Abstract
Anticancer structure-activity relationship studies on aminosteroid (5α-androstane) derivatives have emerged with a promising lead candidate: RM-133 (2β-[1-(quinoline-2-carbonyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-N-piperazine-5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol), which possesses high in vitro and in vivo activities against several cancer cells, and selectivity over normal cells. However, the relatively weak metabolic stability of RM-133 has been a drawback to its progression toward clinical trials. We investigated the replacement of the androstane backbone by a more stable mestranol moiety. The resulting compound, called RM-581 ({4-[17α-ethynyl-17β-hydroxy-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-2-yl]piperazin-1-yl}[(2S)-1-(quinolin-2-ylcarbonyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl]methanone), was synthesized efficiently in only five steps from commercially available estrone. In comparison with RM-133, RM-581 was found to be twice as metabolically stable, retains potent cytotoxic activity in breast cancer MCF-7 cell culture, and fully blocks tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model of breast cancer. Advantageously, the selectivity over normal cells has been increased with this estrane version of RM-133. In fact, RM-581 showed a better selectivity index (15.3 vs. 3.0) for breast cancer MCF-7 cells over normal breast MCF-10A cells, and was found to be nontoxic toward primary human kidney proximal tubule cells at doses reaching 50 μm.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
