However, the time to “get on” is about 6 h.
Before this time the ligand is a partial antagonist
Once “on”, the ligand behaves as an insurmountable antagonist

Brief introduction to CRTh2
CRTh2 activation:
induces a reduction of intracellular cAMP and calcium mobilization.
is involved in chemotaxis of Th2 lymphocytes, eosinophils, mast cells and basophils.
inhibits the apoptosis of Th2 lymphocytes
stimulates the production of IL4, IL5, and IL13, leading to:
eosinophil recruitment and survival mucus secretion airway hyper-responsiveness immunoglobulin E (IgE) production etc
CRTh2 and DP1 review. Nat. Rev. Drug Disc. (2007), 6, 313
Real name:
Chemoattractant Receptor-homologous molecule expressed on T-Helper 2 cells
Also known as DP2
CRTh2 antagonism:
Should block pro-inflammatory PGD2 effects on key cell types
Potential benefit in: asthma allergic rhinitis atopic dermatitis.

Techniques used to avoid rapid clearance:
1.Very high plasma protein binding (e.g. Diflunisal >99%)2.Zwitterionic tissue distribution (e.g. Trovafloxacin, Vss 1.3 L/kg)3.Organ distribution (e.g. Pravastatin, t½ 0.5 h, but concentrated in the liver)4.Be small, be ignored by the liver (e.g. Probenecid, 80-90% renal excretion)

Our internal programmeWe want to find a once a day, oral, low dose (≤ 10 mg) CRTh2 antagonist for mild-moderate asthma
All antagonists are acids.
Acids generally have poor PK
Clinical dosing of first CRTh2 antagonists – high dose and twice daily
Therefore, we chose to deliberately look for slowly dissociating CRTH2 antagonists:
to maintain receptor occupancy beyond normal PK and extend duration of action to reduce the pressure of finding a carboxylic acid with desirable PK properties to add the possibility of extra protection due to insurmountability against PGD2 burst release

For a purely antagonistic effect, prolonging Receptor Occupancy prolongs PD effect
You will only really appreciate a PK-PD disconnection if Dissociation half-life >> PK terminal half-life
For GPCR antagonism, you should count on extending the PD effect by half a half-life
A “PK phase” of antagonism is needed to “set” the ligand in the receptor, regardless of mechanism
We are pretty good at explaining what’s behind Structure-Activity Relationships (SAR)Structure-Residence Relationships (SRR) are in their infancy and/or qualitative
To find Long Residence, you need to look for it
