The leishmaniases are diseases that affect millions of people across the world, in particular visceral leishmaniasis (VL) which is fatal unless treated. Current standard of care for VL suffers from multiple issues and there is a limited pipeline of new candidate drugs. As such, there is a clear unmet medical need to identify new treatments. This paper describes the optimization of a phenotypic hit against
利什曼病是一种影响全世界数百万人的疾病,特别是内脏利什曼病(VL),如果不治疗的话会致命。目前 VL 的治疗标准存在多种问题,而且新候选药物的研发渠道有限。因此,寻找新的治疗方法显然存在未得到满足的医疗需求。本文描述了针对杜氏利什曼原虫(VL 的主要致病生物)的表型打击的优化。关键的挑战是在保持效力的同时平衡溶解度和代谢稳定性。本文讨论了解决这些缺点和增强疗效的策略,最终发现了 VL 的临床前开发候选药物 GSK3186899/DDD853651 (1)。
