Expedited structure-based optimization of the initial fragment hit 1 led to the design of (R)-7 (AZD2716) a novel, potent secreted phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) inhibitor with excellent preclinical pharmacokinetic properties across species, clear in vivo efficacy, and minimized safety risk. Based on accumulated profiling data, (R)-7 was selected as a clinical candidate for the treatment of coronary artery disease.

Provided are methods for treatment of pathological conditions causing hemolysis, cerebral edema, acute kidney injury and non-anaphylactic shock, including envenomation, trauma, cerebral malaria and mast-cell diseases using at least one PLA2 inhibitor, alone or in combination with other agents. The unexpected versatility of PLA2 inhibitors, their dosage forms and combinations make them candidates as essential medicines for the developing world.
