A series of macrocyclic calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonists identified using structure-based design principles, exemplified by HTL0028016 (1) and HTL0028125 (2), is described. Structural characterization by X-ray crystallography of the interaction of two of the macrocycle antagonists with the CGRP receptor ectodomain is described, along with structure-activity relationships associated with point changes to the macrocyclic antagonists. The identification of non-peptidic/natural product-derived, macrocyclic ligands for a G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) is noteworthy.
