Comment: Linrodostat (BMS-986205) is a potent and selective, orally available indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) inhibitor [3], being investigated as an immuno-therapeutic for various malignancies. The INN for linrodostat specifies the (R) stereoisomer. The chemical structure is claimed as example 19 in Flexus Bioscience's patent US2016137652 [1] and the compound is being taken through clinical development by Bristol-Myers Squibb. Mechanistically, linrodostat competes with the heme cofactor for binding to the apo-form of the enzyme, and once bound prevents heme from rebinding [3].
