Androgen receptor antagonists: a patent review (2008 – 2011)
Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 2012Androgen receptor (AR) antagonists are predominantly used as chemical castration to treat prostate cancer (i.e., in conjunction with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT)). Unfortunately, castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) typically develops that is refractory to targeted therapy.

Advances in the computational development of androgen receptor antagonists
Drug Discovery Today, 2020The androgen receptor is a ligand-dependent transcriptional factor and an essential therapeutic target for prostate cancer. Competitive binding of antagonists to the androgen receptor can alleviate aberrant activation of the androgen receptor in prostate cancer.

Preliminary investigations into triazole derived androgen receptor antagonists
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry, 2014A range of 1,4-substituted-1,2,3-N-phenyltriazoles were synthesized and evaluated as non-steroidal androgen receptor (AR) antagonists. The motivation for this study was to replace the N-phenyl amide portion of small molecule antiandrogens with a 1,2,3-triazole and determine effects, if any, on biological activity.

[2.2.1]-Bicyclic sultams as potent androgen receptor antagonists
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2016This letter describes the discovery, synthesis, SAR, and biological activity of [2.2.1]-bicyclic sultams as potent antagonists of the androgen receptor. Optimization of the series led to the identification of compound 25, which displayed robust pharmacodynamic effects in rats after oral dosing.

Androgens and acne: perspectives on clascoterone, the first topical androgen receptor antagonist
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2021Introduction: Increased circulating androgens are key to the multifactorial pathogenesis of acne. Clascoterone is the first topical androgen antagonist developed to treat acne in both male and female patients and the first such agent to receive U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for treatment of acne.

TAS3681: New class of androgen receptor antagonist with androgen receptor downregulating activity.
Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2015266 Background: The persistent activation of the androgen receptor (AR) signaling axis plays a major role in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). This knowledge has driven the clinical development of new inhibitors of androgen production (e.g., abiraterone) and AR signaling (e.g., enzalutamide).

Cimetidine, a Histamine H2Receptor Antagonist, Occupies Androgen Receptors*
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1979The histamine H2 receptor antagonist cimetidine is in increasing usage in the medical management of peptic ulcer. In clinical trials, its most frequent side effect is gynecomastia. Such estrogenic/antiandrogenic manifestations are well known side effects of treatment with digitoxin or spirolactones.

Resistance to second-generation androgen receptor antagonists in prostate cancer
Nature Reviews Urology, 2021The introduction of second-generation androgen receptor antagonists (SG-ARAs) has greatly impacted the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer, providing tolerable and efficacious alternatives to chemotherapy. SG-ARAs provide similar therapeutic benefit to abiraterone, a potent CYP17 inhibitor, and do not require the co-administration of prednisone ...

Rational drug design for androgen receptor and glucocorticoids receptor dual antagonist
European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2019Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most frequently diagnosed male malignant tumor and remains the second leading cause of male cancer mortality in the western countries. The second-generation antiandrogen enzalutamide (ENZa) can prolong survival time for patients with mCRPC.

Steroid derivatives as pure antagonists of the androgen receptor
The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2012While the androgens of testicular origin (representing about 50% of total androgens in men over 50 years) can be completely eliminated by surgical or medical castration with GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone) agonists or antagonists, the antiandrogens currently available as blockers of androgen binding to the androgen receptor (AR), namely ...
