ABSTRACT:
Thiol-substituted synthetic steriod hormones or androgens having a testosterone ring system backbone are used to inhibit aromatase's catalyzed conversion of C.sub.19 androgens having a A.sup.4,3-ketone group to estrogens in the treatment of estrogen-dependent tumors, such as metastatic breast cancer in postmenopausal females.
The compounds have the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 =a thiol, such as --SH or --CH.sub.2 SH, and R.sub.2 =OH or =O. The preferred synthetic hormones are 17.beta.-hydroxy-10.beta.-mercaptoestr-4-en-3-one, 19-mercaptoandrost-4-en-3,17-dione, and 10.beta.-mercaptoandrost-4-en-3,17-dione.
