Title: A structural screening approach to ketoamide-based inhibitors of cathepsin K.

Abstract: Several novel ketoamide-based inhibitors of cathepsin K have been identified. Starting from a modestly potent inhibitor, structural screening of P2 elements led to 100-fold enhancements in inhibitory activity. Modifications to one of these leads resulted in an orally bioavailable cathepsin K inhibitor.
