    Abstract:
    Hydroxyl 1,2-diphenylethanamine analogs were identified as potent inhibitors of cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP), a therapeutic target to raise HDL cholesterol. In an effort to improve the pharmaceutical properties in the previously disclosed DiPhenylPyridineEthanamine (DPPE) series, polar groups were introduced to the N-linked quaternary center. Optimization of analogues for potency, in vitro liability profile and efficacy led to identification of lead compound 16 which demonstrated robust pharmacodynamic effects in human CETP/apo-B100 dual transgenic mice.
