Summary: | A virtual screening approach followed by lead optimization led to a series of compounds, exemplified by
12, that were potent, selective GR antagonists.
A virtual screening approach comprising a 3-D similarity search based on known GR modulators was used to identify a novel series of non-steroidal glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonists. Optimization of the initial hit to provide potent compounds which exhibit good selectivity against other steroidal nuclear hormone receptors is described. |
