Discovery of Novel 3,3-Disubstituted Piperidines as Orally Bioavailable, Potent, and Efficacious HDM2-p53 Inhibitors

Journal Article · · ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters

A new subseries of substituted piperidines as p53-HDM2 inhibitors exemplified by 21 has been developed from the initial lead 1. Research focused on optimization of a crucial HDM2 Trp23–ligand interaction led to the identification of 2-(trifluoromethyl)thiophene as the preferred moiety. Further investigation of the Leu26 pocket resulted in potent, novel substituted piperidine inhibitors of the HDM2-p53 interaction that demonstrated tumor regression in several human cancer xenograft models in mice. The structure of HDM2 in complex with inhibitors 3, 10, and 21 is described.
