GTx-027 is a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) which was under development for or of potential interest in the treatment of breast cancer and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) but was never marketed. [2] [3] [1] [4] [5] It is taken by mouth. [1]

Description

The drug is a nonsteroidal androgen receptor (AR) modulator with mixed agonistic (androgenic) and antagonistic (antiandrogenic) effects. [1] [5] It has been found to reduce the growth of androgen receptor-expressing MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells in vitro . [6] [7] In addition, it has been found to increase pelvic floor muscle weight in ovariectomized female rodents. [1] [8] [4] The drug has been found to increase body weight, lean body mass, and muscle strength in animals as well. [9] [10] In terms of chemical structure, GTx-027 is a nonsteroidal arylpropionamide SARM and is an analogue of enobosarm (ostarine; GTx-024). [1] [4]

GTx-027 was first described in the scientific literature by 2013. [5] [11] It is said to have either not passed preclinical research [1] or to have reached phase 1 clinical trials prior to the discontinuation of its development. [3] The drug was developed by GTx. [2] [3]

After 2 weeks, the body weights of the GTx-026-treated mice were greater than those of the vehicle-treated mice, with this difference increasing in magnitude throughout the duration of the study (62% in GTx-026-treated mice vs 31% in vehicle-treated mice; P < 0.001) (Fig. 2B). GTx-026 treatment also increased lean mass (20% vs 60%; P < 0.001) compared with vehicle treatment. Consistent with the increase in lean mass, grip strength also increased in the GTx-026-treated animals (Fig. 2B). These results were reproduced with the other two SARMs, GTx-024 and GTx-027, indicating that these effects are SARM-dependent (Supplementary Material, Fig. S1B).
