Abstract: We study new supergravity solutions related to large-$N_c$ $calN=1$ supersymmetric gauge field theories with a large number $N_f$ of massive flavors. We use a recently proposed framework based on configurations with $N_c$ color D5 branes and a distribution of $N_f$ flavor D5 branes, governed by a function $N_{f}S(r)$. Although the system admits many solutions, under plausible physical assumptions the relevant solution is uniquely determined for each value of $xequiv{N}_f/N_c$. In the IR region, the solution smoothly approaches the deformed Maldacena-N'u~nez solution. In the UV region it approaches a linear dilaton solution. For $x<2$ the gauge coupling $$ function computed holographically is negative definite, in the UV approaching the NSVZ $$ function with anomalous dimension $gamm{a}_0=-1/2$ (approaching $-3/(32p{i}^2)(2N_c-N_f)g^3$)), and with $$ in the IR. For $x=2$, $$ has a UV fixed point at strong coupling, suggesting the existence of an IR fixed point at a lower value of the coupling. We argue that the solutions with $x>2$ describe a "Seiberg dual" picture where $N_f-2N_c$ flips sign.
