Notes

Added at stage 21 from therapy-discovered.xlsx (bulk PubMed search by isotope/therapy-type/known-agent, not individually researched yet) -- 2 articles found. Target/mechanism, clinical application, indications, approval and precursor fields still need per-agent research and are intentionally left empty. Compound class inferred from precursor name (not stated outright) -- PMID 40283887: 'TacsBOMB5, LW01110, LW01142, and AMBA were synthesized following published procedures'.
