摘要

The discovery of potent and selective cyanamide-based inhibitors of the cysteine protease cathepsin C is detailed. Optimization of the template with regard to plasma stability led to the identification of compound 17, a potent cathepsin C inhibitor with excellent selectivity over other cathepsins and potent in vivo activity in a cigarette smoke mouse model.
