How It Works

Proapaci 60mg Tablet belongs to the class of selective androgen receptor (AR) inhibitor that binds to the androgen receptor binding domain. The multiplication of prostate cancer depends on the sex hormone androgen. In some cases, cancer becomes resistant to standard hormonal therapies, androgen receptors function continuously and promote cancer growth. Proapaci blocks the signaling pathway, DNA binding, protein transportation in the nucleus, and AR-mediated transcription, which leads to the replication of the cancer cells. Proapaci 60mg Tablet inhibits receptor activation and prevents them from binding to androgen. In that way, it lowers the growth and multiplication of the cancer cells.
