Dopamine receptor antagonism is a compelling molecular target for the treatment of a range of psychiatric disorders, including substance use disorders. From our corporate compound file, we identified a structurally unique D3 receptor (D3R) antagonist scaffold, 1. Through a hybrid approach, we merged key pharmacophore elements from 1 and D3 agonist 2 to yield the novel D3R/D2R antagonist PF-4363467 (3). Compound 3 was designed to possess CNS drug-like properties as defined by its CNS MPO desirability score (≥4/6). In addition to good physicochemical properties, 3 exhibited low nanomolar affinity for the D3R (D3 Ki = 3.1 nM), good subtype selectivity over D2R (D2 Ki = 692 nM), and high selectivity for D3R versus other biogenic amine receptors. In vivo, 3 dose-dependently attenuated opioid self-administration and opioid drug-seeking behavior in a rat operant reinstatement model using animals trained to self-administer fentanyl. Further, traditional extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), adverse side effects arising from D2R antagonism, were not observed despite high D2 receptor occupancy (RO) in rodents, suggesting that compound 3 has a unique in vivo profile. Collectively, our data support further investigation of dual D3R and D2R antagonists for the treatment of drug addiction.

A number of tricyclic carboxamides have been synthesized and tested to evaluate their ability to reverse multidrug resistance in the CHRC/5 cell line.Among them the acridone derivatives were the most potent.A key feature is the presence of a dimethoxybenzyl or phenethylamine cationic site, separated from the tricyclic lipophilic part by a carbamoylphenyl chain.Optimization led to compounds 2 orders of magnitude more active than the prototype inhibitors verapamil and amiodarone.On the basis of in vitro and in vivo activities, 9,10-dihydro-5-methoxy-9-oxo-N-phenyl>-4-acridinecarboxamide (84) has been selected for further development.
