Purpose:

Our previous investigations demonstrated that the virus-like particles (VLPs) of JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) can deliver exogenous genes to prostate cancer cells for expression. JCPyV VLPs packaging pPSAtk (PSAtk-VLPs) possess the ability to transcriptionally target and selectively induce cytotoxicity only in prostate cancer cells. Thereafter, in the present study, we would further investigate whether PSAtk-VLPs inhibit the growth of metastasized prostate cancer cells.

Materials and Methods:

We established a CRPC cell line, 22Rv1-Luc, facilitating the use of an in vivo imaging system during the experiment. Furthermore, we established an animal model of bone-metastatic prostate cancer to compare PSAtk-VLPs with leuprorelin acetate and enzalutamide, hormonal agents commonly used in clinical settings, and investigated the effectiveness of PSAtk-VLPs in mCRPC.

Results:

In the present study, we observed that PSAtk-VLPs effectively inhibited the growth of prostate cancer cells that had metastasized to the bone in the metastatic animal model. In addition, PSAtk-VLPs showed a higher effectiveness than hormone therapy in this animal model study.

Conclusion:

These results suggest that PSAtk-VLPs may serve as a treatment option for mCRPC therapy in the future.
