A derivative of testosterone and ethisterone that binds androgen receptors and sex hormone-binding globulin causing a 3-fold increase in free testosterone; possesses weak androgenic effects and inhibits the production of gonadotropins.

AFC is a synthetic substrate for the isoprenylated protein methyltransferase (also known as S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferase). Because it is able to serve as a substrate for the methyltransferase, it effectively functions as an inhibitor of methylation of endogenous isoprenylated proteins.
