摘要
This letter shows inhibitor SAR on a pyridine series of allosteric Akt inhibitors to optimize enzymatic and cellular potency. We have optimized 2,3,5-trisubstituted pyridines to give potent Akt1 and Akt2 inhibitors in both enzyme and cell based assays. In addition, we will also highlight the pharmacokinetic pro. le of an optimized inhibitor that has low clearance and long half-life in dogs. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
