Publication Abstract from PubMed
Our first generation of hydroxyethylamine BACE-1 inhibitors proved unlikely to provide molecules that would lower amyloid in an animal model at low oral doses. This observation led us to the discovery of a second generation of inhibitors having nanomolar activity in a cell-based assay and with the potential for improved pharmacokinetic profiles. In this Letter, we describe our successful strategy for the optimization of oral bioavailability and also give insights into the design of compounds with the potential for improved brain penetration.
