Kinase inhibitors: 20 years of success and many new challenges and recent trends in their patents.

The field of PK modulators for biomedical purposes is particularly crowded with contributions, making it rich in valuable information for the development of potential drugs. An emerging frontier is represented by PK activators that aims to complement the use of PK inhibitors with the final intent of finely adjusting any PK-related disruption responsible for triggering any disease.
