    Product Description

    PF-998425 is a non-steroidal androgen receptor antagonist (IC50 = 43 nM in a cell-based assay).1 It binds to the androgen receptor (IC50 = 37 nM in a radioligand binding assay) and is selective for the androgen receptor over the progesterone receptor (IC50 = >10,000 nM). Topical administration of PF-998425 (3% twice per day) increases hair growth in a mouse model of hair growth, as well as reduces ear sebum in male Syrian golden hamsters (ED50 = 0.4% twice per day).

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
