Human African trypanosomiasis is causing thousands of deaths every year in the rural areas of Africa. In this manuscript we describe the optimization of a family of phtalazinone derivatives. Phosphodiesterases have emerged as attractive molecular targets for a novel treatment for a variety of neglected parasitic diseases. Compound 1 resulted in being a potent TbrPDEB1 inhibitor with interesting activity against T. brucei in a phenotypic screen. Derivative 1 was studied in an acute in vivo mouse disease model but unfortunately showed no efficacy due to low metabolic stability. We report structural modifications to achieve compounds with an improved metabolic stability while maintaining high potency against TbrPDEB1 and T. brucei. Compound 14 presented a good microsomal stability in mouse and human microsomes and provides a good starting point for future efforts.

Chagas disease is becoming a worldwide problem; it is currently estimated that over six million people are infected. The two drugs in current use, benznidazole and nifurtimox, require long treatment regimens, show limited efficacy in the chronic phase of infection, and are known to cause adverse effects. Phenotypic screening of an in-house library led to the identification of 2,2′-methylenebis(5-(4-bromophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one), a phenyldihydropyrazolone dimer, which shows an in vitro pIC50 value of 5.4 against Trypanosoma cruzi. Initial optimization was done by varying substituents of the phenyl ring, after which attempts were made to replace the phenyl ring. Finally, the linker between the dimer units was varied, ultimately leading to 2,2′-methylenebis(5-(3-bromo-4-methoxyphenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one (NPD-0228) as the most potent analogue. NPD-0228 has an in vitro pIC50 value of 6.4 against intracellular amastigotes of T. cruzi and no apparent toxicity against the human MRC-5 cell line and murine cardiac cells.

The compounds of formula (1) wherein R1 represents a phenyl derivative of formulae (a), (b) or (c) R10 is 1-3C-alkyl and R11 is 1-3C-alkyl, or R10 and R11 together with the carbon atom, to which they are bonded, form a spiro-linked 3-, 4-, 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbon ring, A is C(O) or S(O)2, and R12 is phenyl, naphthalenyl, pyridinyl, quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl, quinoxalinyl, 1,6-naphthyridinyl, 1,8-naphthyridinyl, indolyl, phenyl substituted by R13, R14, R15 and R16, pyridinyl substituted by R17 and R18, naphthalenyl substituted by R19 and R20, quinolinyl substituted by R21 or indolyl substituted by R22, are novel effective inhibitors of the type 4 phosphodiesterase.
