AZD4017
AZD4017 is a novel orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of 11β-HSD1 enzyme activity. It is potent and highly selective in vitro and in vivo. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) for inhibition of 11β-HSD1 activity (cortisone to cortisol conversion) is 2nM. AZD4017 is selective (\> 2000x) for 11β-HSD1 over human recombinant 11β-HSD2 and the closely-homologous enzymes 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3 in vitro.
