Isosteric replacements for benzothiazoles and optimisation to potent Cathepsin K inhibitors free from hERG channel inhibition
2012
Abstract The discovery of nitrile compound 4 , a potent inhibitor of Cathepsin K (Cat K) with good bioavailability in dog is described. The compound was used to demonstrate target engagement and inhibition of Cat K in an in vivo dog PD model. The margin to hERG ion channel inhibition was deemed too low for a clinical candidate and an optimisation program to find isosteres or substitutions on benzothiazole group led to the discovery of 20 , 24 and 27 ; all three free from hERG inhibition.
