Popis: |
The discovery of new targets for treatment of malaria advanced with the demonstration that orally administered inhibitors of Plasmodium falciparum cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PfPKG) could clear infection in a murine model. This enthusiasm was tempered by unsatisfactory safety and/or pharmacokinetic issues found with these chemotypes. To address the urgent need for new scaffolds, we recently reported the discovery and optimization of novel, potent isoxazole-based PfPKG inhibitors that lacked any obvious safety warnings. This manuscript presents representative in vitro ADME, hERG characterization and cell-based antiparasitic activity of these PfPKG inhibitors. We also report the discovery and structure-activity relationships of a new series with good potency, low hERG activity and cell-based anti-parasitic activity comparable to a literature standard. |
