On the basis of basic screening for novel, more potent antiarthritics VUFB-16066 (4-(2',4'-difluorobiphenyl-4-yl)-2-methyl-4-oxobutanoic acid, CAS 112344-S2-2) was chosen as a compound with pronounced anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects, with good gastric tolerance and relatively low toxicity. VUFB-16066 is a dual cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, and it suppresses alloantigen-driven cellular immune response and phagocytosis of stimulated peritoneal cells. VUFB-16066 exhibits prolonged pharmacological activity connected with its major metabolite having a very long half-life. In the model of adjuvant arthritis VUFB-16066 improves most of disease symptoms including immunopathological disturbances, which indicates possible disease-modifying activity of the drug. The beneficial antiarthritic effect of VUFB-16066 has been also confirmed in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
