Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic and lethal lung disease associated with fibroblast activation, myoblast proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition. SKLB-YTH-60 was developed through computer-aided drug design, de novo synthesis and high-throughput screening. YTH-60 has obvious anti©\proliferative activity on fibroblasts and A549 cells. YTH-60 has an acceptable oral bioavailability and appropriate eliminated half-life time.  The in vivo pharmacokinetic study of YTH©\60 was performed by Medicilon.
