説明
Fluoxymesterone(Halotestin) is a steroid with an androgenic property that is used in primary hypogonadism and testicular failure due to cryptorchidism, vanishing testes syndrome, or orchidectomy; and in hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism and luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) deficiency or pituitary hypothalamic injury from tumors, trauma, or radiation. It mimics the actions of testosterone, which is responsible for normal growth and development of the male sex organs and for the maintenance of secondary sex characteristics. In female postmenopausal patients, fluoxymesterone may be indicated in the palliation of recurrent mammary cancer.

使用
Fluoxymesterone is an anabolic steroid with androgenic activity. It is used in the treatment of male hypogonadism. It showed antitumor effects on pregnancy-dependent mammary tumors TPDMT-4.
適応症
Fluoxymesterone promotes growth and development of male reproductive organs, maintains secondary sex characteristics, increases protein anabolism, and decreases protein catabolism. It is used to treat symptoms of low testosterone in adult men who have hypogonadism (a condition in which the body does not produce enough natural testosterone). It is also used for palliation of androgen-responsive recurrent mammary cancer in women who are more than 1 year but less than 5 years postmenopausal (women).
定義
ChEBI: Fluoxymesterone is an anabolic androgenic steroid, a 17beta-hydroxy steroid, an 11beta-hydroxy steroid, a fluorinated steroid and a 3-oxo-Delta(4) steroid. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent and an anabolic agent.
一般的な説明
Fluoxymesterone, 9α-fluoro-11β,17β-dihydroxy-17-methylandrost-4-en-3-one, is ahighly potent, orally active androgen, about 5 to 10 timesmore potent than testosterone. It can be used for all theindications discussed previously, but its great androgenicactivity has made it useful primarily for treatment of theandrogen-deficient male.
薬物動態学
By substituting a 9α-fluoro group onto an analog of 17α-methyltestosterone, fluoxymesterone has 20
times the anabolic and 10 times the androgenic activity of 17α-methyltestosterone. It
has a mean half-life of 9 hours, and less than 5% of the drug is excreted unchanged. An adverse
effect of fluoxymesterone is sodium and water retention that could lead to edema.
安全性プロファイル
Fluoxymesterone is contraindicated in male subjects with known or suspected carcinoma of the prostate gland. Prolonged use of high-dosage 17-alpha-alkyl androgens is known to have caused hypercalcemia, hepatic adenoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and hepatitis. Fluoxymesterone, which accelerates bone maturation without producing linear growth, should be used cautiously in males with delayed puberty. Edema and CHF may occur in patients with preexisting cardiovascular problems. Androgens cause virilization in female subjects.
