How Topsalysin works
PRX302 is a targeted pro-drug that turns into a potent anti-cancer agent once activated by the enzyme, prostate specific antigen (PSA), produced in high levels by prostate cancer and hyperplastic prostate cells. Once activated, PRX302 destroys the cells by punching holes in the cell membrane.
