I'm not sure what you mean by 'new'. In the pharmacotherapy of uterine fibroids, various active substances were used, which ultimately did not find wide application or it was limited to preparation before surgery. In the treatment of uterine fibroids, ulipristal acetate is effective, but currently there are problems with its purchase: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/67829/esmya-w-jaki-sposob-i-gdzie-moge-dostac-lek-esmya To the best of my knowledge, research on azoprisnil is ongoing, which has shown significant effectiveness in reducing fibroids, but the drug is not available for sale and it is not known whether it will be in the future. Some doctors, in order to reduce the symptoms that fibroids can give, prescribe hormones in the form of tablets or intrauterine therapeutic systems. Such a procedure, however, is not necessarily aimed at "combating" the myoma understood as its reduction. In case of doubt about the available therapeutic options in your individual case, it is best to talk to the gynecologist who takes care of you.
