The SAR of a series of sterically hindered sulfonamide hydroxamic acids with relatively large
P1′ groups is described. The compounds typically spare MMP-1 while being potent
inhibitors of MMP-13. The metabolically more stable compounds in the series contain either
a monocyclic or bicyclic pyran ring adjacent to the hydroxamate group. Despite the sparing
of MMP-1, pre-clinical and clinical studies revealed that fibrosis in rats and MSS in humans
is still produced.
