Definitions

  • This invention relates to indole derivatives which have steroid Sce-reductase inhibitory activity.
  • this invention relates to indoles, their preparation and their use as testosterone-5 ⁇ - reductase inhibitors.
  • the androgen class of steroidal hormones which includes testosterone, is responsible for the difference in the physical characteristics of males and females. Of all the organs that produce androgens, the testes produce these hormones in the greatest amounts. Over-production of these, hormones in the body results in many undesirable physical manifestations and disease states, e.g. acne vulgaris, alopecia, seborrhoea, female hirsutism, benign prostatic hypertrophy and male pattern baldness.
  • the principal androgen secreted by the testes is testosterone and it is the primary androgen present in male plasma.
  • the principal mediator of androgenic activity in certain organs such as the prostate and sebaceous gland are the 5 ⁇ -reduced androgens.
  • Testosterone is therefore the prohormone of 5 ⁇ - dihydrotestosterone which is formed locally in the above organs by the action of testosterone-5 ⁇ -reductase.
