« Intramuscular administration of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone caproate produced signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency in Addisonians maintained on cortisol and 9α-fluorocortisol (Melby, 1961) and thereby showed properties similar to progesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone. However, further tests will be required to eludicate its pharmacodynamics properties. Contrastingly, there was no evidence for salt dissipation with the test of a smaller dose of the steroid to normal subjects (Landau et al., 1958). »
« 17α-Hydroxyprogesterone caproate was first marketed commercially in Japan in 1954-1955. »
« Geller has also demonstrated significant decreases in plasma or urine testosterone glucuronide levels following the administration of three other anti-androgens. These include Delalutin [hydroxyprogesterone caproate], chlormadinone acetate, and PH-218. It would appear that decreased androgen production is a property shared by all anti-androgens to date. »

« Since the initial report by Geller and associates28 on the use of hydroxyprogesterone caproate in the treatment of BPH, a variety of progestins have been studied in the medical management of this disease: hydroxyprogesterone caproate, chlormadinone acetate,27 and medrogestone (6-methyl-6-dehydro-17-methylprogesterone).50 These drugs should have a beneficial effect in BPH as they inhibit testicular function by suppressing serum LH and have no intrinsic estrogenic or androgenic activity. »

« [The] minimal activity [of 17(a)-hydroxyprogesterone] is magnified to an unexpected degree by the esterification of this steroid with caproic acid to produce 17(a)-hydroxyprogesterone-17-n-caproate, first reported by Karl Junkmann in 1954.6,7 »
« Junkmann (1954) reported that the acetate, butyrate, and caproate forms had both increased and prolonged activity, [...] »
« Junkmann of Schering, AG., however, was able to show that long chain esters of 17a-hydroxyprogesterones such as the 17a-caproate produced powerful long-acting progestational effect. This compound is marketed in the United States as Delalutin by Squibb, and has been heavily used for the treatment of habitual abortion. »

« Progesterone itself is now almost never used for the management of any imminent threat to pregnancy. For oral therapy, it is in any event unsuitable and for injections, it has now been replaced by the long-acting esters of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone. The caproate (Proluton, Delalutin), a long-acting ester, is available in [...] Progesterone is rarely used therapeutically. It has largely been superseded by a long-acting ester of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, for parenteral therapy. »
« Melby (14) found that when progesterone was administered to patients suffering from the syndrome of idiopathic oedema, they experienced a diuresis, with a high excretion of sodium and water within 24 hours after a single injection of 500 mg of 17-α-hydroxyprogesterone caproate. »

« The preparations used were Proluton Depot (17a-hydroxy-progesterone caproate) and in 3 patients SH 5132 (17a-hydroxy-19-norprogesterone caproate); 100 mg of the latter corresponds to 1000 mg of Proluton Depot. »
« Another synthetic gestogen, 17-hydroxy-19-norprogesterone caproate (Depostat-Schering), 400 mg by i.m. weekly injections suppressed T levels to 25% of pretreatment values (Sander er al., 1978). »

« In the group of new parenteral progestational agents, three substances developed by Karl Junkmann1,2 are the most outstanding and interesting: 17a-hydroxyprogesterone caproate and 17a-hydroxyprogesterone acetate, introduced in 1953, and the most potent of all new parenteral progestational agents, 17-ethynyl-19-nortestosterone enanthate, introduced in 1956. »
