Herein, we describe the discovery and optimization of brain-penetrant, orally bioavailable inhibitors of EBP. A structure-based drug design approach from literature compound led to the discovery of a hydantoin-based scaffold, which provided balanced physicochemical properties and potency and an improved safety profile. The long half-lives of early hydantoin-based EBP inhibitors in rodents prompted an unconventional optimization strategy, focused on increasing metabolic turnover while maintaining potency and a brain-penetrant profile. The resulting EBP inhibitor demonstrated strong target engagement in the brain, as illustrated by the accumulation of EBP substrate zymostenol after repeated dosing. Furthermore, compound enhanced the formation of oligodendrocytes in human cortical organoids, providing additional support for our therapeutic hypothesis. | ||||||
