Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel class of androgen receptor targeting agents (ARTA) which demonstrate androgenic and anabolic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor. The agents define a new subclass of compounds which are selective androgen receptor modulators (SARM) which are useful for male hormone therapy such as oral testosterone replacement therapy, treating prostate cancer, imaging prostate cancer.
