Can someone please cite a source for the claim that RU 486 (mifepristone) is a selective progesterone receptor modulator? I've never seen it referred to in that manner. It is generally considered an anti-progestin or progesterone receptor antagonist. -- Kiral 00:54, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. RU 486 is not a SPRM (tissue selective mixed agonist/antagonist) but rather a full PR antagonist.Boghog2 21:23, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Discovery and Development of Selective progesterone receptor modulators

The new article touching such vital information as mechanism of action, structure, etc, I think we're doing the topic a disservice by keeping these two unbalanced articles separate. FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 03:42, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
