Identification of a Selective, Non-Prostanoid EP2 Receptor Agonist for the Treatment of Glaucoma: Omidenepag and its Prodrug Omidenepag Isopropyl.
EP2 receptor agonists are expected to be effective ocular hypotensive agents; however, it has been suggested that agonism to other EP receptor subtypes may lead to undesirable effects. Through medicinal chemistry efforts, we identified a scaffold bearing a (pyridin-2-ylamino)acetic acid moiety as a promising EP2-selective receptor agonist. (6-((4-(Pyrazol-1-yl)benzyl)(pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)aminomethyl)pyridin-2-ylamino)acetic acid 13ax (omidenepag, OMD) exerted potent and selective activity toward the human EP2 receptor (h-EP2). Low doses of omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI), a prodrug of 13ax, lowered intraocular pressure (IOP) in ocular normotensive monkeys. OMDI was selected as a clinical candidate for the treatment of glaucoma.
