NCIt definition : A steroidal compound with antiandrogen activity. Abiraterone inhibits the enzymatic
activity of steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase (17alpha-hydrolase/C17,20 lyase complex;
CYP17A1), a member of the cytochrome p450 family that catalyzes the 17alpha-hydroxylation
of steroid intermediates involved in testosterone synthesis. Administration of this
agent may suppress testosterone production by both the testes and the adrenals to
castrate-range levels.;
