Abstract
A compound pf general formula (I): wherein, for example, X1 and X2 independently represent a hydrogen atom. Ra represents a hydrogen atom or a protecting group for a hydroxyl group. Rb and Rc form an optionally protected —(C═O)— together with the 3-position carbon atom attached to Rb and Rc, and the broken line forms a single bond or double bond together with the solid line, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound or a prodrug thereof.
