Synonyms: Compound 185 [WO2018115591A1] [1] | MK-5684 | MK5684 | ODM-208 | ODM208
Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: Opevesostat (ODM-208; MK-5684) is a non-steroidal inhibitor of the cytochrome P450 11A1 (CYP11A1) [2] that catalyses the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone. This is the first rate-liming step in steroid hormone biosynthesis. Opevesostat was developed for antineoplastic activity against hormone-driven tumour cells, in which the inhibitor blocks steroid hormone biosynthesis and disrupts proliferation. An important caveat of this mechanistic apporach is that during treatment the steroids that are essential for life (glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids) must be replaced at physiological doses.
