Abstract

Structure-based rational design led to the discovery of novel inhibitors of the MDM2-p53 protein-protein interaction. The affinity of these compounds for MDM2 was improved through conformational control of both the piperidinone ring and the appended N-alkyl substituent. Optimization afforded 29 (AM-8553), a potent and selective MDM2 Inhibitor with excellent pharmacokinetic properties and in vivo efficacy.
