The SAR of a series of potent sulfonamide hydroxamate TACE inhibitors bearing novel acetylenic P1' groups was explored. In particular, compound 4t bearing a butynyloxy P1' moiety has excellent in vitro potency against isolated TACE enzyme and in cells, good selectivity over MMP-1 and oral activity in an in vivo model of TNF-alpha production.

The SAR of a series of potent sulfonamide hydroxamate TACE inhibitors, all bearing a butynyloxy P1' group, was explored. In particular, compound 5j has excellent in vitro potency against isolated TACE enzyme and in cells, good selectivity over MMP-1 and MMP-9, and oral activity in an in vivo model of TNF-alpha production and a collagen-induced arthritis model.

The SAR of a series of sterically hindered sulfonamide hydroxamic acids with relatively large P1' groups is described. The compounds typically spare MMP-1 while being potent inhibitors of MMP-13. The metabolically more stable compounds in the series contain either a monocyclic or bicyclic pyran ring adjacent to the hydroxamate group. Despite the sparing of MMP-1, pre-clinical and clinical studies revealed that fibrosis in rats and MSS in humans is still produced.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated in several pathologies. At Abbott Laboratories, the matrix metalloproteinases inhibitor drug discovery program has focused on the discovery of a potent, selective, orally bioavailable MMP inhibitor for the treatment of cancer. The program evolved from early succinate-based inhibitors to utilizing in-house technology such as SAR by NMR to develop a novel class of biaryl hydroxamate MMP inhibitors. The metabolic instability of the biaryl hydroxamates led to the discovery of a new class of N-formylhydroxylamine (retrohydroxamate) biaryl ethers, exemplified by ABT-770 (16). Toxicity issues with this pre-clinical candidate led to the discovery of another novel class of retrohydroxamate MMP inhibitors, the phenoxyphenyl sulfones such as ABT-518 (19j). ABT-518 is a potent, orally bioavailable, selective inhibitor of MMP-2 and 9 over MMP-1 that has been evaluated in Phase I clinical trials in cancer patients.

Seven highly informative accounts of drug discovery and design were delivered by members of an international panel of speakers. The evolution of a new drug treatment for schizophrenia commenced with the observation that chlorpromazine possessed "neuroleptic" activity and progressed through studies with various dopamine and serotonin antagonists to ultimately lead to the discovery of risperidone. The 20-amino-acid peptide bivalirudin was rationally derived from hirudin. The alkoxypolyaryl derivative LY-303366 emerged from a second-generation chemical program with the aim of improving the solubility and pharmacokinetic profile of cilofungin. Antiviral activity in the low nanomolar range, combined with oral bioavailability and a clean safety profile, resulted in the development of saquinavir mesylate as the first HIV proteinase inhibitor to become available as a marketed drug. The marimastat drug design program was based on knowledge of the collagenase cleavage site, and molecules incorporated features to allow them to coordinate with the active site zinc atom and side chains that allowed interaction with the enzyme subsites. Initial lead compounds in the anastrozole development program were azoles incorporated onto nonsteroidal estrogen-like scaffolds. Chance synthesis of a nitrile intermediate needed for the naphthalene analogues and further elaboration eventually led to this potent and selective aromatase inhibitor. Rosiglitazone emerged from an SAR program on ciglitazone in which the lipophilic cyclohexyl group was replaced by aromatic and polar groups.

A series of N-substituted sulfonylamino-alkanecarboxylate ADAMTS-5 (Aggrecanase-2) inhibitors has been synthesized and the in vitro enzyme SAR is discussed. This report is the first example of carboxylate-based ADAMTS-5 inhibitors which show strong potency of IC(50)<0.1muM with excellent selectivity over MMP-1 and TACE.

We disclose further optimization of hydantoin TNF-alpha convertase enzyme (TACE) inhibitors. SAR with respect to the non-prime region of TACE active site was explored. A series of biaryl substituted hydantoin compounds was shown to have sub-nanomolar K(i), good rat PK, and good selectivity versus MMP-1, -2, -3, -7, -9, and -13.

Extracellular matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent neutral endopeptidases involved in physiological and pathological processes, through the cleavage of extracellular matrix. MMPs are capable of degrading essentially all matrix components, which is crucial for malignant tumor growth, invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis. The vertebrates MMP family includes at least 26 enzymes (23 have been known in humans) with only MMP-1, 2, and 7 experimentally validated as targets for antitumoral drug design. However, inhibition of MMP-1 has been hypothesized to be the cause of the clinically observed musculoskeletal syndrome when broad spectrum inhibitors are used. On the other hand, MMP-9 is a tricky enzyme, since its inhibition might be useful in treating patients with early-stage cancers, but MMP-9 is an anti-target in patients with advanced disease. So, MMP-9 inhibition should also be prevented. Therefore, selective MMP-2 inhibition arises as a pursued profile for MMP binders. Among them, hydroxamates have been extensively studied as small molecule drug candidates characterized by an effective zinc-binding group plus additional side chains responsible for the selectivity. This article pays particular attention to MMP-2 selectivity on hydroxamate-type inhibitors, especially against MMP-9, and their chemical structure, SAR, general synthetic methods, and molecular modelling studies are here reviewed in order to inspire further design of new effective anticancer agents.
