FCE 28260

FCE 28260 is an azasteroidal 5α-reductase inhibitor which was developed for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic alopecia (pattern hair loss) in the 1990s but was never marketed.[1][2][3] FCE 28260 has been found to inhibit rat and human 5α-reductase with half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 15 and 16 nM, respectively, while finasteride had values of 30 and 52 nM.[1]
