Cyanonilutamide (developmental code name RU-56279) is a nonsteroidal antiandrogen which was never marketed.[1][2] Both RU-56187 and RU-58841 appear to be prodrugs of cyanonilutamide in vivo in animals.[2] It has relatively low affinity for the androgen receptor but nonetheless shows significant antiandrogenic activity in animals.[2]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
