Publication Abstract from PubMed
Optimisation of a high-throughput screening hit resulted in the discovery of 4-(substituted amino)-1-alkyl-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5-carboxamides as potent and selective inhibitors of Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4). Herein, we describe early SAR studies around this novel template highlighting preferred substituents and rationalization of SAR through X-ray crystal structures of analogues bound to the PDE4 active site. Pyrazolopyridine 20a was found to be a potent and selective PDE4 inhibitor which also inhibits LPS induced TNF-alpha production from isolated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and has an encouraging rat PK profile suitable for oral dosing.
