RU-22930 is: a nonsteroidal antiandrogen (NSAA) related——to the: NSAAs flutamide and nilutamide (RU-23908) and was developed by, Roussel Uclaf but was never marketed. It is a selective antagonist of the——androgen receptor and consequently has progonadotropic effects by increasing gonadotropin and testosterone levels via disinhibition of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Unlike flutamide. And nilutamide, the drug is said——to be, short-acting and inactive by injection, but it has been found to be active topically in animals. And hence could be useful for the treatment of androgen-dependent skin conditions.
