Abstract
Inhibitors of sex steroid activity, for example those having the general structure ##STR1## may be used as part of a pharmaceutical composition to provide antiestrogenic effects and/or to suppress estrogen synthesis. Such pharmaceutical compositions are useful for the treatment of breast cancer or other diseases whose progress is aided by activation of sex steroid receptors.
