Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/pre96/083003.pdf | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethylstilbestrol | http://monographs.iarc.fr/ENG/Monographs/vol100A/mono100A-16.pdf

Diethylstilbestrol is a synthetic non-steroidal estrogen. It is used in the treatment of menopausal and postmenopausal disorders, prostate cancer and in the prevention of miscarriage or premature delivery in pregnant women prone to miscarriage or premature delivery. Diethylstilbestrol is a very potent full agonist of the estrogen receptors. At the cellular level, estrogens increase the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and various proteins in target tissues. Pituitary mass is also increased. Estrogens reduce the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus, leading to a reduction in release of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone from the pituitary. Adverse effects are: breast pain or tenderness, enlargement of breasts, gynecomastia, peripheral edema and others. Estrogens may interfere with the effects of bromocriptine. Dosage adjustment may be needed. Concurrent use with estrogens may alter the metabolism and protein binding of the glucocorticoids, leading to decreased clearance, increased elimination half-life, and increased therapeutic and toxic effects of the glucocorticoids.

Curator's Comment: Fosfestrol was developed in the research laboratories of Asta-Werke and introduced in 1952 for the therapy of metastasizing prostatic carcinoma under the name of Honvan.

In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: There was exposed three prostatic carcinoma cell lines (LNCaP, DU 145, and PC-3), three non-prostatic neoplastic cell lines (KB: epidermoid carcinoma, EJ: Bladder carcinoma, Daudi: Burkitt lymphoma), and one non-transformed embryonic fibroblast line (MRC-5) to diethylstilbestrol (DES), DES monophosphate, and DES diphosphate (DESDP), at levels comparable to those occurring in patients’ sera during DESDP infusions. At concentrations of 1–20 µg/ml the drugs showed marked, dose-dependent cytotoxicity towards all cell lines under study.
