Polyestriol phosphate

Not to be confused with Polyestradiol phosphate.

Polyestriol phosphate (PE3P, SEP), sold under the brand names Gynäsan, Klimadurin, and Triodurin, is an estrogen medication which was previously used in menopausal hormone therapy (i.e., to treat menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women) and is no longer available.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

Medical uses

edit

PE3P has been used at a dosage of 40 to 80 mg by intramuscular injection once every 4 to 8 weeks in menopausal hormone therapy.[13][10]

Available forms

edit

PE3P has been available in the form of ampoules containing 50 to 80 mg in 1 or 2 mL aqueous solution.[13][14][15]

Pharmacology

edit

PE3P is similar to polyestradiol phosphate (PEP), and is, likewise, an estrogen ester – specifically, an ester and prodrug of estriol – in the form of a polymer with phosphate linkers.[2][4][5][9] When adjusted for differences in molecular weight, PE3P contains the equivalent of about 80% of the amount of estriol.[16] As such, 40 mg PE3P corresponds to about 32 mg estriol.[16] Doses of PE3P of 10 mg or more have an extended duration of action.[17] A single intramuscular injection of 80 mg PE3P has a duration of about 1 month and of 80 mg about 2 months.[5][14]

The effects of PE3P on the vagina, uterus, pregnancy, prostate gland, coagulation, and fibrinolysis, as well as on mammary and endometrial cancer risk, have been studied.[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][16] The endometrial proliferation dose of PE3P over 14 days in women is 40 to 60 mg by intramuscular injection.[14]

Notes and sources
Notes: All aqueous suspensions are of microcrystalline particle size. Estradiol production during the menstrual cycle is 30–640 µg/d (6.4–8.6 mg total per month or cycle). The vaginal epithelium maturation dosage of estradiol benzoate or estradiol valerate has been reported as 5 to 7 mg/week. An effective ovulation-inhibiting dose of estradiol undecylate is 20–30 mg/month. Sources: See template.

The polymer of estradiol or estriol and phosphoric acid has an excellent depot action when given intramuscularly (polyestriol phosphate or polyestradiol phosphate) (Table 16). Phosphoric acid combines with the estrogen molecule at C3 and C17 to form a macromolecule. The compound is stored in the liver and spleen where the estrogen is steadily released by splitting off of the phosphate portion due to the action of alkaline phosphatase. [...] Conjugated estrogens and polyestriol and estradiol phosphate can also be given intravenously in an aqueous solution. Intravenous administration of ovarian hormones offers no advantages, however, and therefore has no practical significance. [...] The following duarations of action have been obtained with a single administration (WlED, 1954; LAURITZEN, 1968): [...] 50 mg polyestradiol phosphate ~ 1 month; 50 mg polyestriol phosphate ~ 1 month; 80 mg polyestriol phosphate ~ 2 months.
