Abstract

A novel series of EP4 antagonists, based on a quinoline scaffold, has been discovered. Medicinal chemistry efforts to optimize the potency of the initial hit are described. A highly potent compound in a clinically relevant human whole blood assay was identified. Selectivity and pharmacokinetic profiles of this compound are discussed.<br /> (Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.)
