Finrozole is a nonsteroidal competitive aromatase inhibitor that is being evaluated in Phase II trials for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms associated with reduced androgen/estrogen ratio in aging males associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. But this research was discontinued in 2005. In dimethylbenzanthracene-induced rat mammary carcinoma model, Finrozole causes regression of more than 80% of the established tumors. The hormone-dependent mammary tumors are inhibited to a level seen in ovariectomised animals.
