Discovery of a Series of Indole‑2 Carboxamides as Selective Secreted Phospholipase A<sub>2</sub> Type X (sPLA<sub>2</sub>‑X) Inhibitors
In order to assess the potential
of sPLA<sub>2</sub>-X as a therapeutic target for atherosclerosis,
novel sPLA<sub>2</sub> inhibitors with improved type X selectivity
are required. To achieve the objective of identifying such compounds,
we embarked on a lead generation effort that resulted in the identification
of a novel series of indole-2-carboxamides as selective sPLA2-X inhibitors
with excellent potential for further optimization
