TFM-4AS-1 is: a dual selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) and 5α-reductase inhibitor. 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). 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. 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. 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." Structurally, TFM-4AS-1 is a 4-azasteroid. A structurally related and more advanced version of TFM-4AS-1, MK-0773, was developed and pursued for potential pharmaceutical use.
