Comprehensive SAR studies were undertaken in the 3,4-diaminocyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione class of CXCR2/CXCR1 receptor antagonists to explore the role of the heterocycle on chemokine receptor binding affinities, functional activity, as well as oral exposure in rat. The nature of the heterocycle as well as the requisite substitution pattern around the heterocycle was shown to have a dramatic effect on the overall biological profile of this class of compounds. The furyl class, particularly the 4-halo adducts, was found to possess superior binding affinities for both the CXCR2 and CXCR1 receptors, functional activity, as well as oral exposure in rat versus other heterocyclic derivatives.

LPS inhalation was used to investigate whether sputum supernatant post-LPS challenge increases neutrophil chemotactic activity and to elucidate the role of CXCR1/CXCR2 signalling in this process. 14 healthy non-smoking subjects inhaled 30μg of LPS. Sputum was induced at baseline, 6 and 24h post-LPS challenge.

Neutrophils and monocytes are abundantly represented in the synovial fluid and tissue in rheumatoid arthritis patients. We therefore explored the effects of small molecule chemokine receptor antagonists to block migration of these cells in anti-collagen antibody-induced arthritis. Targeting neutrophil migration with the CXCR2/CXCR1 antagonist SCH563705 led to a dose-dependent decrease in clinical disease scores and paw thickness measurements and clearly reduced inflammation and bone and cartilage degradation based on histopathology and paw cytokine analyses.

Purpose: Melanoma, the most aggressive form of skin cancer, accounts for 75% of all skin cancer-related deaths and current therapeutic strategies are not effective in advanced disease. In the current study, we have investigated the efficacy of orally active small-molecule antagonist targeting CXCR2/CXCR1.
Experimental Design: Human A375SM melanoma cells were treated with SCH-479833 or SCH-527123, and their effect on proliferation, motility, and invasion was evaluated in vitro.

A series of potent and orally bioavailable 3,4-diaminocyclobutenediones with various fluoroalkyl groups as alpha side chain were prepared and found to show significant improvements in the binding affinities towards both CXCR2 and CXCR1 receptors.
