N-Desmethyltamoxifen

N-Desmethyltamoxifen (developmental code name ICI-55,548) is a major metabolite of tamoxifen, a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM).[1][2] N-Desmethyltamoxifen is further metabolized into endoxifen (4-hydroxy-N-desmethyltamoxifen), which is thought to be the major active form of tamoxifen in the body.[1][2][3] In one study, N-desmethyltamoxifen had an affinity for the estrogen receptor of 2.4% relative to estradiol.[4] For comparison, tamoxifen, endoxifen, and afimoxifene (4-hydroxytamoxifen) had relative binding affinities of 2.8%, 181%, and 181%, respectively.[4]
