Description
2-hydroxyFlutamide is an androgen receptor (AR) inhibitor . The androgen receptor has been implicated in the development and progression of prostate cancer. AR is expressed in many androgen-independent or hormone refractory prostate cancers and is maintained throughout prostate cancer progression. Inactivation of AR may delay prostate cancer progression . 2-hydroxyFlutamide is the major metabolite of flutamide generated during the metabolism of the non-steroidal antiandrogen flutamide by CYP1A2 and CYP3A4. Flutamide is an antiandrogenic drug which has been widely used for treatment of prostate cancer. 2-hydroxyflutamide could inhibit flutamide metabolism. In cells, increased conversion of flutamide to 2-hydroxyflutamide or accumulation of 2-hydroxyflutamide may result in the anomalous responses to flutamide, which can be observed in some advanced prostate cancers . 2-hydroxy flutamide blocked the expression of AR target genes and prevented androgen-dependent stabilization of the AR . 2-hydroxyFlutamide was a more powerful antiandrogen in vivo, with higher binding affinity for the AR than flutamide. In humans, hydroxyflutamide exhibited an elimination halflife of about 8 h .
