A novel glucocorticoids series of (GCs), 6α,9α-di-Fluoro 3-substituted C-16,17-isoxazolines was designed, synthesised and their structure-activity relationship was evaluated with glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binding studies together with GR nuclear translocation cell-based assays. This strategy, coupled with in silico modelling analysis, allowed for the identification of Cpd #15, an isoxazoline showing a sub-nanomolar inhibitory potency (IC50 = 0.84 nM) against TNFα-evoked IL-8 release in primary human airways smooth muscle cells. In Raw264.7 mouse macrophages, Cpd #15 inhibited LPS-induced NO release with a potency (IC50 = 6 nM) > 10-fold higher with respect to Dexamethasone. Upon intratracheal (i.t.) administration, Cpd #15, at 0.1 μmol/kg significantly inhibited and at 1 μmol/kg fully counteracted eosinophilic infiltration in a model of allergen-induced pulmonary inflammation in rats. Moreover, Cpd #15 proved to be suitable for pulmonary topical administration given its sustained lung retention (t1/2 = 6.5 h) and high pulmonary levels (>100-fold higher than plasma levels) upon intratracheal administration in rats. In summary, Cpd #15 displays a pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile suitable for topical treatment of conditions associated with pulmonary inflammation such as asthma and COPD.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a promising target in immunomodulation of several pathological conditions, especially cancers. Here we present the synthesis of a series of IDO1 inhibitors with the novel isoxazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one scaffold. A focused library was prepared using a 6-or 7-step synthetic procedure to allow a systematic investigation of the structure-activity relationships of the described scaffold. Chemistry-driven modifications lead us to the discovery of our best-in-class inhibitors possessing p-trifluoromethyl (23), p-cyclohexyl (32), or p-methoxycarbonyl (20, 39) substituted aniline moieties with IC50 values in the low micromolar range. In addition to hIDO1, compounds were tested for their inhibition of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 2 and tryptophan dioxygenase, and found to be selective for hIDO1. Our results thus demon-strate a successful study on IDO1-selective isoxazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one inhibitors, defining promising chemical probes with a novel scaffold for further development of potent small-molecule immunomodulators.

In order to systematically explore and better understand the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of a diarylmethane backbone in the design of potent uric acid transporter 1 (URAT1) inhibitors, 33 compounds (1a-1x and 1ha-1hi) were designed and synthesized, and their in vitro URAT1 inhibitory activities (IC50) were determined. The three-round systematic SAR exploration led to the discovery of a highly potent novel URAT1 inhibitor, 1h, which was 200-and 8-fold more potent than parent lesinurad and benzbromarone, respectively (IC50 = 0.035 μM against human URAT1 for 1h vs. 7.18 μM and 0.28 μM for lesinurad and benzbromarone, respectively). Compound 1h is the most potent URAT1 inhibitor discovered in our laboratories so far and also comparable to the most potent ones currently under development in clinical trials. The present study demonstrates that the diarylmethane backbone represents a very promising molecular scaffold for the design of potent URAT1 inhibitors.
