Abstract
A novel structural class of p38α MAP kinase inhibitors has been identified via iterative SAR studies of a focused deck screen hit. Optimization of the lead series generated 6e, BMS-640994, a potent and selective p38α inhibitor that is orally efficacious in rodent models of acute and chronic inflammation.
