The discovery of (R)-2-(sec-butylamino)-N-(2-methyl-5-(methylcarbamoyl)phenyl) thiazole-5-carboxamide (BMS-640994)—A potent and efficacious p38α MAP kinase inhibitor
摘要:
A novel structural class of p38 alpha MAP kinase inhibitors has been identified via iterative SAR studies of a focused deck screen hit. Optimization of the lead series generated 6e, BMS-640994, a potent and selective p38 alpha inhibitor that is orally efficacious in rodent models of acute and chronic inflammation.
