Abstract
Structural modification performed on a 4-methyl-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)hydantoinseries is described which resulted in the development of a new seriesof 4-(hydroxymethyl)diarylhydantoin analogues as potent, partial agonistsof the human androgen receptor. This led to the identification of(S)-(−)-4-(4-(hydroxymethyl)-3-methyl-2,5-dioxo-4-phenylimidazolidin-1-yl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile((S)-(−)-18a, GLPG0492) evaluatedin vivo in a classical model of orchidectomized rat. In this model,(−)-18aexhibited anabolic activity on muscle,strongly dissociated from the androgenic activity on prostate afteroral dosing. (−)-18ahas very good pharmacokineticproperties, including bioavailability in rat (F>50%), and is currently under evaluation in phase I clinical trials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
