Clascoterone has rapidly become a molecule of interest in dermatology, particularly for its ability to target androgen-driven skin conditions without systemic hormonal effects. As the first topical androgen receptor inhibitor approved for acne, it has opened new formulation avenues for brands looking to address sebum regulation and inflammatory pathways locally. The ingredient is now commonly evaluated in creams, gels, and serums aimed at hormonal acne and androgenetic alopecia.

Chemically, Clascoterone is a synthetic steroid derivative—specifically the 17α-propionate ester of cortexolone (11-deoxycortisol). This structural modification enhances its lipophilicity and skin penetration while minimizing systemic absorption. It is manufactured through multi-step steroid synthesis, yielding a highly pure crystalline solid that meets pharmacopeial standards.

LyvBio supplies Clascoterone at ≥99% purity by HPLC, a grade suitable for topical formulation development and clinical research. The product is characterized by a single predominant peak in HPLC analysis, ensuring consistent biological activity and formulation stability.

Descripción general y composición del producto

Clascoterone is a white to off-white crystalline powder, practically insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide. Its molecular formula is C24H34O5, with a molecular weight of 402.52 g/mol. The compound is stable under recommended storage conditions and is typically micronized to a fine particle size to facilitate dispersion in topical bases.
