Article Abstract

An efficient redox-neutral palladium-catalyzed system has been developed to introduce indole and pyrrole units to a wide range of bioactive molecules late-stage aryl C-H activation, providing a robust tool for medicinal chemists to explore structure-activity relationships (SARs). Furthermore, the successful gram-scale reaction and subsequent synthetic investigations demonstrate the potential application of this established method in organic synthesis, materials science, and biochemistry.

Malaria treatments are compromised by drug resistance, creating an urgent need to discover new drugs. We used a phenotypic high-throughput screening (HTS) platform to identify new antimalarials, uncovering three related pyrrole-, indole-, and indoline-based series with a shared α-azacyclic acetamide core. These compounds showed fast-killing activity on asexual blood-stage parasites, were not cytotoxic, and disrupted parasite intracellular pH and Na regulation similarly to cipargamin (KAE609), a clinically advanced inhibitor of the Na pump (ATP4).

Locally advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) presents significant therapeutic challenges, particularly in resource-limited settings with restricted access to new therapies. This report describes a new exploratory multimodal therapeutic approach for a patient with locally advanced clear cell RCC (ccRCC) with adrenal and lymph node metastases. A 45-year-old woman presented with an incidentally discovered 9-cm mass in the left kidney, which was later diagnosed as grade-2 ccRCC with adrenal and lymph node involvement.

Background: The underexplored potential of PD-L1 blockade in advanced renal cell carcinoma highlights an urgent need for novel agents. This trial aimed to compare benmelstobart (a novel PD-L1 inhibitor) plus anlotinib with sunitinib as first-line treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma.

Methods: ETER100 was a multicentre, randomised, open-label, phase 3 trial conducted at 37 medical sites in China.

Azobenzenes (Ph-N[double bond, length as m-dash]N-Ph) are well-known photochromic compounds with widespread applications. Replacing one or both phenyl rings of azobenzenes with heteroarenes leads to a new class of compounds known as azoheteroarenes (Het-N[double bond, length as m-dash]N-Ph/Het). Azoheteroarenes have gained attention as promising alternatives to traditional azobenzenes in the field of photopharmacology due to their ability to undergo photoswitching under visible light.
