Abstract

A series of novel 11beta-aryl-4',5'-dihydrospiro[estra-4,9-diene-17beta,4'-oxazole] analogs have been evaluated for their antagonist hormonal properties using the T47D cell-based Alkaline Phosphatase assay and the A549 cell-based functional assay. Some of the compounds showed highly potent, and more selective antiprogestational activity against antiglucocorticoid activity than mifepristone (RU 486).
