As a result of studies on compounds having a selective inhibitory activity against 17βHSD type 5, the present inventors have confirmed that a 1-[(indol-2-yl)carbonyl]piperidyl}alkanol derivative has a potent selective inhibitory activity against 17βHSD type 5. The invention has been completed based on these findings. The compound of the present invention can be used as an agent for treating and/or an agent for preventing diseases associated with 17βHSD type 5, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer, without accompanying adverse effects due to a decrease in testosterone.
通过对具有选择性抑制17βHSD type 5活性的化合物的研究,本发明人已经确认,一种1-[(indol-2-yl)carbonyl]piperidyl}alkanol衍生物具有对17βHSD type 5的强效选择性抑制活性。本发明基于这些发现已经完成。本发明的化合物可以用作治疗和/或预防与17βHSD type 5相关的疾病的药物,例如良性前列腺增生和前列腺癌,而不伴随着睾酮降低所引起的不良影响。
