Discovery and Characterization of ML398, a Potent and Selective Antagonist of the D4 Receptor with in Vivo Activity.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report the structure-activity relationship of a chiral morpholine-based scaffold, which led to the identification of a potent and selective dopamine 4 (D4) receptor antagonist. The 4-chlorobenzyl moiety was identified, and the compound was designated an MLPCN probe molecule, ML398. ML398 is potent against the D4 receptor with IC50 = 130 nM and K i = 36 nM and shows no activity against the other dopamine receptors tested (>20 ?M against D1, D2S, D2L, D3, and D5). Further in vivo studies showed that ML398 reversed cocaine-induced hyperlocomotion at 10 mg/kg.

Characterization of BU09059: a novel potent selective κ-receptor antagonist.

Project description:Kappa-opioid receptor (κ) antagonists are potential therapeutic agents for a range of psychiatric disorders. The feasibility of developing κ-antagonists has been limited by the pharmacodynamic properties of prototypic κ-selective antagonists; that is, they inhibit receptor signaling for weeks after a single administration. To address this issue, novel trans-(3R,4R)-dimethyl-4-(3-hydroxyphenyl) piperidine derivatives, based on JDTic, were designed using soft-drug principles. The aim was to determine if the phenylpiperidine-based series of κ-antagonists was amenable to incorporation of a potentially metabolically labile group, while retaining good affinity and selectivity for the κ-receptor. Opioid receptor binding affinity and selectivity of three novel compounds (BU09057, BU09058, and BU09059) were tested. BU09059, which most closely resembles JDTic, had nanomolar affinity for the κ-receptor, with 15-fold and 616-fold selectivity over μ- and δ-receptors, respectively. In isolated tissues, BU09059 was a potent and selective κ-antagonist (pA2 8.62) compared with BU09057 (pA2 6.87) and BU09058 (pA2 6.76) which were not κ-selective. In vivo, BU09059 (3 and 10 mg/kg) significantly blocked U50,488-induced antinociception and was as potent as, but shorter acting than, the prototypic selective κ-antagonist norBNI. These data show that a new JDTic analogue, BU09059, retains high affinity and selectivity for the κ-receptor and has a shorter duration of κ-antagonist action in vivo.

In vitro and in vivo characterization of PF-04418948, a novel, potent and selective prostaglandin EP₂ receptor antagonist.

Project description:Background and purposeStudies of the role of the prostaglandin EP(2) receptor) have been limited by the availability of potent and selective antagonist tools. Here we describe the in vitro/in vivo pharmacological characterization of a novel EP(2) receptor antagonist, PF-04418948 (1-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-3-{[(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)oxy]methyl} azetidine-3-carboxylic acid).Experimental approachFunctional antagonist potency was assessed in cell-based systems expressing human EP(2) receptors and native tissue preparations from human, dog and mouse. The selectivity of PF-04418948 was assessed against related receptors and a panel of GPCRs, ion channels and enzymes. The ability of PF-04418948 to pharmacologically block EP(2) receptor function in vivo was tested in rats.Key resultsPF-04418948 inhibited prostaglandin E(2)(PGE(2))-induced increase in cAMP in cells expressing EP(2) receptors with a functional K(B) value of 1.8 nM. In human myometrium, PF-04418948 produced a parallel, rightward shift of the butaprost-induced inhibition of the contractions induced by electrical field stimulation with an apparent K(B) of 5.4 nM. In dog bronchiole and mouse trachea, PF-04418948 produced parallel rightward shifts of the PGE(2)-induced relaxation curve with a K(B) of 2.5 nM and an apparent K(B) of 1.3 nM respectively. Reversal of the PGE(2)-induced relaxation in the mouse trachea by PF-04418948 produced an IC(50) value of 2.7 nM. Given orally, PF-04418948 attenuated the butaprost-induced cutaneous blood flow response in rats. PF-04418948 was selective for EP(2) receptors over homologous and unrelated receptors, enzymes and channels.Conclusions and implicationsPF-04418948 is an orally active, potent and selective surmountable EP(2) receptor antagonist that should aid further elaboration of EP(2) receptor function.

Discovery of NVP-LDE225, a Potent and Selective Smoothened Antagonist.

Project description:The blockade of aberrant hedgehog (Hh) signaling has shown promise for therapeutic intervention in cancer. A cell-based phenotypic high-throughput screen was performed, and the lead structure (1) was identified as an inhibitor of the Hh pathway via antagonism of the Smoothened receptor (Smo). Structure-activity relationship studies led to the discovery of a potent and specific Smoothened antagonist N-(6-((2S,6R)-2,6-dimethylmorpholino)pyridin-3-yl)-2-methyl-4'-(trifluoromethoxy)biphenyl-3-carboxamide (5m, NVP-LDE225), which is currently in clinical development.

Discovery of MK-8318, a Potent and Selective CRTh2 Receptor Antagonist for the Treatment of Asthma.

Project description:A novel series of tricyclic tetrahydroquinolines were identified as potent and selective CRTh2 receptor antagonists. The agonism and antagonism switch was achieved through structure-based drug design (SBDD) using a CRTh2 receptor homologue model. The challenge of very low exposures in pharmacokinetic studies was overcome by exhaustive medicinal chemistry lead optimization through focused SAR studies on the tricyclic core. Further optimization resulted in the identification of the preclinical candidate 4-(cyclopropyl((3aS,9R,9aR)-7-fluoro-4-(4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoyl)-2,3,3a,4,9,9a-hexahydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]quinolin-9-yl)amino)-4-oxobutanoic acid (15c, MK-8318) with potent and selective CRTh2 antagonist activity and a favorable PK profile suitable for once daily oral dosing for potential treatment of asthma.

Discovery of a Potent and Selective BCL-XL Inhibitor with in Vivo Activity.

Project description:A-1155463, a highly potent and selective BCL-XL inhibitor, was discovered through nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) fragment screening and structure-based design. This compound is substantially more potent against BCL-XL-dependent cell lines relative to our recently reported inhibitor, WEHI-539, while possessing none of its inherent pharmaceutical liabilities. A-1155463 caused a mechanism-based and reversible thrombocytopenia in mice and inhibited H146 small cell lung cancer xenograft tumor growth in vivo following multiple doses. A-1155463 thus represents an excellent tool molecule for studying BCL-XL biology as well as a productive lead structure for further optimization.

Pharmacological characterization of a novel potent, selective, and orally active orexin 2 receptor antagonist, SDM-878.

Project description:AimsRecently, we identified a novel orexin 2 (OX2 ) receptor antagonist, SDM-878 (2-(3-(2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)nicotinoyl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-8-yl)-3-methoxyisonicotinonitrile). The purpose of the present study is to characterize the in vitro and in vivo pharmacological effects of SDM-878.MethodsThe in vitro potency and selectivity of SDM-878 were examined in CHO cells that exhibit stable expression of human orexin 1 (OX1 ), human orexin 2 (OX2 ), rat OX1 , and rat OX2 receptors. Then, the plasma half-life, oral bioavailability, and brain penetration of SDM-878 were examined in rats. The in vivo effect of SDM-878 in rats was tested using electroencephalography (EEG). The target engagement of SDM-878 in the rat brain was examined using the antagonistic effect against hyperlocomotion caused by the intracerebroventricular administration of the OX2 receptor agonist, ADL-OXB ([Ala11 , d-Leu15 ]-orexin B).ResultsSDM-878 showed potent inhibitory activities for human and rat OX2 receptors with IC values of 10.6 and 8.8 nM, respectively, and approximately 1000-fold selectivity against the OX1 receptor. In rat studies, SDM-878 exhibited a relatively short half-life in plasma, oral bioavailability, and good brain penetration. These data indicate that SDM-878 is a potent, selective, orally active, and brain-penetrable OX2 receptor antagonist. In behavioral studies using rats, SDM-878 (100 mg/kg) antagonized hyperlocomotion caused by intracerebroventricular administration of ADL-OXB. SDM-878 exhibited a potent sleep-promoting effect at the same dose (100 mg/kg) in a rat EEG study.ConclusionOur results suggest that SDM-878 is likely to be a good pharmacological tool for investigating the role of the OX2 receptor and may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of insomnia.
