LY 3000328 maintains excellent in vitro potency and selectivity. LY 3000328 shows low in vitro CYP450 inhibition (<15% at 10 μM for CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and CYP2C9); low in vitro metabolism in mouse, rat, dog, and human liver microsomes (<20% after 30 min incubation at 4 μM); and good permeability (MDCK A-B>4%). At a 100 μM concentration of LY 3000328 there is only 6% displacement of [3H]-astemizole in an assay with HEK293 membrane preparation, indicating low potential of hERG blockade[1]. LY 3000328 is a potent and specific inhibitor of cathepsin S (CatS). Inhibition of CatS activity in plasma would be 50% of maximal when LY 3000328 plasma concentration is approximately 60 ng/mL[2].
