Many non-<wbr></wbr>steroidal anti-<wbr></wbr>inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are potent but non-<wbr></wbr>selective inhibitors of both COX-<wbr></wbr>1 and COX-<wbr></wbr>2 in humans. CAY10404 is one of the most selective inhibitors of COX-<wbr></wbr>2 which has been reported to date, with a selectivity index (SI; SI = IC50 COX-<wbr></wbr>1/IC50 COX-<wbr></wbr>2) of >500,000. (The COX-<wbr></wbr>1 IC50 is >500 mM, and COX-<wbr></wbr>2 IC50 is <1 nM.) As a reference point, the SI of celecoxib is about 400. Thus, CAY10404 has an SI which is several logs greater than the first generation of selective COX-<wbr></wbr>2 inhibitors, and is comparable to the SI of second generation selective COX-<wbr></wbr>2 inhibitors, such as valdecoxib and etoricoxib.
