Abstract

We describe the discovery of the potent and selective Syk inhibitor 11 which showed favorable PK profiles in rat and dog and was found to be active in a collagen induced arthritis model in rats. Compound 11 was selected for further profiling but, unfortunately, in GLP toxicological studies it showed liver findings in rat and dog. Consequently, compound 11 had to be abandoned. Nevertheless, 11 might be a valuable tool compound to study the biology of Syk in vitro and in vivo.
