BAY-678 is a novel, potent, orally bioavailable, selective and cell-permeable inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase (HNE) with an IC50 of 20 nM. Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) is a key protease for matrix degradation. High HNE activity is observed in inflammatory diseases. Accordingly, HNE is a potential target for the treatment of pulmonary diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), acute lung injury (ALI), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), bronchiectasis (BE), and pulmonary hypertension (PH). HNE inhibitors should reestablish the protease-anti-protease balance. BAY-678 is also nominated as a chemical probe to the public via the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC). BAY-678 has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile. The cell based activity of BAY-678 on HNE is not relevant and has not been measured. Efficacy was demonstrated in acute in vivo models, for example, protease-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice, where exogenous HNE in the mouse lung was inhibited with Ki = 15 nM after oral administration.
| Targets |
With an IC50 of 20 nM, BAY-678 is a powerful, selective, cell-permeable, and orally accessible inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase (HNE). For MNE, BAY-678 has a Ki value of 700 nM. A fourth-generation HNE inhibitor is BAY-678 [1]. Through the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC), BAY-678 has also been proposed to the general public as a chemical probe [2]. A panel of 21 serine proteases is more than 2,000 times more selectively inhibited by BAY-678 [3].

BAY-678 inhibits human neutrophil elastase (HNE) with an IC50 of 20 nM in a biochemical assay using the isolated enzyme and the fluorogenic peptide substrate MeOSuc-AAPV-AMC [1]. It exhibits high selectivity, showing no inhibition against a panel of 21 related serine proteases (including porcine pancreatic elastase, PPE) at concentrations up to 30 µM [1]. The compound showed minimal inhibition against human cytochrome P450 isoforms CYP2C9 and CYP3A4, with IC50 values > 50 µM [1]. |
| ln Vivo |
In preclinical models of ALI and emphysema, BAY-678 (17) demonstrated notable effectiveness, indicating its anti-inflammatory and anti-remodeling mechanism of action. Additionally, in rat and mouse models of PAH, BAY-678 (17) demonstrated noteworthy positive effects on pulmonary hemodynamics and vascular effects [2].

| Enzyme Assay |
The inhibitory capacity of BAY-678 against HNE was assessed using a functional biochemical assay with the isolated enzyme. Enzyme activity was measured at pH 7.4 in the presence or absence of various compound concentrations using a suitable fluorogenic peptide substrate (MeOSuc-AAPV-AMC). IC50 values were derived from the enzyme activity data [1].
To determine the inhibition constant (Ki), enzyme reaction velocities were measured with different substrate concentrations at various inhibitor concentrations. Ki values were extrapolated from Dixon plots, confirming a competitive inhibition mechanism [1]. The binding kinetics (on-rate, kon) were determined using a functional biochemical assay with a substrate containing a modified fluorescent label (MeOSuc-AAPV-umbelliferyl). This allowed sensitive detection of substrate hydrolysis on a millisecond timescale in the presence or absence of the inhibitor. The observed rate constant for the onset of inhibition (kobs) was obtained via nonlinear regression of reaction progress curves and plotted against inhibitor concentration. The slope of the linear regression provided the estimated kon value [1]. |
| Animal Protocol |
The pharmacokinetic profile of BAY-678 was studied in rats. The compound was administered intravenously (0.25–2 hour infusion) and orally (by gavage) at a dose of 0.3 mg kg⁻¹. The vehicle used was a mixture of ethanol, PEG400, and water. Plasma samples were collected to determine pharmacokinetic parameters [1].
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
In rats, the total plasma clearance (CL) of BAY-678 was 2.0 L h⁻¹ kg⁻¹, and the apparent steady-state volume of distribution (Vss) was 3.9 L kg⁻¹. The terminal half-life (t₁/₂) was 1.3 hours. The oral bioavailability (F) was 83% [1].
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
BAY-678 did not show any inhibitory effect on human CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 isoenzymes at concentrations up to 50 µM, suggesting that it is less likely to undergo cytochrome P450-mediated drug interactions [1].

| Additional Infomation |
BAY-678 (compound 20 in the paper) is a 1,4-dihydropyrimidinone derivative that was discovered during the optimization of a novel HNE inhibitor series. It was selected as a chemical probe candidate due to its balanced properties in terms of polarity, potency (IC50 for HNE = 20 nM) and selectivity for related serine proteases and CYP isoenzymes. It is a reversible competitive inhibitor of HNE. The study mentions that it was used for in-depth in vitro and in vivo characterization, but did not show detailed efficacy results, instead focusing on the optimized clinical candidate BAY 85-8501 [1].
