The heterodimeric transmembrane alpha v integrin receptors have recently emerged as potential targets for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Herein, we describe how subtle modifications of the central aromatic ring of a series of phenylbutyrate-based antagonists of the vitronectin receptors alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5 significantly change the biological activities against alpha v beta 6 and alpha v beta 8. This resulted in the discovery of a pan alpha v antagonist (compound 39, 4-40 nM for the integrin receptors named above) possessing excellent oral pharmacokinetic properties in rats (with a clearance of 7.6 mL/(min kg) and a bioavailability of 97%).
