Inhibitors of the Hedgehog signaling pathway have generated a great deal of interest in the oncology area due to the mounting evidence of their potential to provide promising therapeutic options for patients. Herein, we describe the discovery strategy to overcome the issues inherent in lead structure 1 that resulted in the identification of Smoothened inhibitor 1-((2R,4R)-2-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-
Hedgehog 信号通路的抑制剂在肿瘤学领域引起了极大的兴趣,因为越来越多的证据表明它们有潜力为患者提供有希望的治疗选择。在此,我们描述了克服先导结构1中固有问题的发现策略,这些问题导致了 Smoothened 抑制剂 1-((2 R ,4 R )-2-(1 H- benzo[ d ]imidazol-2-yl )-1-methylpiperidin-4-yl)-3-(4-cyanophenyl)urea (PF-04449913, 26 ),已进入人体临床研究。
