Letrozole CAS:112809-51-5 Manufacturer Supplier

Letrozole is part of a new generation of highly selective aromatase inhibitors and is an artificially synthesized benzotriazole derivative. Letrozole inhibits aromatase to lower estrogen levels, thus preventing estrogen from stimulating tumor growth. Its in vivo activity is 150-250 times stronger than that of first generation aromatase inhibitor Amarante. As it is highly selective, it will not impact glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid and thyroid functions; even at high dosages, it will not have any inhibiting effects on adrenal corticosteroid secretion, giving it a high treatment index.

Products Details

Application and Effect

Letrazole can be synthesized in two steps from 4- bromomethyl-benzonitrile with 1,2,4-triazole and is a third generation aromatase inhibitor. It is a highly specific inhibitor of P450arom which prevents the conversion of androstenedione to estrone. The reduction of plasma estrogen was immediate and long lasting. This is accomplished with no inhibition of other steroid biosynthesis making it the most selective aromatase inhibitor tested. Letrazole has remarkable antitumor activity, is well tolerated and has no toxic side effects. It is 10,000 times more potent than aminoglutethimide, in vivo, the first well established aromatase inhibitor.
