Abstract:
:TGF-β type I receptor (also known as activin-like kinase 5 or ALK5) plays a critical role in the progression of fibrotic diseases and tumor invasiveness and metastasis, as well. The development of small inhibitors targeting ALK5 has been validated as a potential therapeutic strategy for fibrotic diseases and cancer. Here, we developed various 4-((1-cyclopropyl-3-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl) oxy) pyridine-2-yl) amino derivatives as ALK5 inhibitors. The optimization led to identification of potent and selective ALK5 inhibitors 12r. The compound 12r exhibited strong inhibitory activity both in vitro and in vivo, and pharmacokinetics study showed an oral bioavailability of 57.6%. Thus, compound 12r may provide as new therapeutic option as ALK5 TGF-βR1 inhibitor.
