  • Patent number: 9624161
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for reducing testosterone levels in a male subject and methods of treating, suppressing, reducing the incidence, reducing the severity, or inhibiting prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and methods of reducing high or increasing PSA levels and/or increasing SHBG levels in a subject suffering from prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The compounds of this invention suppress free or total testosterone levels despite castrate levels secondary to ADT and reduce high or increasing PSA levels. This reduction in testosterone levels may be used to treat prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, CRPC and mCRPC without causing bone loss, decreased bone mineral density, increased risk of bone fractures, increased body fat, hot flashes and/or gynecomastia.
