Abstract

Utilizing structure-based drug design, a novel dihydropyridopyrimidinone series which exhibited potent HSP90 inhibition, good pharmacokinetics upon oral administration, and an excellent pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship in vivo was developed from a commercial hit. The exploration of this series led to the selection of NVP-HSP990 as a development candidate.
