LGD-4033 has the most violations in Modern Pentathlon with 2 violations out of 12 total cases (16.7%). Representing a substantial portion of cases.

Globally, LGD-4033 has been detected in 109 cases across all sports, ranking #30 among all prohibited substances.

The average suspension length for LGD-4033 violations is 43.1 months, longer than the global average of 30.1 months.

LGD-4033 is an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) for treatment of conditions such as muscle wasting and osteoporosis, discovered by Ligand Pharmaceuticals and currently under development by Viking Therapeutics. LGD-4033, originally developed for the treatment of muscle wasting conditions such as aging, osteoporosis, muscular dystrophy and cancer, is promoted as a selective non-steroidal anabolic agent. It is claimed to be a substance that induces muscle (and bone) growth without the side effects associated with steroid use. However, information on the safety of LGD-4033 is scarce due to a lack of medium and long-term clinical trials - hence the medium and long-term health impacts are unknown. It should be noted that a number of Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) have associated health-risks, particularly for the heart and liver.
