"GT20029 is a topical gel that works as an androgen receptor degrader. This medication is specifically known as a proteolysis-targeting chimera (“PROTAC”) drug. It’s actually the first topical PROTAC drug to ever go through clinical trials.
In a press release, Kintor’s founder, chairman, and CEO, Dr. Tong Youzhi, said that the “major obstacle of PROTAC drugs is oral absorption due to the large molecular weight. Therefore, we developed a topical AR degrader first based on the PROTAC platform."
"The 0.5% QD group saw an increase of 16.80 hairs/cm², and the 1% BIW group saw an increase of 11.94 hairs/cm², both surpassing placebo results with statistical significance."
QD = Once Daily, BIW = Twice weekly, so it's showing promising results even when only applied biweekly.
The compound passed phase I and II clinical trials in China, and is currently being tested in the US.
The only bad news is it would most likely take several more years before it is officially released to the public (grey market manufacturers will make it at least ), and the company who made it, Kintor Pharmaceuticals, also had a promising antiandrogen called pyrilutamide (KX-826) that failed when it underwent phase III trials in the US
