Inhibition of the bacteriallectinLecA is an alternative option to treat infections with the ESKAPE pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Optimization of divalentLecAligands yielded ligands with good drug-like properties and high potency. Compound evaluation in functional cellular assays showed their ability to inhibit LecA-mediated virulence, demonstrating their suitability as pathoblockers.

The present invention relates to divalent compounds binding to LecA. The compounds are useful to block biofilm formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and to therapeutic methods and uses of these compounds, in particular to therapeutic methods and uses for the treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in a subject. The invention also relates to imaging of infections, such as biofilms produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, by using these divalent compounds.
