QUICK LINKS

Abiraterone acetate has been seen to be a novel steroidal inhibitor of CYP17A1(C17,20 lyase), a rate-limiting enzyme in androgen biosynthesis. The compound has been shown to be apporximately 21-24 times more potent than ketoconazole (sc-200496) and liarozole (sc-204055) in CYP17A1 lyase inhibition. Abiraterone Acteate is actively being researched as a treatment for castration resistent prostate cancer.
