Abstract
Rational modification of the clinically tested CGRP receptor antagonist MK-3207 (3) afforded an analogue with increased unbound fraction in rat plasma and enhanced aqueous solubility, 2-[(8R)-8-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-8-methyl-10-oxo-6,9-diazaspiro[4.5]dec-9-yl]-N-[(6S)-2'-oxo-1',2',5,7-tetrahydrospiro[cyclopenta[b]pyridine-6,3'-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin]-3-yl]acetamide (MK-8825) (6). Compound 6 maintained similar affinity to 3 at the human and rat CGRP receptors but possessed significantly improved in vivo potency in a rat pharmacodynamic model. The overall profile of 6 indicates it should find utility as a rat tool to investigate effects of CGRP receptor blockade in vivo.Entities:
