The efficacies of the steroidal antiandrogens chlormadinone acetate (CMA), 17 α-acetoxy-6-chloro-2-oxa-4, 6-pregnadiene-3, 20-dione (TZP), and cyproterone acetate (CypA) for retardation of the growth of androgen-dependent human prostatic adenocarcinoma transplanted into nude mice (Honda tumor) were tested. CypA inhibited the growth of these tumors, while CMA and TZP did not affect the weight of cancer tissue at the doses examined. Serum levels of human prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) in the tumor-bearing mice were very sensitive to the administration of antiandrogens, but the levels were not dependent on the changes in tumor weight. In contrast, human prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in the blood of the host mice were correlated with the weight of the tumors, and were independent of treatment with antiandrogens. Castration of the cancer-bearing mice resulted in reductions in all experimental parameters tested. The validity of PSA-secreting androgen-dependent human prostate cancer xenograft as a tool for screening of efficacious antiandrogens will be discussed.
