N-Desmethyl-4-hydroxytamoxifen

SIM010603 is a structurally novel, oral, multi-targeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. SIM010603 inhibited stem cell factor receptor (Kit), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2), platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β (PDGFR-β), glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor receptor (Rearranged during Transfection; RET), and Fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) with IC(50) values between 5.0 and 68.1 nmol l. SIM010603 inhibited the phosphorylation of PDGFR-β and VEGFR-2. Moreover, SIM010603 inhibited endothelial cell proliferation, endothelial cells chemotaxis, and corneal angiogenesis.

Endoxifen ((E Z)-Endoxifen) 是 Tamoxifen 的关键活性代谢物，能抑制芳香酶的活性，与雌激素受体有较高的亲和力和特异性。它有潜力研究乳腺癌。

Endoxifen, also known as N-desmethyl-4-hydroxytamoxifen, is a chemical that is under development for estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. It is also being evaluated as an antipsychotic for treatment of mania and other psychotic disorders. Endoxifen is a nonsteroidal selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) of the triphenylethylene group. It is an active metabolite of tamoxifen and has been found to be effective in patients that have failed previous hormonal therapies (tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, and fulvestrant). The prodrug tamoxifen is metabolized by the CYP2D6 enzyme to produce afimoxifene (4-hydroxytamoxifen) and endoxifen.
