With possible implications in multiple autoimmune diseases, the retinoic acid receptor‐related orphan receptor RORγ has become a sought‐after target in the pharmaceutical industry. Herein are described the efforts to identify a potent RORγ inverse agonist compatible with topical application for the treatment of skin diseases. These efforts culminated in the discovery of N‐(2,4‐dimethylphenyl)‐N‐isobutyl‐2‐oxo‐1‐[(tetrahydro‐2H‐pyran‐4‐yl)methyl]‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐benzo[d]imidazole‐5‐sulfonamide (CD12681), a potent inverse agonist with in vivo activity in an IL‐23‐induced mouse skin inflammation model.

发现和表征CD12681，一种有效的RORγ反向激动剂，用于牛皮癣局部治疗的临床前候选药物

视黄酸受体相关的孤儿受体RORγ可能对多种自身免疫性疾病有潜在影响，已成为制药行业的抢手目标。本文描述了鉴定与局部应用治疗皮肤疾病相容的有效RORγ反向激动剂的努力。这些努力最终导致发现了N-（2,4-二甲基苯基）-N-异丁基-2-氧代-1-[[（四氢-2 H-吡喃-4-基）甲基] -2,3-二氢-1 H-苯并[ d ]咪唑-5-磺酰胺（CD12681），一种有效的反向激动剂，在IL-23诱导的小鼠皮肤炎症模型中具有体内活性。
