The current therapeutic demand focuses more on the discovery of safer NSAIDs rather than exploring more potent alternatives. The dual COX-2/5 -LOX inhibition is a promising strategy for designing compounds with an enhanced efficacy, reduced side-effects and a broader anti-inflammatory spectrum in comparison to classical NSAIDs. In the present study, a hybridization strategy was adopted to combine the binding features of the non-selective COX inhibitor sulindac and the selective COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib which show 5 -LOX inhibitory activity with that of licofelone and a celecoxib pyridone analogue which show dual COX-2/5 -LOX inhibitory activity to design new series of pyrazole sulfonamide derivatives which, by design, should possess dual COX-2/5 -LOX inhibitory activity. All the newly synthesized compounds were initially tested for their potential analgesic activity, then candidates that showed potential analgesic activity, were selected for the subsequent anti-inflammatory activity evaluation, as well as, ulcerogenicity testing. Moreover, in vitro assessment of their COX-1, COX-2 and 5 -LOX inhibitory activities were performed. The benzothiophen-2-yl pyrazole carboxylic acid derivative 5b showed the most potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities surpassing that of celecoxib and indomethacin. It showed potent COX-1, COX-2 and 5-LOX inhibitory activity with IC50 of 5.40, 0.01 and 1.78 M, respectively, showing a selectivity index of 344.56 that was much better than the used reference standards and its parent compounds, confirming its selectivity towards COX-2 over COX-1. The prodrug ester derivatives 6c and 6d showed equipotent activity to their parent compound 5b with no gastric ulcerogenicity. Molecular docking simulations confirmed that the newly synthesized compounds possess the structural features required for binding to the target enzymes COX-2 and 5 -LOX. (C) 2020 Elsevier Masson SAS.
