Cortexolone 17 alpha-propionate

SKU: orb1225781

Description

Cortexolone 17 alpha-propionate (CB-03-01, Clascoterone) is a topical and peripherally selective androgen antagonist, displays a strong local antiandrogenic activity in hamster's flank organ test, does not exhibit antiandrogenic activity after subcutaneous injection in vivo.Other Indication Phase 3 Clinical(In Vivo):Clascoterone is a new potent topical antiandrogen potentially useful in acne vulgaris. Clascoterone 1% cream was very well tolerated, and was significantly better than placebo regarding TLC (P = 0·0017), ILC (P = 0·0134) and ASI (P = 0·0090), and also clinically more effective than comparator. The product also induced a faster attainment of 50% improvement in all the above parameters.
