Inclusion Criteria:

1. Histologic diagnosis of advanced/recurrent endometrioid adenocarcinoma or low grade
endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) not amenable to curative surgery or radiotherapy.

2. Patients should have previously undergone radical surgery (minimum of total abdominal
hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoophorectomy) definitive radiation therapy, or not
be candidates for such procedures.

3. The primary (including archived specimens) or recurrent tumor must be PR positive.
Hormone receptor positivity is defined as PR positivity in >/+10% cells by
immunohistochemistry.

4. Prior radiotherapy must have been completed at least 2 weeks prior to the initiation
of Mifepristone and patients must have recovered from the acute side effects of such
treatment.

5. Performance status < Zubrod 2.

6. Estimated life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.

7. Prior chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic endometrial cancer is permitted.

8. Patients must have measurable disease as defined by the presence of bidimensionally
measurable lesions with clearly defined margins on x-ray, scan (CT or MRI) or
physical exam.

9. Adequate bone marrow reserve: granulocyte count > 1.5 x 109/L, hemoglobin > 9 g/dL
(transfusion-independent) and platelets > 100,000 K/UL.

10. Adequate liver and renal function as defined as: total bilirubin value < 1.5 mg/dL;
SGPT < 2x the upper limit of normal or < 5x the upper limit of normal when liver
metastases are present; serum creatinine value of < 1.8 mg/dL. All qualifying
laboratory parameters must be determined within one week of first treatment.

11. Patient compliance and geographic proximity that allows adequate follow-up.

12. Signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with serous or clear cell carcinomas of the endometrium.

2. Patients whose tumor is known to be PR negative.

3. Uncontrolled hypercalcemia.

4. Patients taking phenytoin, phenobarbital or carbamazepine.

5. Known predisposition to thromboembolic disorder, which in the investigator's judgment
would put the patient at unacceptable risk for thromboembolic complications.

6. Patients who have received treatment for brain metastases may be enrolled provided
they have remained stable for at least 6 months after surgery or radiation.

7. Women taking estrogen, progestin or antiprogestins. Patients taking these drugs must
have discontinued their use at least 3 weeks prior to beginning treatment with
Mifepristone.

8. History of other malignancy (except adequately treated non-melanomatous carcinoma of
the skin or cervical carcinoma in situ) unless in complete remission and off all
therapy for that disease for a minimum of 5 years.

9. Use of any chemotherapy or investigational agent within 3 weeks prior to taking study
drug.

10. Concurrent serious infection.

11. Patients with serious intercurrent medical illness.

12. Serious concomitant systemic disorders incompatible with the study (at the discretion
of the investigator).

13. Patients whom absorption of drugs is likely to be impaired due to either concomitant
medications or prior surgery.

14. Overt psychosis or mental disability or otherwise incompetent to give informed
consent.
