Asoprisnil (J867) is an investigational selective progesterone receptor modulator developed by Schering and TAP Pharmaceutical Products, tested for treatment of progesterone sensitive myomata.[1]

In 2005, Phase III trials were discontinued due to endometrial changes in patients. It is uncertain whether asoprisnil will be marketed.[2]
