Abstract

A series of novel thiazole-containing amides were synthesized. A structure-activity relationship study of these compounds led to the identification of potent and selective PfFPPS/GGPPS inhibitors with good in vitro ADME profiles. The most promising candidate molecules were progressed to mouse in vivo PK studies and demonstrated adequate free drug exposure to warrant further investigation.
