摘要
Acylated beta-amino acids are described as potent, specific and orally bioavailable antagonists of VLA-4. The initial lead was identified from a combinatorial library. Subsequent optimization using a traditional medicinal chemistry approach led to significant improvement in potency (up to 8-fold) while maintaining good pharmacokinetic properties.
