SS5020 is a a new benzopyran antiestrogen. Unlike tamoxifen (TAM), SS5020 exhibits no genotoxic activity to damage DNA. Furthermore, SS5020 does not present significant uterotrophic potential in rats; in contrast, the structurally related compounds, TAM, toremifene, raloxifene (RAL) and SP500263 all have uterotrophic activity. At the human equivalent molar dose of TAM (0.33 or 1.0 mg/kg), SS5020 had much stronger antitumor potential than those same antiestrogens against 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-induced mammary carcinoma in rats.
