Comment: Pelubiprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory type compound [6]. Structurally it is an aryl propionic acid derivative, like ibuprofen. The INN-defined agent is a racemic mixture of enantiomers. We show the structure without specified stereochemistry to represent the mixture. Pelubiprofen is described as a prodrug of 2-arylpropionic acid with modest selectivity for COX2 [3].

2D Structure

An image of the ligand's 2D structure. For small molecules with SMILES these are drawn using the NCI/CADD Chemical Identifier Resolver. Click on the image to access the chemical structure search tool with the ligand pre-loaded in the structure editor. For other types of ligands, e.g. longer nucleotides and peptides, a manually drawn representation of the molecule may be provided.

Physico-chemical Properties

Calculated molecular properties are available for small molecules and natural products (not peptides). Properties were generated using the CDK toolkit. All properties were selected to enable the prediction of the Lipinski Rule-of-Five profile or ‘druglikeness’ for each ligand. For more info on each category see the help pages.

SMILES / InChI / InChIKey

SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) A specification for unambiguously describing the structure of chemical molecules using short ASCII strings. Canonical SMILES specify a unique representation of the 2D structure without chiral or isotopic specifications. Isomeric SMILES include chiral specification and isotopes.

Standard InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey InChI is a non-proprietary, standard, textual identifier for chemical substances designed to facilitate linking of information and database searching. An InChIKey is a simplified version of a full InChI, designed for easier web searching.

Immunopharmacology Comments
Whilst the main mechanism of action of pelubiprofen is inhibition of the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes which produce pro-inflammatory mediators such as PGE2, it is also reported to inhibit the inflammatory TAK1-IKK-NF-κB pathway [5].

 Results from a Phase 3 clinical trial that compared 6 weeks treatment with pelubiprofen to celecoxib treatment, indicate that this novel drug is as effecive as the comparator. However, patients given pelubiprofen suffered more gastrointestinal adverse effects than did the celecoxib cohort. 3
