This invention provides a class of androgen receptor targeting agents (ARTA). The agents define a new subclass of compounds, which are selective androgen receptor modulators (SARM). Several of the SARM compounds have been found to have an unexpected androgenic and anabolic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor. Other SARM compounds have been found to have an unexpected antiandrogenic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor. The SARM compounds, either alone or as a composition, are useful for a) male contraception; b) treatment of a variety of hormone-related conditions, for example conditions associated with Androgen Decline in Aging Male (ADAM), such as fatigue, depression, decreased libido, sexual dysfunction, erectile dysfunction, hypogonadism, osteoporosis, hair loss, anemia, obesity, sarcopenia, osteopenia, osteoporosis, benign prostate hyperplasia, alterations in mood and cognition and prostate cancer; c) treatment of conditions associated with Androgen Decline in Female (ADIF), such as sexual dysfunction, decreased sexual libido, hypogonadism, sarcopenia, osteopenia, osteoporosis, alterations in cognition and mood, depression, anemia, hair loss, obesity, endometriosis, breast cancer, uterine cancer and ovarian cancer; d) treatment and/or prevention of acute and/or chronic muscular wasting conditions; e) preventing and/or treating dry eye conditions; f) oral androgen replacement therapy; and/or g) decreasing the incidence of, halting or causing a regression of prostate cancer.
本发明提供了一类雄激素受体靶向剂(ARTA)。这些剂定义了一类新的化合物亚类,即选择性雄激素受体调节剂(SARM)。其中几种SARM化合物被发现具有非甾体配体的意外雄激素和肌肉增长活性。其他SARM化合物被发现具有非甾体配体的意外抗雄激素活性。这些SARM化合物,无论是单独使用还是作为组合物,都可用于:a)男性避孕;b)治疗各种激素相关疾病,例如与老年男性雄激素下降相关的疾病,如疲劳,抑郁,性欲降低,性功能障碍,勃起功能障碍,睾丸功能减退,骨质疏松症,脱发,贫血,肥胖症,肌肉萎缩症,骨质疏松症,良性前列腺增生,情绪和认知的改变以及前列腺癌;c)治疗与女性雄激素下降相关的疾病,如性功能障碍,性欲降低,睾丸功能减退,肌肉萎缩症,骨质疏松症,认知和情绪的改变,抑郁,贫血,脱发,肥胖症,子宫内膜异位症,乳腺癌,子宫癌和卵巢癌;d)预防和/或治疗急性和/或慢性肌肉消耗疾病;e)预防和/或治疗干眼症;f)口服雄激素替代疗法;和/或g)降低前列腺癌的发病率,阻止或引起其退化。
