ABSTRACT

A number of RORγ inhibitors have been reported over the past decade. There were also several examples advancing to human clinical trials, however, none of them has reached the market yet, suggesting that there could be common obstacles for their future development. As was expected from the general homology of nuclear receptor ligands, insufficient selectivity as well as poor physicochemical properties were identified as potential risks for a RORγ program. Based on such considerations, we conducted a SAR investigation by prioritizing drug-like properties to mitigate such potential drawbacks. After an intensive SAR exploration with strong emphasis on "drug-likeness" indices, an orally available RORγ inhibitor, JTE-151, was finally generated and was advanced to a human clinical trial. The compound was confirmed to possess highly selective profiles along with good metabolic stability, and most beneficially, no serious adverse events (SAE) and good PK profiles were observed in the human clinical trial.

ABSTRACT

Starting from a previously reported RORγ inhibitor (1), successive efforts to improve in vivo potency were continued. Introduction of metabolically beneficial motifs in conjunction with scaffold hopping was examined, resulting in discovery of the second generation RORγ inhibitor composed of a 4-(isoxazol-3-yl)butanoic acid scaffold (24). Compound 24 achieved a 10-fold improvement in in vivo potency in a mouse CD3 challenge model along with significant anti-inflammatory effects in a mouse dermatitis model.

ABSTRACT

We successfully synthesized two enantiomers of bicyclic enones, (7R,7aR)- and (7S,7aS)-9, from the hemiacetal 2a, which we first synthesized from the symmetrical diketone 1a via diastereoselective carbon-oxygen bond formation between one of the carbonyl groups and the chiral alcohol on the C2 side chain in a 2,2-disubstituted 1,3-cycloalkanedione derivative. We also report the total synthesis of natural (+)-lycopladine A [(+)-6] from (7R,7aR)-9 and the formal synthesis of unnatural (-)-lycopladine A [(-)-6] from (7S,7aS)-9.
