N-Myc fuels neuroendocrine prostate cancer. Here, the authors describe how targeting HSP70, a major N-Myc partner, coordinates with STUB1 to facilitate the degradation of N-Myc. This process slows neuroendocrine prostate cancer growth, improves the efficacy of Aurora Kinase A inhibitors, and reduces neuroendocrine pathway activity.
