Overview

Oral non-peptide GnRH antagonist approved for endometriosis with associated pain. Unlike relugolix, dose-dependent partial suppression is possible: 150 mg once daily produces partial suppression (reduces estradiol to ~40-60 pg/mL), while 200 mg twice daily produces near-complete suppression. This dose-dependent effect is clinically useful for tailoring treatment.

Mechanism of Action

Non-peptide oral GnRH receptor antagonist. Competitive binding at pituitary GnRH receptors. Dose-dependent suppression of estradiol and progesterone.
