摘要:
An anti-inflammatory 1,2,4-phenylenetriamine-containing series of FMS inhibitors with a potential to form reactive metabolites was transformed into a series with equivalent potency by incorporation of carbon-based replacement groups. Structure-based modeling provided the framework to efficiently effect this transformation and restore potencies to previous levels. This optimization removed a risk factor for potential idiosyncratic drug reactions. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
