CREB5 Promotes Resistance to Androgen-Receptor Antagonists and Androgen Deprivation in Prostate Cancer (Cell Reports)

Advanced prostate cancers develop resistance to androgen receptor (AR)-targeting therapies. Hwang et al. show that resistant prostate cancers overexpress or amplify CREB5, mediating resistance to AR inhibition. CREB5 suppression reduces the viability of therapy-resistant patient-derived models, suggesting that CREB5 is a target in prostate cancer patients with limited treatment options.
