  • Publication number: 20230226027
    Abstract: Coronaviridae is a family of enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses. The emergence of a new beta-coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has led to a major health-related crisis associated with a significant mortality in intensive care units, due to the pulmonary complications of COVID-19. The inventors showed that an inhibitor of EPAC1 (i.e. AM-001) is suitable for inhibiting replication of coronavirus and thus would be suitable for the treatment of infections mediated by said type of virus.

  • Publication number: 20230030517
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Today, there is no cure for IFF. The inventors showed that EPAC1 inhibitors, in particular CE3F4 and AM-001, represent a promising therapeutic strategy for treating patients with pulmonary fibrosis. The present invention thus relates to an EPAC1 inhibitor for use in the treatment and/or prevention of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

  • Publication number: 20210230179
    Abstract: The present invention relates to thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives for use in the treatment and/or the prevention of a disease selected from the group consisting of inflammation, cancer, vascular diseases, kidney diseases, cognitive disorders, pain, infections, obesity, and cardiac diseases. Indeed, the inventors found that thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives of the invention are inhibitors of the Epac protein and can thus be useful for the prevention and/or treatment of diseases wherein the Epac protein is involved. Particularly, the inventors showed that thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives of the invention are potent and non-competitive inhibitors of Epac and demonstrated that they also inhibit the activation of Epac downstream effectors such as Rap1 in cells.
