AI Article Synopsis

  • A new class of H-PGDS inhibitors, specifically 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-6-carboxamide, was discovered through a virtual screening process at GlaxoSmithKline.
  • Detailed analysis of crystal structures and structure-activity relationships (SAR) resulted in the identification of a powerful, orally active imidazopyridine inhibitor, designated as 20b.
  • The text discusses the identification of two types of inhibitors, their synthesis processes, and the challenges encountered during the research.

Article Abstract

Through an internal virtual screen at GlaxoSmithKline a distinct class of 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-6-carboxamide H-PGDS inhibitors were discovered. Careful evaluation of crystal structures and SAR led to a novel, potent, and orally active imidazopyridine inhibitor of H-PGDS, 20b. Herein, describes the identification of 2 classes of inhibitors, their syntheses, and their challenges.
