NCIt definition : The acetate salt of a synthetic steroidal antiandrogen with weak progestational and
antineoplastic activities. Cyproterone binds the androgen receptor (AR), thereby preventing
androgen-induced receptor activation in target tissues and inhibiting the growth of
testosterone-sensitive tumor cells. This agent also exerts progestational agonist
properties at the level of the pituitary that reduce luteinizing hormone (LH), resulting
in reductions in testicular androgen secretion and serum testosterone levels. Treatment
with cyproterone alone results in incomplete suppression of serum testosterone levels.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A synthetic hormone being studied for treatment of hot flashes in men with
prostate cancer who have had both testicles removed by surgery.;
