A high throughput screening approach to the identification of selective cholecystokinin-2 receptor (CCK-2R) ligands resulted in the discovery of a novel series of antagonists, represented by 1-[2-[(2,1,3-benzothiadiazol-4-ylsulfonyl)amino]-5-chlorobenzoyl]-piperidine (1; CCK-2R, pKI = 6.4). Preliminaryexploration of the structure-activity relationships around the anthranilic ring and the amide and sulfonamidemoieties led to a nearly 50-fold improvement of receptor affinity and showed a greater than 1000-foldselectivity over the related cholecystokinin-1 receptor. Pharmacokinetic evaluation led to the identificationof 4-[4-iodo-2-[(5-quinoxalinylsulfonyl)amino]benzoyl]-morpholine, 26d, a compound that demonstratespromising pharmacokinetic properties in the rat and dog with respect to plasma clearance and oralbioavailability and is a potent inhibitor in vivo of pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion in the rat whendosed orally.
