Novel tricyclic analogues were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as RORγt inverse agonists. Several of these compounds were potent in an IL-17 human whole blood assay and exhibited excellent oral bioavailability in mouse pharmacokinetic studies. This led to the identification of compound , which displayed dose-dependent inhibition of IL-17F production in a mouse IL-2/IL-23 stimulated pharmacodynamic model. In addition, compound was studied in mouse acanthosis and imiquimod-induced models of skin inflammation, where it demonstrated robust efficacy comparable to a positive control. As a result of this excellent overall profile, compound (BMS-986251) was selected as a clinically viable developmental candidate.
设计、合成了新型三环类似物,并将其作为RORγt反向激动剂进行评估。其中几种化合物在IL-17人全血试验中具有强效,并在小鼠药代动力学研究中表现出优异的口服生物利用度。这导致鉴定出化合物,该化合物在小鼠IL-2/IL-23刺激的药效学模型中显示出对IL-17F产生的剂量依赖性抑制作用。此外,在小鼠棘皮症和咪喹莫特诱导的皮肤炎症模型中对化合物进行了研究,结果表明其疗效强劲,与阳性对照相当。由于其整体表现出色,化合物(BMS-986251)被选为具有临床可行性的开发候选药物。
