ziritaxestat
Ziretaxestat, an oral autotaxin (ATX) inhibitor originated by Galapagos, once garnered excitement as the first molecule to complete a Ph. III clinical program in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis since the approvals of nintedanib and pirfenidone. Following the disappointing clinical data and discontinuation of the molecule, this annotation revisits ziritaxestat in the context of other inhibitors, recaps the therapeutic hypothesis and how it was discovered, summarizes notable molecular properties for drug discovery scientists, and discusses what happened and what’s next.
PF-05221304
PF-05221304 is a liver targeted inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC). ACC is a key regulator of lipid metabolism, and there has been significant interest in ACC inhibitors for the treatment of multiple indications including NASH and diabetes. Pfizer previously took a systemic ACC inhibitor into the clinic (PF-05175157), which was found [...]
"compound 10"
The Janssen gut-restricted COX-2 inhibitor, compound 10 , is a tool compound used to test the hypothesis that gut-restricted COX-2 inhibition would be beneficial for cancer without the cardiovascular risk of systemic COX-2 inhibition. Unfortunately, IVIVC of several compounds demonstrated that in vivo efficacy was not driven by gut COX-2 [...]
resmetirom
On Mar. 14th, 2024, resmetirom (REZDIFFRA™) became the first and only medicine approved by the FDA for the treatment of NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, aka MASH). Resmetirom, an oral, liver-targeting, once-daily THR-β-selective agonist originally discovered at Roche Nutley, was first highlighted as a Molecule of the Month in Dec. 2022. Now, with the FDA’s accelerated approval, this 2023 Molecule of the Year nominee reflects a historic milestone for liver drug discovery. This article reviews how the molecule works, how it was discovered, and why it’s a big deal.
TAK-906
The Altos Therapeutics /Takeda D2/D3 receptor antagonist, TAK-906 , is a peripherally-restricted, non-BBB penetrant molecule, targeting the stomach and vomiting center in the area postrema to treat gastroparesis. Gastroparesis is a chronic condition characterized by delayed gastric emptying, resulting in nausea, vomiting, pain, and anorexia [...]
