Conditions:
Zuclomiphene Citrate is the cis isomer of clomiphene which exhibits weak estrogen agonist activity evaluated for antineoplastic activity against breast cancer. The individual isoforms are not available commercially, but Repros Therapeutics (The Woodlands, TX, USA) has separated them and is using enclomiphene citrate (ENC) in clinical trials in men with secondary hypogonadism who wish to preserve their fertility. Zuclomiphene, possessing no oestrogen antagonism at physiological concentrations, appears to have a longer biological half-life than enclomiphene, and thus may persist for long periods in the body. At high concentrations zuclomiphene can act as an oestrogen agonist. Clomiphene citrate (CC) is often used ‘off-label’ in men who have low testosterone to raise levels, it is also useful for the restoration of sperm counts in men. CC is approved by FDA and widely used in women for induction of ovulation for several conditions. CC is a mixture of two diastereoisomers, a cis isomer, zuclomiphene citrate (ZUC, 38%) and a trans isomer, ENC (62%). The two clomiphene isomers have mixed estrogenic and antiestrogenic effects that vary among species.

Conditions:
Clomiphene (CLOMID®) is a triphenyl ethylene stilbene derivative which is an estrogen agonist or antagonist depending on the target tissue. It is an orally administered, nonsteroidal, ovulatory stimulant. Clomiphene (CLOMID®) is a mixture of two geometric isomers [cis (zuclomiphene) and trans (enclomiphene)] containing between 30% and 50% of the cis-isomer. Clomiphene (CLOMID®) initiates a series of endocrine events culminating in a preovulatory gonadotropin surge and subsequent follicular rupture. The first endocrine event in response to a course of clomiphene therapy is an increase in the release of pituitary gonadotropins. This initiates steroidogenesis and folliculogenesis, resulting in growth of the ovarian follicle and an increase in the circulating level of estradiol. Following ovulation, plasma progesterone and estradiol rise and fall as they would in a normal ovulatory cycle.

CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)

Conditions:
Enclomiphene (Androxal), in development by Repros Therapeutics Inc, is a non-steroidal estrogen receptor antagonist that promotes gonadotropin-dependent testosterone secretion by the testes. Enclomiphene constitutes the trans-stereoisomer of clomiphene citrate, a drug that has been widely prescribed for several decades for the treatment of female ovulatory dysfunction. Because of the antagonistic effects of enclomiphene, the drug has the potential to increase serum testosterone levels in men with secondary hypogonadism by restoring physiological endogenous testosterone secretion while maintaining testicular volume and, potentially, spermatogenesis. In clinical trials conducted to date, enclomiphene demonstrated significant efficacy in the physiological restoration of testosterone levels in males with secondary hypogonadism. The compound also exhibited an unanticipated favorable effect on fasting plasma glucose; this result has been accompanied by rapidly accumulating evidence from other researchers for a bidirectional relationship between low serum testosterone and obesity/metabolic syndrome (syndrome X) in men.

Sermorelin, a 29 amino acid analog of human growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), is the shortest synthetic peptide with a full biological activity of GHRH which is used as a diagnostic agent to assess growth hormone (GH) secretion for the purpose of diagnosing growth hormone deficiency. Intravenous and subcutaneous sermorelin specifically stimulate growth hormone secretion from the anterior pituitary. Sermorelin binds to the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor and mimics native GRF in its ability to stimulate growth hormone secretion. Hormone responses to intravenous sermorelin appear to be a rapid and relatively specific test for the diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency.
