SRD5A2 is a critical enzyme for prostatic development and growth, and the SRD5A2 inhibitor, finasteride, is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). SRD5A2 is absent in 30% of normal adult men, which explains the resistance of a subset of patients to this commonly prescribed drug. This project proposes new combination therapies (5-ARI+raloxifene) and evaluates novel non-invasive biomarkers, based on alternative pathways that lead to prostatic enlargement.
