Development of 2-aminooxazoline 3-azaxanthenes as orally efficacious β-secretase inhibitors for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
2015
Abstract The β-site amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is one of the most hotly pursued targets for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. We used a structure- and property-based drug design approach to identify 2-aminooxazoline 3-azaxanthenes as potent BACE1 inhibitors which significantly reduced CSF and brain Aβ levels in a rat pharmacodynamic model. Compared to the initial lead 2 , compound 28 exhibited reduced potential for QTc prolongation in a non-human primate cardiovascular safety model.
