ABSTRACT
Modification of the P(1)' substituent of macrocyclic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors provided compounds that are selective for inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) over MMP-1 and MMP-2. Several analogues potently inhibited the release of TNF-alpha in a THP-1 cellular assay. Compounds containing a trimethoxyphenyl group in the P(1)' substituent demonstrated TACE selectivity across several series of hydroxamate-based inhibitors.
