Compound 2f (SARM) is a drug which acts as a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), originally developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical for the treatment of prostate cancer. It is a potent but tissue specific androgen agonist with an EC50 of 4.7nM, producing anabolic effects on muscles and in the central nervous system but with little effect on the prostate gland, and inducing sexual behaviour in animal studies.[1][2][3]
