Targets0

The targets ChEMBL's mechanism records give for the drug, through Open Targets. A mechanism record says what the drug acts on, not how strongly.

None in this release.

Diseases21

The diseases Open Targets' clinical reports study the drug for, the most trial reports first. The stage is Open Targets', the highest any of its sources reports for the pair, and each row names the sources that report it.
