Design and synthesis of 1,5- and 2,5-substituted tetrahydrobenzazepinones as novel potent and selective integrin alphaVbeta3 antagonists.

The design and synthesis of novel integrin alpha(V)beta(3) antagonists based on a 1,5- or 2,5-substituted tetrahydrobenzaezpinone core is described. In vitro activity of respective compounds was determined via alpha(V)beta(3) binding assay, and selected derivatives were submitted to further characterization in functional cellular assays. SAR was obtained by modification of the benzazepinone core, variation of the spacer linking guanidine moiety and core, and modification of the guanidine mimetic.

Synthesis of highly potent and selective hetaryl ureas as integrin alpha(V)beta3-receptor antagonists.

Solid-phase synthesis and SAR of integrin alpha(V)beta3-receptor antagonists containing a urea moiety as non-basic guanidine mimetic are described. The most potent compounds exhibited IC(50) values towards alpha(V)beta3 in the nanomolar range and high selectivity versus related integrins like alpha(IIb)beta3. For selected examples efficacy in functional cellular assays is demonstrated.

Synthesis and SAR of N-substituted dibenzazepinone derivatives as novel potent and selective alpha(V)beta(3) antagonists.

Synthesis and SARs of new integrin alpha(V)beta(3) antagonists based on an N-substituted dibenzazepinone scaffold are described. Variation of spacer and guanidine mimetic led to potent compounds exhibiting an IC(50) towards alpha(V)beta(3) in the nanomolar range, high selectivity versus integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) and efficacy in functional cellular assays.
