NON-PEPTIDE GNRH AGENTS, PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THEIR USE

摘要

Non-peptide GnRH agents capable of inhibiting the effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone are described. Such compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, and active metabolites are suitable for treating mammalian reproductive disorders and steroid hormone-dependent tumors as well as for regulating fertility, where suppression o£ gonadotropin release is indicated. Methods for synthesizing the compounds and intermediates useful in their preparation are also described.
