The inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an enzyme responsible for the inactivation and decrease in acetylcholine in the cholinergic pathway, has been considered an attractive target for small-molecule drug discovery in Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapy. In the present study, a series of TZD derivatives were designed, synthesized, and studied for drug likeness, blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, and adsorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET). Additionally, docking studies of the designed compounds were performed on AChE.

Since the discovery of the first-generation ALK inhibitor, many other tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been demonstrated to be effective in the first line or further lines of treatment in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer with EMLA4-ALK translocation. This review traces the main milestones in the treatment of ALK-positive metastatic patients and the survival outcomes in the first-line and second-line settings with different ALK inhibitors. It presents the two options available for first-line treatment at the present time: sequencing different ALK inhibitors versus using the most potent inhibitor in front-line treatment.

Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare glandular malignancy, commonly originating in salivary glands of the head and neck. Given its protracted growth, ACC is usually diagnosed in advanced stage. Treatment of ACC is limited to surgery and/or adjuvant radiotherapy, which often fails to prevent disease recurrence, and no FDA-approved targeted therapies are currently available.
