This study reports the discovery of a potent M-4 mAChR antagonist VU6028418 with high subtype-selectivity and attractive DMPK properties for potential treatment of dystonia and other movement disorders, along with the novel use of deuterium incorporation as a means to modulate CYP inhibition during the characterization of VU6028418.
Herein, we report the SAR leading to the discovery of VU6028418, a potent M-4 mAChR antagonist with high subtype-selectivity and attractive DMPK properties in vitro and in vivo across multiple species. VU6028418 was subsequently evaluated as a preclinical candidate for the treatment of dystonia and other movement disorders. During the characterization of VU6028418, a novel use of deuterium incorporation as a means to modulate CYP inhibition was also discovered.
