were studied as potential falcipaininhibitors and therefore potential antiparasitic lead compounds, with the 5-substituted-2-cyanopyrimidine chemical class emerging as the most potent and promising leadseries. Through a sequential leadoptimization process considering the different positions present in the initial scaffold, nanomolar and subnanomolar inhibitors at falcipains 2 and 3 were identified
