How does the plasma half-life and oral bioavailability change on small structural modifications? Which structural elements are allowed for a drug, and which are interchangeable, without significantly altering the PK properties? How can the oral bioavailability and half-life of a lead be increased? Questions of this type, critical to every small molecule drug development program, are addressed herein. The tables contain most drugs for which human PK data have been reported. Some compounds in clinical development or with animal PK data only have also been included. The compounds listed include currently available drugs, withdrawn drugs, and compounds that failed during clinical trials. Compounds are arranged by keeping structurally closely related drugs together, to show variations of PK properties on minimal structural modification. This kind of information should be particularly valuable for medicinal chemists in their endeavor to improve the PK of their leads. PK data are no natural constants inherent to a compound, such as its melting point or density, but depend on the sex, age, and condition of the patient, his diet, the dose of the drug, and the hour at which the measurement is performed. In a typical study with 5–10 healthy volunteers, half-life and oral bioavailability may show strong interindividual variations. Even for a single patient, PK properties of a drug will change with each new dosing. Thus, the establishment of a true PK SAR (structure activity relationship) for drugs would require PK data obtained from huge groups of people. Understandably, such information is not available. The accuracy of compound quantization in plasma and thus the quality of PK data has increased dramatically in recent years.
