Fulvant (fulvestrant 250 mg injection) is an antiestrogen. It acts as an antagonist of the estrogen receptor (ER) and a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD). It binds to the estrogen receptor. Fulvant makes it more hydrophobic, further making the receptor unstable and misfold. Therefore, it leads normal processes inside the cell to degrade it. Also, it is an agonist of the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER), albeit with relatively low affinity (10–100 nM, relative to 3–6 nM for estradiol).
Fulvant (250 mg/mL) injection is a prescription medicine. It is used in the treatment of Breast Cancer in postmenopausal women.
