Degarelix – (214766-78-6)

Degarelix is a hor used in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer. It is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist that works by binding to GnRH receptors in the pituitary gland, blocking the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This action leads to a rapid and sustained reduction in testosterone levels, which is crucial for slowing the growth of hormone-sensitive prostate tumors. Degarelix is administered via subcutaneous injection and is known for its immediate onset of action without causing the initial testosterone surge associated with GnRH agonists. Common side effects include injection site reactions, hot flashes, and weight gain. It was approved by the FDA in December 2008 and by the European Medicines Agency in February 2009.
