As a result of our efforts to discover novel p53:MDM2 protein-protein interaction inhibitors useful for treating cancer, the potent and selective MDM2 inhibitor NVP-CGM097 (1) with an excellent in vivo profile was selected as a clinical candidate and is currently in phase 1 clinical development. This article provides an overview of the discovery of this new clinical p53:MDM2 inhibitor. The following aspects are addressed: mechanism of action, scientific rationale, binding mode, medicinal chemistry, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, and in vivo pharmacology/toxicology in preclinical species.
