He participated in the Fifth Council of the Lateran and became the pope's vicar general. Pope Leo X made him a cardinal priest in the consistory of July 1517. He participated in both the papal conclave of 1521-22 that elected Pope Adrian VI, and in the papal conclave of 1523 that elected Pope Clement VII. In 1524, he became Bishop of Nocera dei Pagani.
