that the composition is present with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier as discussed herein. As described above, the compositions can also be administered in vivo in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- pharmaceutically acceptable is meant a material that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable, i.e., the material may be administered to a subject, along with the nucleic acid or vector, without causing any undesirable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any of the other components of the pharmaceutical composition in which it is contained.
- the carrier would naturally be selected to minimize any degradation of the active ingredient(s) and to minimize any adverse side effects in the subject, as would be well known to one of skill in the art.
- compositions may be administered orally, parenterally (e.g., intravenously), by intramuscular injection, by intraperitoneal injection, transdermally, extracorporeally, topically or the like, although topical intranasal administration or administration by inhalant is typically preferred.
- topical intranasal administration means delivery of the compositions into the nose and nasal passages through one or both of the nares and can comprise delivery by a spraying mechanism or droplet mechanism, or through aerosolization of the nucleic acid or vector. The latter may be effective when a large number of animals, such as humans, are to be treated simultaneously.
- Administration of the compositions by inhalant can be through the nose or mouth via delivery by a spraying or droplet mechanism.
- compositions can also be directly to any area of the respiratory system (e.g., lungs) via intubation.
- the exact amount of the compositions required will vary from subject to subject, depending on the species, age, weight and general condition of the subject, the severity of the allergic disorder being treated, the particular nucleic acid or vector used, its mode of administration and the like. Thus, it is not possible to specify an exact amount for every composition. However, an appropriate amount can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using only routine experimentation given the teachings herein.
- Parenteral administration of the composition is generally characterized by injection.
- Injectables can be prepared in conventional forms, either as liquid solutions or suspensions, solid forms suitable for solution of suspension in liquid prior to injection, or as emulsions.
- a more recently revised approach for parenteral administration involves use of a slow release or sustained release system such that a constant dosage is maintained. See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 3,610,795, which is incorporated by reference herein.
- the materials may be in solution, suspension (for example, incorporated into microparticles, liposomes, or cells). These may be targeted to a particular cell type via antibodies, receptors, or receptor ligands.
- Vehicles such as "stealth” and other antibody conjugated liposomes (including lipid mediated drug targeting to colonic carcinoma), receptor mediated targeting of DNA through cell specific ligands, lymphocyte directed tumor targeting, and highly specific therapeutic retroviral targeting of murine glioma cells in vivo.
- the internalization pathways serve a variety of functions, such as nutrient uptake, removal of activated proteins, clearance of macromolecules, opportunistic entry of viruses and toxins, dissociation and degradation of ligand, and receptor-level regulation. Many receptors follow more than one intracellular pathway, depending on the cell type, receptor concentration, type of ligand, ligand valency, and ligand concentration. Molecular and cellular mechanisms of receptor-mediated endocytosis has been reviewed (Brown and Greene, DNA and Cell Biology 10:6, 399-409 (1991)). a) Pharmaceutically Acceptable Carriers
- compositions can be used therapeutically in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- compositions can be administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously. Any compound or composition that allows for the delivery of another composition to a subject, such that the delivery itself is not detrimental to the subject can be considered pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Other compounds will be administered according to standard procedures used by those skilled in the art.
- compositions may include carriers, thickeners, diluents, buffers, preservatives, surface active agents and the like in addition to the molecule of choice.
- Pharmaceutical compositions may also include one or more active ingredients such as antimicrobial agents, antiinflammatory agents, anesthetics, and the like.
- the pharmaceutical composition may be administered in a number of ways depending on whether local or systemic treatment is desired, and on the area to be treated. Administration may be topically (including ophthalmically, vaginally, rectally, intranasally), orally, by inhalation, or parenterally, for example by intravenous drip, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal or intramuscular injection.
- the disclosed compositions can be administered intravenously, intraperitoneally, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, intracavity, or transdermally.
- Preparations for parenteral administration include sterile aqueous or non- aqueous solutions, suspensions, and emulsions.
- non-aqueous solvents are propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate.
- Aqueous carriers include water, alcoholic/aqueous solutions, emulsions or suspensions, including saline and buffered media.
- Parenteral vehicles include sodium chloride solution, Ringer's dextrose, dextrose and sodium chloride, lactated Ringer's, or fixed oils.
- Intravenous vehicles include fluid and nutrient replenishers, electrolyte replenishers (such as those based on Ringer's dextrose), and the like. Preservatives and other additives may also be present such as, for example, antimicrobials, anti-oxidants, chelating agents, and inert gases and the like.
- Formulations for topical administration may include ointments, lotions, creams, gels, drops, suppositories, sprays, liquids and powders. Conventional pharmaceutical carriers, aqueous, powder or oily bases, thickeners and the like may be necessary or desirable.
- compositions for oral administration include powders or granules, suspensions or solutions in water or non-aqueous media, capsules, sachets, or tablets. Thickeners, flavorings, diluents, emulsifiers, dispersing aids or binders may be desirable.
- compositions may potentially be administered as a pharmaceutically acceptable acid- or base- addition salt, formed by reaction with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, perchloric acid, nitric acid, thiocyanic acid, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid, and organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, and fumaric acid, or by reaction with an inorganic base such as sodium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and organic bases such as mono-, di-, trialkyl and aryl amines and substituted ethanolamines.
- inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, perchloric acid, nitric acid, thiocyanic acid, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid
- organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, glyco
- the dosage ranges for the administration of the compositions are those large enough to produce the desired effect in which the symptoms disorder are affected.
- the dosage should not be so large as to cause adverse side effects, such as unwanted cross-reactions, anaphylactic reactions, and the like.
- the dosage will vary with the age, condition, sex and extent of the disease in the patient and can be determined by one of skill in the art.
- the dosage can be adjusted by the individual physician in the event of any counterindications. Dosage can vary, and can be administered in one or more dose administrations daily, for one or several days.
- compositions comprising VES or VES derivatives that inhibit PSA and antiandrogen compounds that inhibit androgen activity.
- a preferred antiandrogen compound is HF.

- the human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP was obtained from the American Type Culture collection (Rockville, MD). Fibroblast cell was primarily cultured from normal prostate tissue. LNCaP cells were propagated in 12-well, 60mm or 100mm culture dishes at the desired density in RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco, Rockville, MD) supplemented with 8% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Gibco, Rockville, MD) at 37°C and 5% CO 2 until reaching 60%-80% confluence or were grown in phenol red-free RPMI medium 1640 with 8% fetal bovine serum (FBS). The fibroblast cells were maintained in DMEM (Gibco, Rockville, MD) with 10% FBS.
- RPMI 1640 medium Gibco, Rockville, MD
- FBS fetal bovine serum
- FBS fetal bovine serum
- the fibroblast cells were maintained in DMEM (Gibco, Rockville, MD) with 10% FBS.
- the cells were treated with VES at designated concentrations with or without other compounds (HF, Vit D 3 , DHT, Succinic acid).
- the cells were treated with Sue as a control, VES, HF, SM, or DHT at designated concentrations.
- the medium was changed every 4 days and fresh compounds were added every 2 days.
- MTT Cell counting and Thiazolyl Blue
- the MTT assay is a quantitative colorimetric assay for mammalian cell survival and proliferation (13, 16).
- the 5 x 10 4 LNCaP cells were seeded in 12-well plates. After 36-48 h, the medium was changed to phenol red free RPMI1640 with 8 % FBS or CS-FBS for another 2, 4, and 6 days, with different compound treatment with or without ligand.
- 200 ⁇ l of MTT (5 mg/ml; Sigma) was added into the each well with 1 ml of medium for 3 h at 37°C. After incubation, 2 ml of 0.04 M HC1 in isopropyl alcohol was added into each well.
- Total protein lysate from LNCaP cells was prepared as previously described (Yeh, PNAS). After separation of 50 ⁇ g protein by SDS-PAGE gel, proteins were transferred by electrophoresis to Immobilon-P membrane (Millipore Corp., Bedford, MA) and incubated in PBS with 0.1% Tween-20 and 10% FCS for 2 h. Primary antibodies specific for human AR, PSA, and ⁇ -actin were diluted in PBS with 0.1 % Tween-20 (PBST) as described in manual and incubated at room temperature for 2 h.
- PBST 0.1 % Tween-20
- Membranes were washed in PBST (three times, 10 min each time) and incubated with AP-conjugated secondary antibody which was diluted as described in manual in PBST and incubated for 2 h in room temperature, washed in PBST (three times, 10 min each time). The proteins were detected by AP western blotting reagents.
- the fragments of the human PSA, AR, and ⁇ -actin cDNA were labeled with [ 32 P]-dCTP using the random primed DNA labeling kit from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech.
- Membranes were prehybridized, hybridized, and washed using Rapid-hyb system from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, according to the manufacturer's user manual.
- the mRNA was detected using phosphorimager screen system (Molecular Dynamics).
- RIPA buffer 1% Nonidet P-40/0.1% SDS/0.5% sodium deoxycholate/1 x PBS
- PMSF 1 mM PMSF
- reaction buffer (0.15 M NaCl/0% Triton X-100/20 mM TrisHCl, pH 8.0) was added (20), and incubated for 2 h at 4°C with constant rocking. Twenty- five microliters of protein A/G beads, was added to the solution and incubated for 2 h at 4°C with constant rocking. Samples were centrifuged at 2,500 x g for 3 min at 4°C to collect the beads and then washed three times using ice-cold reaction buffer. Fifty microliters of 1.5 x SDS gel-loading buffer was added and boiled for 4 min. Aliquots (25 ⁇ l)were subjected to gel electrophoresis, followed by autoradiographic signal quantitation using IQMAC software (Molecular Dynamics).
- PSA promoter luciferase assay LNCaP cells were plated in 60-mm dishes until 60-70% confluence, and then transfected with 6-kb PSA promoter- linked luciferase reporter (PSA6.0-Luc) by using Superfect (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Twenty-four hours after transfection, the cells were treated with various compounds for an additional 24 h.
- N-C N-terminal/C-terminal
- simian virus 40 promoter driven Renilla luciferase SV40RL was used as an internal control.
- LNCaP cells were plated into 60-mm dishes and grown to 60% confluence. Cells were pretreated with ethanol or 10 ⁇ M VES (0.1 % vol/vol) for 24 h. Then medium was changed to RPMI 1640 with 8% CS-FBS, and competition ligand binding was performed by using 2.5 nM [3H]R1881, with or without 100-fold excess of unlabeled R1881 (250 nM) (18). After 1-h incubation, cells were harvested by lysis buffer (PBS with 1% Triton X-100). Equal protein amounts of cell extract were subjected to binding assays, which were terminated by adding hydroxylapatite.
- Fig. ⁇ A demonstrates that 5nM DHT can stimulate LNCaP cell growth, and the addition of 5 ⁇ M HF fails to repress this DHT-induced cell growth in medium with 8% CS- FBS. In contrast, the addition of lO ⁇ M VES effectively represses DHT-mediated cell growth.
- VES When tumor cells were replaced with primary cultured fibroblasts from normal prostate tissue, 10 ⁇ M VES had only a marginal inhibitory effect on cell growth (Fig. ID), suggesting that VES may have selective inhibitory effects on tumor cells that are androgen sensitive. Direct cell-number counting by using a hemocytometer further confirmed these cell growth results.
- VES Affects AR mRNA and Protein Expression As shown in Fig.3A, Northern blotting data indicate that VES inhibits AR mRNA and protein expression; however, PSA mRNA and protein levels begin to decrease at earlier times.
- LNCaP cells were cultured in RPMI 8% FCS or CS-FCS with 5 nM DHT in the absence or presence of lOuM VES.
- Whole cell extracts were collected for Western blotting analyses. Using NH27 anti-AR antibody, the results indicated that 10 uM VES but not 10 nM Vit D could suppress AR expression at the protein level. This repression is specific as 10 uM VES showed little effect on the PPARr expression (Fig. 2e-f).
- AR After binding to androgen(s), AR will form a dimer (23), translocate from the cytoplasm to the nucleus (24), and activate its target genes by recognition of androgen-response elements (25).
- a competition radioligand-binding assay was used to examine whether VES would affect AR-ligand-binding ability. Results show that unlabeled R1881 can compete for 95% of the specific binding, and VES treatment has little influence on AR ligand binding (Fig. AA). Next, whether VES affects the N-C interaction of AR, which has been suggested to play an important role in AR transactivation (26) was examined.
- a mammalian two-hybrid system which included the hinge and ligand-binding domain of AR fused with the GAL4- DBD (GAL-ARHLBD), the N terminus of AR fused withVPl ⁇ (VP16-ARN), and a pG5-Luc reporter (23) was used.
- the results show that 10 nM DHT triggers the AR N-C interaction and addition of 10 ⁇ M VES has little influence on the AR N-C interaction (Fig.4B, lane 3 vs. 4). Whether VES could influence translocation of AR was examined. Although VES has little influence on the AR distribution between cytosol and nucleus, the total AR-staining intensity is reduced, suggesting that VES may affect AR protein expression.
- These immunostaining results not only confirm the Northern and Western blotting assays, but also indicate that VES may function via a posttranscription pathway to down-regulate AR protein function.
- VES cannot influence the ligand-binding, N- C dimerization, and nuclear translocation of AR. Instead, VES reduces the overall AR-staining intensity, suggesting that VES may affect AR expression at the transcriptional or translational level.
- VES-mediated down-regulation of AR function was specific, the expression level of other nuclear receptors under the same conditions was examined.
- This VES-mediated AR repression is selective as 10 ⁇ M VES showed little effect on the PPAR ⁇ and RXR ⁇ expression (Fig. 35) and, in contrast, increased the expression of VDR (Fig. 35).
- SM is known to be the major source of selenium in the diet. 10 ⁇ M SM, which has been reported to inhibit LNCaP cell growth (29), was used. Although the
- VES but not selenium, down-regulates the expression of AR and PSA.
- the VES-mediated growth inhibition of prostate cancer cells may be partly due to down-regulated AR expression, and SM may function through other mechanisms to inhibit the growth of prostate cancer cells.
- VES effectively affects the protein level of AR expression. Pulse-chase labeling was performed to characterize whether VES affects the protein translational efficiency and stability. As shown in Figure 7, these results indicated that VES affects the protein stability of AR (from 2h to 6h) and consequently inhibit the accumulation of AR protein. (9) The effects of ⁇ -Vit E. ⁇ -Vit E and VES on the growth of LNCaP
- VES Vit D
- ⁇ -Vit E ⁇ -Vit E
- ⁇ -Vit E can inhibit the cell growth in RPMI 8 % FBS.
- the VES is the most effective compound, which does not correlate with its anti-oxidant capacity compared with other compounds.
- Microarray technology has been applied to further characterize the downstream targets of VES-mediated biological events.
- VES differentially inhibit the growth of cancer cells A primary cell culture of fibroblasts was established to show the efficiency of VES-mediated growth effects. These results indicated that VES differentially inhibit the LNCaP, but not primary cultured fibroblast cell growth.
- VES. VDR. and prostate cancer Western blotting analysis of AR expression showed that 10 ⁇ M VES can induce VDR expression.
