DK‐520 is an acyl derivative of Niclosamide that exhibits a significant increase in both the plasma concentration and bioavailability. Like Niclosamide, DK‐520 effectively inhibits the early stages of RANKL‐induced osteoclastogenesis and may be a promising drug candidate for treatment of osteoclast‐related diseases.
