Write a review / see user reviewsChemical structure
Highlights
BI 1002494 is a potent inhibitor of SYK with an 50 of 0.8 nM and inhibits in human whole blood the DNP/BSA (dinitroprusside / bovine serum albumine) induced expression of CD63 in basophils with an average 50 of 115 nM (N=263) as well as in human B cells the goat anti-human IgD induced secretion of CD69 with an 50 of 810 nM (N=36). In addition to its excellent target inhibition, its high solubility and metabolic stability makes it a suitable tool for in vivo mouse and rat studies. For instance, it showed 90% reduction of BAL (bronchoalveolar lavage) eosinophils in a rat OVA model at 30 mg/kg (b.i.d.). No adverse events were observed in a 13-week mouse toxicology study up to 100 mg/kg (b.i.d.).

Target information
SYK propagates signal transduction for a number of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif–dependent proinflammatory pathways, including Fc receptor, B-cell receptor (BCR), and integrin signaling.

In vivo pharmacology
BI 1002494 showed 90% reduction of BAL (bronchoalveolar lavage) eosinophils in rat OVA (ovalbumin) model at 30 mg/kg. Rat passive anaphylaxis pulmonary model 50, unbound = 50 nM. 1
Negative control
BI-2492
With BI-2492 a structurally very similar molecule (diastereoisomer) with an SYK 50 = 625 nM (780-fold less potent than BI 1002494) is offered which can be used as a negative control.
