Labelled Toremifene. An antiestrogen and antineoplastic. Nonsteroidal antiestrogen structurally similar to Tamoxifen.

Biological Activity

Toremifene-d6 (Z-Toremifene-d6) citrate is the deuterium labeled Toremifene citrate. Toremifene citrate (Z-Toremifene citrate) is a second-generation selective estrogen-receptor modulator (SERM) in development for the prevention of osteoporosis. Toremifene citrate also potent inhibits infectious EBOV Zaire and Marburg (MARV) with IC50 of 0.07 μM and 2.6 μM, respectively[1][2]. Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1].
