FCE 28260 is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor drug with antiandrogenic activity, which was developed for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic (or androgenetic) alopecia in the 1990s.[1][2] Its current status is unknown.

In a 1996 study, FCE 28260 inhibited rat and human 5-alpha-reductase with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 15 and 16 nM, respectively, while finasteride had values of 30 and 52 nM.[1]
