RAD140 is an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) that is developed by Radius Health, Inc. for use in androgen replacement therapy. It was licensed to Ellipses Pharmaceuticals in 2020.[1][2][3][4] Some of the potential benefits under investigation are for the treatment of conditions such as muscle wasting and bone loss.

Clinical trials

The first-in-human study was initiated in October of 2017 and completed in September 2020 in postmenopausal women with breast cancer.[5][6]

In early 2020 a single case report of drug-induced liver injury following use of RAD 140 was published.[7][8]

Animal studies

RAD 140 appears to be safer than testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in rats.[9]

RAD 140 slightly increased lean muscle mass when used in primates, by targeting androgen receptors in skeletal tissue.[10]
