Potent, selective and orally bioavailable leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) inhibitors.
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters(2016)
摘要
Familial Parkinson’s disease cases have recently been associated with the leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene. It has been hypothesized that inhibition of the LRRK2 protein may have the potential to alter disease pathogenesis. A dihydrobenzothiophene series of potent, selective, orally bioavailable LRRK2 inhibitors were identified from a high-throughput screen of the internal Merck sample collection. Initial SAR studies around the core established the series as a tractable small molecule lead series of LRRK2 inhibitors for potential treatment of Parkinson’s disease. It was also found that incorporation of a lactam into the core drastically improved the CNS and DMPK properties of these small molecules.
