May 2026 in “Journal of Medicinal Chemistry” This study introduces dAR-6–1, a novel PROTAC designed for the transdermal treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA), featuring a pyridazinyl glutarimide moiety for enhanced CRBN binding. The compound demonstrates potent androgen receptor (AR) degradation with a DC50 of 0.90 nM and Dmax of 91% in LNCaP cells, and a DC50 of 0.23 nM and Dmax of 90% in hDPC cells, alongside exceptional solubility (>500 mg·mL–1). Both in vitro and in vivo studies, including an AGA mouse model, confirmed its superior skin permeability and hair regeneration efficacy compared to minoxidil. These findings highlight dAR-6–1 as a promising candidate for AGA treatment and offer a strategic framework for developing transdermal PROTACs.
