Abstract:
:To improve the pharmacokinetics of a previously reported series of dipeptidyl nitrile cathepsin B inhibitors, the P(2)-P(3) amide group was replaced with an arylamine. Further optimization of this template resulted in highly potent and selective inhibitors with excellent oral availability.
