Synthesis and biological evaluation of substituted benzoxazoles as inhibitors of mPGES-1: use of a conformation-based hypothesis to facilitate compound design.

Abstract:

:Microsomal prostaglandin E(2) synthase-1 (mPGES-1) is a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of inflammation and pain. In the preceding letter, we detailed the discovery of clinical candidate PF-04693627, a potent mPGES-1 inhibitor possessing a novel benzoxazole structure. While PF-04693627 was undergoing further preclinical profiling, we sought to identify a back-up mPGES-1 inhibitor that differentiated itself from PF-04693627. The design, synthesis, mPGES-1 activity and in vivo PK of a novel set of substituted benzoxazoles are described herein. Also described is a conformation-based hypothesis for mPGES-1 activity based on the preferred conformation of the cyclohexane ring within this class of inhibitors.
