Title: Discovery of N-(6-(5-fluoro-2-(piperidin-1-yl)phenyl)pyridazin-3-yl)-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methanesulfonamide as a brain-permeable and metabolically stable kynurenine monooxygenase inhibitor.

Abstract: Kynurenine monooxygenase (KMO) is expected to be a good drug target to treat Huntington's disease (HD). This study presents the structure-activity relationship of pyridazine derivatives to find novel KMO inhibitors. The most promising compound 14 resolved the problematic issues of lead compound 1, i.e., metabolic instability and reactive metabolite-derived side-effects. Compound 14 exhibited high brain permeability and a long-lasting pharmacokinetics profile in monkeys, and neuroprotective kynurenic acid was increased by a single administration of 14 in R6/2 mouse brain. These results demonstrated 14 may be a potential drug candidate to treat HD.
