Discovery of a Biaryl Cyclohexene Carboxylic Acid (MK-6892): A Potent and Selective High Affinity Niacin Receptor Full Agonist with Reduced Flushing Profiles in Animals as a Preclinical Candidate

Abstract

Biaryl cyclohexene carboxylic acids were discovered as full and potent niacin receptor (GPR109A) agonists. Compound 1e (MK-6892) displayed excellent receptor activity, good PK across species, remarkably clean off-target profiles, good ancillary pharmacology, and superior therapeutic window over niacin regarding the FFA reduction versus vasodilation in rats and dogs.
