Aberrant activation of the PI3K pathway has been intensively targeted for cancer therapeutics for decades. In this work, researchers designed and synthesized a novel photocaged PI3K inhibitor 1, which could be readily activated by UV irradiation to release a highly potent PI3K inhibitor 2. 

ADME studies of compounds 1 and 2 were conducted by Medicilon. 

Medicilon's pharmacokinetics department offers the clients a broad spectrum of high quality of services in the areas of in vitro ADME, in vivo pharmacokinetics and bioanalysis services, ranging from small molecules to large molecules, such as protein and antibody.
