β-LGND2

β-LGND2, also known as ERβ-selective ligand 2 or as GTx-878, is a synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen and selective ERβ agonist which was under development by GTx for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatitis, and rheumatoid arthritis but was never marketed.[1][2][3][4][5][6] It shows approximately 25-fold selectivity for activation of the ERβ over the ERα (EC50 = 2 nM and 52 nM, respectively).[3] β-LGND2 is an isoquinolinone derivative.[2][5]
