Popis: The discovery, structure-activity relationships, and optimization of a novel class of fatty acid synthase (FASN) inhibitors is reported. High throughput screening identified a series of substituted piperazines with structural features that enable interactions with many of the potency-driving regions of the FASN KR domain binding site. Derived from this series was FT113, a compound with potent biochemical and cellular activity, which translated into excellent activity in in vivo models.
