RESUMO
This is the case report of primary malignant melanoma (MM) of uterine cervix treated by immune checkpoint inhibitor: the Pembrolizumab. Despite the merge of the novel drugs that has been strikingly improving prognosis of MM, we still struggle treatment of MM of uterine cervix that has aggressive characteristics with unknown etiology. We present our case to contribute its rarity of the disease case report, the primary MM of the uterine cervix that had poor response to pembrolizumab and had OS of 6 months. The treatment ineffectiveness is mainly considered for mucosal MM of low tumor mutation burden and its unusual type of pathology. Accumulation of retrospective studies exclusively on cervical melanoma needs to be proceeded to investigate on characteristics between poor and long survival to establish standardized treatment.
RESUMO
A series of 2-amino-3-cyano-4-alkyl-6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyridine derivatives was synthesized and evaluated as IkappaB kinase beta (IKK-beta) inhibitors. Substitution of an aminoalkyl group for the aromatic group at the 4-position on the core pyridine ring resulted in a marked increase in both kinase enzyme and cellular potencies, and provided potent IKK-beta inhibitors with IC(50) values of below 100 nM.

IkappaB kinase beta (IKK-beta) is a serine-threonine protein kinase critically involved in the activation of the transcription factor Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) in response to various inflammatory stimuli. We have identified a small molecule inhibitor of IKK-beta. Optimization of the lead compound resulted in improvements in both in vitro and in vivo potency, and provided IKK-beta inhibitors exhibiting potent activity in an acute cytokine release model (LPS-induced TNFalpha).
