Title: 4-amidinobenzylamine-based inhibitors of urokinase.

Authors: Künzel S, Schweinitz A, Reissmann S, Stürzebecher J, Steinmetzer T.

Abstract: A series of 4-amidinobenzylamine-based peptidomimetic inhibitors of urokinase was synthesized. The most potent one, benzylsulfonyl-D-Ser-Ala-4-amidinobenzylamide 16, inhibits uPA with a K(i) of 7.7 nM but is less selective than 10 with a Gly as P2 residue. Hydroxyamidine and carbonate prodrugs were prepared, which are rapidly converted into the active inhibitors in rats after subcutaneous application.
