Flutamide is a synthetic nonsteroidal antiandrogen agent commonly employed in biomedical research and clinical oncology Its pharmacological activity is mediated through competitive antagonism at the androgen receptor (AR) whereby its active metabolite interacts specifically with AR exhibiting a receptor binding affinity at a K sub i /sub value around 55 nM By interfering with androgen signaling pathways flutamide inhibits AR-mediated transcriptional activity resulting in reduced cellular proliferation particularly in androgen-dependent tissues In research contexts this compound is frequently utilized to investigate AR-mediated cell biology androgen-dependent tumor development and as a pharmacological tool in model systems studying prostate cancer biology and therapeutic resistance mechanisms
