Abstrakt: Radiotherapy is a non-invasive standard treatment for prostate cancer (PC). However, PC develops radio-resistance, highlighting a need for agents to improve radiotherapy response. Canagliflozin, an inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2, is approved for use in diabetes and heart failure, but is also shown to inhibit PC growth. However, whether canagliflozin can improve radiotherapy response in PC remains unknown. Here, we show that well-tolerated doses of canagliflozin suppress proliferation and survival of androgen-sensitive and insensitive human PC cells and tumors and sensitize them to radiotherapy. Canagliflozin blocks mitochondrial respiration, promotes AMPK activity, inhibits the MAPK and mTOR-p70 S6k /4EBP1 pathways, activates cell cycle checkpoints, and inhibits proliferation in part through HIF-1α suppression. Canagliflozin mediates transcriptional reprogramming of several metabolic and survival pathways known to be regulated by ETS and E2F family transcription factors. Genes downregulated by canagliflozin are associated with poor PC prognosis. This study lays the groundwork for clinical investigation of canagliflozin in PC prevention and treatment in combination with radiotherapy.
