Fulvestrant is a selective estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist. It binds, blocks and degrades estrogen receptor, then inhibits estrogen receptor(ER)-mediated transcriptional activity with an IC50 of 9.4 nM [1-3].
Fulvestrant(3 μM ;1 month) increases the sensitivity of H1975 NSCLC cells to gefitinib[4].Fulvestrant(1-10 µM;72 h) strongly sensitized doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity in MDR cell lines[5].
Fulvestrant(5 mg/mouse; s.c.; twice per week) significantly inhibited macrophage and neutrophil infiltration in mice cancer model. Fulvestrant decreases ER+ breast cancer growth in the presence of physiologic levels of estradiol in human breast cancer in nude mice[6]. Fulvestrant (5mg/mouse; twice weekly; s.c.) in combination with tamoxifen enhanced tumor regression[7].
