Product Information
How It Works
Abiraterone Acetate is an androgen biosynthesis inhibitor used in the management of advanced prostate cancer. Certain prostate cancer cells depend on androgen hormones such as testosterone for their growth and survival.
Zolgor works by inhibiting CYP17, an enzyme involved in androgen production. By reducing androgen levels, it decreases hormonal stimulation of prostate cancer cells and helps slow disease progression. It is generally used alongside corticosteroid therapy, such as Prednisone, according to the oncologist's treatment plan.
