CP8754 is an orally active, selective human progesterone receptor (hPR) antagonist that blocks progesterone-mediated signaling pathways. CP8754 competitively inhibits the binding of [3H]-progesterone to hPR. And in vitro, CP8754 inhibits progesterone-dependent exogenous luciferase and endogenous alkaline phosphatase expression; while in vivo, CP8754 inhibits rabbit endometrial transformation. CP8754 does not significantly bind to human glucocorticoid receptors (hGR), estrogen receptors (hER), or rat androgen receptors (rAR). CP8754 can be used in the study of progesterone-related diseases such as breast cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and meningioma, as well as hormone-dependent tumors.
