Discovery of Novel Pharmacophores
Inhibiting the Growth of
Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Description of Technology:
Tuberculosis (TB) caused by
Mycobacterium tuberculosis infects
roughly one third of the world
population and approximately 8 million
people develop TB annually. The
emergence of multi-drug resistant
(MDR) and extensively drug-resistant
(XDR) TB strains highlight the need for
new drugs against TB. The inventions
described herein are small molecules
with drug-like properties that inhibit the
growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
The compounds were discovered
utilizing high-throughput screening of a
101,000 compound library. Three
hundred active compounds inhibit
Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth by
90% or greater in in vitro assays with
MIC values ranging from 1.6 to less than
0.1 micrograms/ml, and showing
minimal toxicity in tissue culture cells.
Structure similarity analyses of the
compounds reveal 44 chemical clusters
representing 250 active compounds.
Applications: Treatment of TB
infections.
Advantages: Novel drug candidates
against TB.
Development Status: In vitro data can
be provided upon request.
Market: TB therapeutics.
Inventors: Robert C. Goldman (NIAID)
et al.
Publications: Manuscript in
preparation.
Patent Status: U.S. Provisional
Application No. 61/092,710 filed 28
Aug 2008 (HHS Reference No. E–310–
2008/0–US–01).
Licensing Status: Available for
exclusive or non-exclusive licensing.
