Retinoid-like compounds which act as agonists of the RXR retinoid receptor sites induce apoptosis of tumor cells in cell cultures, and are used as drugs to treat tumors in mammals including humans. Compounds which are specific agonists of RXR receptors and also compounds which are agonists of both RAR and RXR agonist (pan-agonists) induce apoptosis, although the RXR agonist compounds are preferred as drugs to avoid undesirable side effects associated with RAR agonist activity. The RXR agonists compounds are administered to mammals afflicted with tumors in pharmaceutical compositions adapted for systemic topical or for intralesional administration. The range of concentration of the active ingredient RXR agonist compound in the pharmaceutical compositions is approximately between 0.001 and 5 percent by weight, and such that the composition delivers approximately 0.1 mg to 100 mg of the active ingredient per kg body weight of the patient, per day of treatment.

Compounds that provide non-teratogenic effects and lack irritation to the skin are shown in the formula below where the partially drawn ring signifies an aromatic ring which may be carbocyclic or heteroaromatic, 6-membered or 5-membered, and may be condensed with another ring. R.sub.1 is lower alkyl, Cl, Br, or I, R.sub.2 is H, lower alkyl, Cl, Br, or I, and R.sub.3 is lower alkyl, Cl, Br, I, or is an ether, thioether, ester, thioester, amine or substituted amine group. ##STR1##

Process of treatment of mammals, including humans to treat diseases or conditions of the type which are normally treated with retinoid-like compounds is disclosed, with pharmaceutical compositions containing an active compound which is a selective agonist of the RXR retinoid receptor sites in preference to the RAR retinoid receptor sites. A compound is defined to be a selective agonist of the RXR receptor site if the compound is at least approximately ten times more effective as an agonist in the RXR receptor sites than in the RAR receptor sites.

A process and pharmaceutical compositions for treating several diseases and conditions which are normally treatable with retinoid like compounds are disclosed where the compound used for the treatment are substantially non-teratogenic and not irritant to the skin. The process is useful for treating female mammals, including humans, who are pregnant or in the child bearing age. An important partial structural feature of the compounds which provides the non-teratogenic effect and lack of irritation of skin is shown by the formula where the partially drawn ring signifies an aromatic ring which may be carbocyclic or heteroaromatic, 6-membered or 5-membered, and may be condensed with another ring. R1 is lower alkyl, Cl, Br, or I, R2 is H, lower alkyl, Cl, Br, or I, and R3 is lower alkyl, Cl, Br, I, or is an ether, thioether, ester, thioester, amine or substituted amine group.
