Onapristone(INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name) (developmental code namesZK-89299,ZK-299) is asyntheticandsteroidalantiprogestogenwith additionalantiglucocorticoidactivity which was developed bySchering[1]and described in 1984 but was never marketed.[2][3]It is asilent antagonistof theprogesterone receptor(PR), in contrast to the related antiprogestogenmifepristone(which is a weakpartial agonistof thereceptor).[4]Moreover, compared to mifepristone, onapristone has reduced antiglucocorticoid activity, shows littleantiandrogenicactivity, and has 10- to 30-fold greaterpotencyas an antiprogestogen.[4]The medication was under development for clinical use, for instance in the treatment ofbreast cancerand as anendometrialcontraceptive,but was discontinued duringphase IIIclinical trialsin 1995 due to findings thatliverfunction abnormalities developed in a majority patients.[5][6][7]

Onapristone has been found to be effective in the treatment ofbreast cancer.[8][5][9]

As of 2016, onapristone has re-emerged and is under development for the treatment ofprostate cancer,currently inphase IIclinical trials.[10]It was also under development for the treatment ofendometrial cancer,breast cancer,ovarian cancer,anduterine cancer,but was discontinued for these indications in favor of focusing on prostate cancer.[10]
