The present invention refers to a process for the industrial-scale preparation of 17?-hydroxy-6?,7?; 15?,16?-dimethylene-3-oxo-17?-pregn-4-ene-21-carboxylic acid y-lactone, known by the common name of Drospirenone, in the form of a fine powder without the use of mechanical grinding or micronization techniques. but rather exploiting a double change of crystalline form, from Crystalline Form I to Crystalline Form II and from Crystalline Form II to Crystalline Form I. The invention also refers to the new Crystalline Form II of Drospirenone obtained in the process.

The present disclosure relates to polycyclic (e.g., tetracyclic) androgen receptor (AR) modulators, synthetic methods for preparing such AR modulators, and methods of using such AR modulators to treat an androgen-dependent condition, such as prostate cancer or BPH. Exemplary compounds have quaternary centers at C10 and C13 and a fused cyclic ring comprising C14 and C15.
