AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing rapamycin-based therapies fail to selectively inhibit mTORC1 without affecting mTORC2, leading to undesirable side effects and metabolic dysregulation.
Method used
Development of novel rapamycin analogs with specific modifications at the C-7 position that selectively inhibit mTORC1 over extended periods without affecting mTORC2, improving solubility and pharmacokinetics.
Benefits of technology
These analogs effectively inhibit mTORC1 while sparing mTORC2, offering potential therapeutic benefits with reduced side effects and improved metabolic regulation.

Abstract
To provide a compound useful for modulating mTORC1 activity.SOLUTION: A novel rapamycin analog is provided which is represented by, for example, the following formula (II). Unlike rapamycin and everolimus, a compound of the invention does not inhibit pAKT for a relatively long period of time (for example, 24 hours and 48 hours). The compound of the invention also shows improved solubility and improved pharmacokinetics than rapamycin.SELECTED DRAWING: None
