Frequently asked questions about amcenestrant

What is amcenestrant used for?

Amcenestrant is an investigational small molecule being developed by Sanofi for breast cancer. It has been studied in a Phase 1 clinical trial that included healthy post-menopausal women and involved breast cancer as a condition. It is not yet approved for any indication and remains in clinical development.

What does amcenestrant target?

Amcenestrant targets ESR1, the gene encoding the estrogen receptor alpha. It is a degrader, meaning it works by promoting the breakdown of the estrogen receptor rather than simply blocking it. This mechanism is intended to interfere with estrogen receptor signaling in breast cancer.

Who is developing amcenestrant?

Amcenestrant is being developed by Sanofi, which trades under the ticker SNY. Sanofi is the sponsor of the clinical program for this investigational agent.

What phase is amcenestrant in?

Amcenestrant is in Phase 1 clinical development. The only trial listed is a completed Phase 1 study, and no active trials are currently recorded. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA or any regulatory agency.

What clinical trials is amcenestrant in?

Amcenestrant has been evaluated in a single Phase 1 trial, NCT04940026, titled a study to determine absorption, metabolism, and excretion of [14C]-SAR439859 and to assess absolute oral bioavailability of amcenestrant in healthy post-menopausal women. The trial was completed, enrolled 6 participants, and was conducted in the United Kingdom.

Is amcenestrant the same as SAR439859?

Yes, amcenestrant is also known as SAR439859. The two names refer to the same investigational drug developed by Sanofi. Clinical trial records and scientific literature may use either name interchangeably.
