Structure-activity relationship study of a series of caspase inhibitors containing γ-amino acid moiety for treatment of cholestatic liver disease.

A series of caspase inhibitors containing γ-amino acid moiety have been synthesized. A systemic study on their structure-activity relationship of anti-apoptotic cellular activity is presented. These efforts led to the discovery of compound 20o as a potent caspase inhibitor, which demonstrated preclinical ameliorating total bilirubin efficacy with a significantly improved pharmacokinetic profile.

Discovery of 3,3'-Spiro[Azetidine]-2-oxo-indoline Derivatives as Fusion Inhibitors for Treatment of RSV Infection.

A new series of 3,3'-spirocyclic-2-oxo-indoline derivatives was synthesized and evaluated against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in a cell-based assay and animal model. Extensive structure-activity relationship study led to a lead compound , which exhibited excellent potency with an EC value of 0.8 nM and demonstrated 71% oral bioavailability in mice.
