Title: Corticotropin-releasing hormone analogs
Usefulness: Corticotropin-releasing hormone analogs
Summary: The peptide is useful for treating proliferative disorders (e.g. melanoma) of the skin or other tissue in human (claimed). The peptide is also useful for treating other cancers such as uterine cancer, and other diseases such as inflammatory dermatoses, psoriasis, premalignant lesions e.g. lentigo maligna, actinic keratosis, eczema, alopecia areata, hypertrichosis and keloids.
Novelty: Peptide useful for treating e.g. melanoma, psoriasis, or eczema comprises a member of the corticotropin-releasing hormone superfamily
