Abstract
4-(1-Benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethylpiperidine-4-ylmethyl)-6-chlorochromen-2-one (7) is a potent, orally bioavailable melanin concentrating hormone receptor 1 (MCHr1) antagonist that causes dose-dependent weight loss in diet-induced obese mice. Further evaluation of 7 in an anesthetized dog model of cardiovascular safety revealed adverse hemodynamic effects at a plasma concentration comparable to the minimally effective therapeutic concentration. These results highlight the need for scrutiny of the cardiovascular safety profile of MCHr1 antagonists.Entities:
