Resumo

Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Inhibition of LRRK2 kinase activity is a therapeutic approach that may lead to new treatments for PD. Herein we report the discovery of a series of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazines that are potent against both wild-type and mutant LRRK2 kinase activity in biochemical assays and show an unprecedented selectivity towards the G2019S mutant. A structural rational for the observed selectivity is proposed.
