Relugolix (TAK-385) is an orally active nonpeptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) that binds to human GnRH receptors with subnanomolar affinity. Relugolix was demonstrated to act as a classic competitive antagonist of GnRH binding, but the exact molecular mechanism of that antagonism remains unknown. This drug is being developed as a treatment for various sex hormone related disorders. Based on the phase III HERO trial results, relugolix (Orgovyx) received Food and Drug Administration approval for adult patients with advanced prostate cancer. An oral fixed-dose combination of relugolix/estradiol/norethisterone (also known as norethindrone) acetate (Ryeqo®; Myfembree®) has been approved for the management of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in the USA and management of moderate to severe symptoms of uterine fibroids in the EU.

Sample Use Guides
Prostate cancer: recommended dosage: a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day of treatment followed by 120 mg taken orally once daily, at approximately the same time each day
Route of Administration:
Oral
In vitro, in the absence of serum (FBS), TAK-385 bound to human, monkey and rat GnRH receptors with IC50 values of 0.12, 0.15 and 2900 nM, respectively (Study# TAK-385- 00090). Binding affinities decreased by 3-fold in the presence of 40% FBS for all GnRH receptors; nevertheless, TAK-385 bound to the human GnRH receptor with an IC50 value of 0.33 nM
