Efficient construction of 6-azasteroids: dual inhibitors of steroidal 5 alpha-reductase.

abstract：:Inhibition of BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase activity has shown to be essential for the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). However, drug resistance has quickly arisen in recent clinical trials for STI571 (Gleevec), which is the first approved drug of CML by inhibiting ABL tyrosine kinase. It is desirable to dev...
