NCIt definition : An orally bioavailable, acetate salt of ulipristal, a selective progesterone receptor
modulator with anti-progesterone activity. Ulipristal binds to the progesterone receptor
(PR), thereby inhibiting PR-mediated gene expression, and interfering with progesterone
activity in the reproductive system. As a result, this agent may suppress the growth
of uterine leiomyomatosis. Furthermore, by inhibiting or delaying ovulation and effecting
endometrial tissue, ulipristal can be used as an emergency contraception;
