Abstract: The design and discovery of a new series of (5-alkynyl-3-hydroxypicolinoyl)glycine inhibitors of prolyl hydroxylase (PHD) are described. These compounds showed potent in vitro inhibitory activity toward PHD2 in a fluorescence polarization-based assay. Remarkably, oral administration of 17, with an IC of 64.2 nM toward PHD2, was found to stabilize HIF-α, elevate erythropoietin (EPO), and alleviate anemia in a cisplatin-induced anemia mouse model with an oral dose of 25 mg/kg. Rat and dog studies showed that 17 has good pharmacokinetic properties, with oral bioavailabilities of 55.7 and 54.0%, respectively, and shows excellent safety profiles even at a high dose of 200 mg/kg in these animals. Based on these results, 17 is currently being evaluated in a phase I clinical trial for anemia.
