Fevipiprant. Selective prostaglandin DP2 (CRTh2) inhibitor, Treatment of asthma
摘要:
Prostaglandin D-2 (PGD(2)), a major prostanoid, releases from activated mast cells. It activates and recruits various inflammatory cells like eosinophils and basophils through DP2 receptors to the site of inflammation and further promotes late-phase allergic reactions. For the last decade, the scientific community has extensively explored this pathway and synthesized various specific DP2 receptor antagonists for the management of asthma. About 20 compounds with DP2 antagonistic activity have reached different stages of clinical development. Among these, fevipiprant is one of the most advanced oral DP2 inhibitors as it selectively blocks the DP2 receptors. Fevipiprant has demonstrated an acceptable safety profile in phase II studies as evident from significant reduction of moderate to severe asthma exacerbations. Currently this novel antiasthmatic drug is in phase III clinical trials. This review provides a brief overview of PGD(2) blockers, particularly fevipiprant and its preclinical pharmacology and clinical development, by providing a summary of completed or ongoing clinical studies assessing its safety and efficacy in asthma.

novel and concise synthesis of the DP2 receptor antagonist Fevipiprant (NVP-QAW039) was developed. The key step – a JohnsonClaisen reaction followed by an intramolecular hydroamination of the formed reactive allene moiety allowed to build the 7-aza-indole framework, while overcoming the low selectivity and low yield of the initial research route, and give access to a commercially viable process with a
