TFM-4AS-1 is a dual selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) and 5α-reductase inhibitor.[1][2] It is a potent and selective partial agonist (Emax = 55%) of the androgen receptor (IC50 = 30 nM) and inhibitor of 5α-reductase types I and II (IC50 = 2 and 3 nM, respectively).[1][2] TFM-4AS-1 shows tissue-selective androgenic effects; it promotes the accumulation of bone and muscle mass and has reduced effects in reproductive tissues and sebaceous glands.[2] In an animal study, TFM-4AS-1 stimulated sebaceous gland formation only 31% as much as dihydrotestosterone (DHT) at doses that were as anabolic or more so than DHT.[3][2] In addition, TFM-4AS-1 only weakly promoted growth of the prostate gland and it partially antagonized the actions of DHT in the seminal vesicles and endogenous androgens in the prostate gland.[2] Structurally, TFM-4AS-1 is a 4-azasteroid.[1] A structurally related and more advanced version of TFM-4AS-1, MK-0773, was developed and pursued for potential pharmaceutical use.[3]
