Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Isoquinoline Ureas as TRPV1 Antagonists

摘要

Background: The inhibition of transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) has emerged as a novel approach for the treatment of various pain states. Pyrrolidinyl urea, SB 705498 with pK(b) = 7.3 in guinea pig TRPV1 receptor has been investigated in Phase II clinical trials for pain and chronic cough. Another heteroaryl urea derivative, A-425619 1, has been reported to be a potent and selective TRPV1 antagonist of capsaicin-evoked receptor activation with an IC50 value of 4 nM in hTRPV1.
