Based on an old phenoxyacetic acid scaffold, CPU014 (compound 14) has been identified as a superior agonist by comprehensive exploration of structure-activity relationship. In vitro toxicity study suggested that CPU014 has lower risk of hepatotoxicity than TAK-875. During acute toxicity study (5–500 mg/kg), a favorable therapeutic window of CPU014 was observed by evaluation of plasma profiles and liver slices. Moreover, CPU014 promotes insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, while no GLP-1 secretion has been enhanced. Other than good pharmacokinetic properties, CPU014 significantly improved glucose tolerance both in normal and diabetic models without the risk of hypoglycemia. These subversive findings provided a safer candidate CPU014, which is currently in preclinical study to assess its potential for the treatment of diabetes.

In the pursuit of new antimalarial leads, a phenotypic screening of various commercially sourced compound libraries was undertaken by the World Health Organisation Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (WHO-TDR). We report here the detailed characterization of one of the hits from this process, TDR32750 (8a), which showed potent activity against Plasmodium falciparum K1 (EC50 ~ 9 nM), good selectivity (>2000-fold) compared to a mammalian cell line (L6), and significant activity against a rodent model of malaria when administered intraperitoneally. Structure-activity relationship studies have indicated ways in which the molecule could be optimized. This compound represents an exciting start point for a drug discovery program for the development of a novel antimalarial.
