Abstract

High throughput screening of the corporate compound collection led to the identification of a novel series of 2-amino-9-aryl-3-cyano-4-methyl-7-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[2',3':4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives as selective PR agonists. Initial SAR exploration leading to potent and selective agonists 9 and 11, X-ray crystal structure of 9 bound to PR-LBD and preliminary developability data are described.
