Product Information

• Name: N-Demethyl mifepristone
• Synonyms: (11b,17b)-17-Hydroxy-11-[4-(methylamino)phenyl]-17-(1-propyn-1-yl)-estra-4,9-dien-3-oneN-Desmethyl-RU 486RU 42633

• Description: N-Demethyl mifepristone is a synthetic steroidal antiprogestin that is structurally similar to the natural progesterone. It is a prodrug of the anti-progestin, mifepristone, which is responsible for the antiprogestational effects of the drug. N-Demethyl mifepristone has been shown to have significant cytotoxicity in skin cancer cells and to inhibit epidermal growth factor-induced cell proliferation in cervical cancer cells. This drug also has pharmacokinetic properties that are different from those of mifepristone and may be less toxic than its parent compound.
