Chemistry:Arcarine

From HandWiki

Arcarine (ORM-11984) is a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) developed by Orion Corporation, a Finnish pharmaceutical company.[1][2][3] It belongs to a class of drugs designed to have tissue-selective androgenic effects, potentially offering the benefits of androgens while minimizing unwanted side effects.[1] Arcarine was investigated for the treatment of various conditions, including benign prostatic hyperplasia, hypogonadism, and osteoporosis.[4][5] The compound reached Phase I clinical trials before development was discontinued.[4] Like other SARMs, Arcarine was developed to potentially provide anabolic effects in muscle and bone tissue while having reduced androgenic effects in other tissues, such as the prostate.[4]
