The Zentalis Wee1 inhibitor, ZN-c3 , is a highly selective kinase inhibitor that is currently being evaluated in Ph. II clinical trials in adult women with recurrent or persistent uterine serous carcinoma (USC). The starting pyrazolopyrimidinone series was from the WO2013126656 patent, and while the molecule is similar to other kinase [...]

October’s molecule, the Bayer hGnRH-R antagonist BAY 1214784 , is intended as an oral, once-daily treatment for uterine fibroids, a highly common problem in adult women that can lead to infertility.

sAC as a target for male contraception. Soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) is one of several ACs that catalyze the cyclization of ATP to form cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). cAMP is the second messenger in several signaling pathways including that which activates sperm to be capable of fertilizing eggs (“ capacitation ”). The target is [...]
