Optimization of the 1,2-dihydroquinoline A-ring of a nonsteroidal human progesterone receptor (hPR) agonist pharmacophore (1) was performed by using the cotransfection and receptor binding assays as guides. The 3-keto group was discovered to regain the potent agonist activity which was lost upon removal of the 3,4-olefin, and it led to a novel hPR agonist series, 5-aryl- 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrochromeno[3,4-f]quinolin-3-ones. The new progestins demonstrated potent hPR agonist activity in the cotransfection assay and high binding affinity similar to progesterone. T47D human breast cancer cell line was employed for further characterization of the new progestins and a number of reference analogues. It was found that the new 3-keto analogues showed full agonist activity in the T47D assay, while the reference compounds from other related nonsteroidal hPR agonist series exhibited only partial agonist activity.
Tricyclic steroid receptor modulator compounds and methods

, (2008/06/13)
Non-steroidal compounds which are high affinity, high selectivity modulators for steroid receptors are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions incorporating such compounds, methods for employing the disclosed compounds and compositions for treating patients requiring steroid receptor agonist or antagonist therapy, intermediates useful in the preparation of the compounds and processes for the preparation of the steroid receptor modulator compounds.
