Discovery of a Novel Series of Thienopyrimidine as Highly Potent and Selective PI3K Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway provides a promising new approach for cancer therapy. Through a rational design, a novel series of thienopyrimidine was discovered as highly potent and selective PI3K inhibitors. These thienopyrimidine derivatives were demonstrated to bear nanomolar PI3K? inhibitory potency with over 100-fold selectivity against mTOR kinase. The lead compounds 6g and 6k showed good developability profiles in cell-based proliferation and ADME assays. In this communication, their design, synthesis, structure-activity relationship, selectivity, and some developability properties are described.

Discovery of a Novel Series of Potent and Selective Alkynylthiazole-Derived PI3Kγ Inhibitors.

Project description:Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are a family of enzymes that control a wide variety of cellular functions such as cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, motility, survival, and intracellular trafficking. PI3Kγ plays a critical role in mediating leukocyte chemotaxis as well as mast cell degranulation, making it a potentially interesting target for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. We previously disclosed a novel series of PI3Kγ inhibitors derived from a benzothiazole core. The truncation of the benzothiazole core led to the discovery of a structurally diverse alkynyl thiazole series which displayed high PI3Kγ potency and subtype selectivity. Further medicinal chemistry optimization of the alkynyl thiazole series led to identification of compounds such as 14 and 32, highly potent, subtype selective, and CNS penetrant PI3Kγ inhibitors. Compound 14 showed robust inhibition of PI3Kγ mediated neutrophil migration in vivo.

Discovery of a Novel Series of 7-Azaindole Scaffold Derivatives as PI3K Inhibitors with Potent Activity.

Project description:The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors potently inhibit the signaling pathway of PI3K/AKT/mTOR, which provides a promising new approach for the molecularly targeted cancer therapy. In this work, a novel series of 7-azaindole scaffold derivatives was discovered by the fragment-based growing strategy. The structure-activity relationship profiles identified that the 7-azaindole scaffold derivatives exhibit potent activity against PI3K at molecular and cellular levels as well as cell proliferation in a panel of human tumor cells.

Discovery of a Series of 3-Cinnoline Carboxamides as Orally Bioavailable, Highly Potent, and Selective ATM Inhibitors.

Project description:We report the discovery of a novel series of 3-cinnoline carboxamides as highly potent and selective ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase inhibitors. Optimization of this series focusing on potency and physicochemical properties (especially permeability) led to the identification of compound 21, a highly potent ATM inhibitor (ATM cell IC50 0.0028 ?M) with excellent kinase selectivity and favorable physicochemical and pharmacokinetics properties. In vivo, 21 in combination with irinotecan showed tumor regression in the SW620 colorectal tumor xenograft model, superior inhibition to irinotecan alone. Compound 21 was selected for preclinical evaluation alongside AZD0156.

Discovery of a Novel 2,6-Disubstituted Glucosamine Series of Potent and Selective Hexokinase 2 Inhibitors.

Project description:A novel series of potent and selective hexokinase 2 (HK2) inhibitors, 2,6-disubstituted glucosamines, has been identified based on HTS hits, exemplified by compound 1. Inhibitor-bound crystal structures revealed that the HK2 enzyme could adopt an "induced-fit" conformation. The SAR study led to the identification of potent HK2 inhibitors, such as compound 34 with greater than 100-fold selectivity over HK1. Compound 25 inhibits in situ glycolysis in a UM-UC-3 bladder tumor cell line via (13)CNMR measurement of [3-(13)C]lactate produced from [1,6-(13)C2]glucose added to the cell culture.

Highly Selective and Potent Thiophenes as PI3K Inhibitors with Oral Antitumor Activity.

Project description:Highly selective PI3K inhibitors with subnanomolar PI3K? potency and greater than 7000-fold selectivity against mTOR kinase were discovered through structure-based drug design (SBDD). These tetra-substituted thiophenes were also demonstrated to have good in vitro cellular potency and good in vivo oral antitumor activity in a mouse PI3K driven NCI-H1975 xenograft tumor model. Compounds with the desired human PK predictions and good in vitro ADMET properties were also identified. In this communication, we describe the rationale behind the installation of a critical triazole moiety to maintain the intricate H-bonding network within the PI3K receptor leading to both better potency and selectivity. Furthermore, optimization of the C-4 phenyl group was exploited to maximize the compounds mTOR selectivity.

Discovery and Pharmacological Characterization of Novel Quinazoline-Based PI3K Delta-Selective Inhibitors.

Project description:Inhibition of the lipid kinase PI3K? is a promising principle to treat B and T cell driven inflammatory diseases. Using a scaffold deconstruction-reconstruction strategy, we identified 4-aryl quinazolines that were optimized into potent PI3K? isoform selective analogues with good pharmacokinetic properties. With compound 11, we illustrate that biochemical PI3K? inhibition translates into modulation of isoform-dependent immune cell function (human, rat, and mouse). After oral administration of compound 11 to rats, proximal PD markers are inhibited, and dose-dependent efficacy in a mechanistic plaque forming cell assay could be demonstrated.

Project description:Three series of novel thienopyrimidine derivatives 9a-l, 15a-l, and 18a-h were designed and synthesized, and their IC50 values against four cancer cell lines HepG-2, A549, PC-3, and MCF-7 were evaluated. Most compounds show moderate cytotoxicity against the tested cancer cell lines. The most promising compound 9a showed moderate activity with IC50 values of 12.32 ± 0.96, 11.30 ± 1.19, 14.69 ± 1.32, and 9.80 ± 0.93 µM, respectively. The inhibitory activities of compounds 9a and 15a against PI3K? and mTOR kinase were further evaluated. Compound 9a exhibited PI3K? kinase inhibitory activity with IC50 of 9.47 ± 0.63 µM. In addition, docking studies of compounds 9a and 15a were also investigated.

Discovery of a Novel Series of Potent, Selective, Orally Available, and Brain-Penetrable C1s Inhibitors for Modulation of the Complement Pathway.

Project description:A novel series of non-amidine-based C1s inhibitors have been explored. Starting from high-throughput screening hit 3, isoquinoline was replaced with 1-aminophthalazine to enhance C1s inhibitory activity while exhibiting good selectivity against other serine proteases. We first disclose a crystal structure of a complex of C1s and a small-molecule inhibitor (4e), which guided structure-based optimization around the S2 and S3 sites to further enhance C1s inhibitory activity by over 300-fold. Improvement of membrane permeability by incorporation of fluorine at the 8-position of 1-aminophthalazine led to identification of (R)-8 as a potent, selective, orally available, and brain-penetrable C1s inhibitor. (R)-8 significantly inhibited membrane attack complex formation induced by human serum in a dose-dependent manner in an in vitro assay system, proving that selective C1s inhibition blocked the classical complement pathway effectively. As a result, (R)-8 emerged as a valuable tool compound for both in vitro and in vivo assessment.

Discovery of highly potent and selective inhibitors of neuronal nitric oxide synthase by fragment hopping.

Project description:Selective inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) has been shown to prevent brain injury and is important for the treatment of various neurodegenerative disorders. This study shows that not only greater inhibitory potency and isozyme selectivity but more druglike properties can be achieved by fragment hopping. On the basis of the structure of lead molecule 6, fragment hopping effectively extracted the minimal pharmacophoric elements in the active site of nNOS for ligand hydrophobic and steric interactions and generated appropriate lipophilic fragments for lead optimization. More potent and selective inhibitors with better druglike properties were obtained within the design of 20 derivatives (compounds 7-26). Our structure-based inhibitor design for nNOS and SAR analysis reveal the robustness and efficiency of fragment hopping in lead discovery and structural optimization, which implicates a broad application of this approach to many other therapeutic targets for which known druglike small-molecule modulators are still limited.
