ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2019•ACS PublicationsHerein, we report the discovery of a potent and selective dual DDR1/2 inhibitor, 7e
(VU6015929), displaying low cytotoxicity, good kinome selectivity, and possessing an
acceptable in vitro DMPK profile with good rodent in vivo pharmacokinetics. VU6015929
potently blocks collagen-induced DDR1 activation and collagen-IV production, suggesting
DDR1 inhibition as an exciting target for antifibrotic therapy.
