Discovery of EBI-2511: A Highly Potent and Orally Active EZH2 Inhibitor for the Treatment of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: A novel series of benzofuran derived EZH2 inhibitors were discovered through a scaffold hopping approach based on the clinical compound of EPZ-6438. Further rational structure-activity relationship exploration and optimization led to the discovery of more potent EZH2 inhibitors with oral bioavailability in mice and rats. A lead compound EBI-2511 (compound 34) demonstrated excellent in vivo efficacy in Pfeiffer tumor Xenograft models in mouse and is under preclinical development for the treatment of cancers associated with EZH2 mutations.

Discovery of WS-157 as a highly potent, selective and orally active EGFR inhibitor.

Project description:EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) has been used successfully in clinic for the treatment of solid tumors. In the present study, we reported the discovery of WS-157 from our in-house diverse compound library, which was validated to be a potent and selective EGFR-TKI. WS-157 showed excellent inhibitory activities against EGFR (IC50 = 0.81 nmol/L), EGFR[d746-750] (IC50 = 1.2 nmol/L) and EGFR[L858R] (IC50 = 1.1 nmol/L), but was less effective or even inactive against other nine kinases. WS-157 also displayed excellent antiproliferative activities against a panel of human cancer cell lines, and exhibited the ability to reduce colony formation and wound healing the same as gefitinib. We found that WS-157 upon oral administration showed better anti-tumor activity in A431 bearing xenograft mouse models compared to gefitinib. In addition, WS-157 showed better intestinal absorption than gefitinib and had favorable pharmacokinetic properties and microsomal metabolic stability in different species. These studies indicate that WS-157 has strong antitumor activity in vitro and in vivo, and could be used for the development of anti-lung cancer agent targeting EGFR.

Discovery of TAK-272: A Novel, Potent, and Orally Active Renin Inhibitor.

Project description:The aspartic proteinase renin is an attractive target for the treatment of hypertension and cardiovascular/renal disease such as chronic kidney disease and heart failure. We introduced an S1' site binder into the lead compound 1 guided by structure-based drug design (SBDD), and further optimization of physicochemical properties led to the discovery of benzimidazole derivative 10 (1-(4-methoxybutyl)-N-(2-methylpropyl)-N-[(3S,5R)-5-(morpholin-4-yl)carbonylpiperidin-3-yl]-1H-benzimidazole-2-carboxamide hydrochloride, TAK-272) as a highly potent and orally active renin inhibitor. Compound 10 demonstrated good oral bioavailability (BA) and long-lasting efficacy in rats. Compound 10 is currently in clinical trials.

Discovery of Imidazoisoindole Derivatives as Highly Potent and Orally Active Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase Inhibitors.

Project description:A novel series of imidazoisoindoles were identified as potent indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitors. Lead optimization toward improving potency and eliminating CYP inhibition resulted in the discovery of lead compound 25, a highly potent IDO inhibitor with favorable pharmacokinetic properties. In the MC38 xenograft model in hPD-1 transgenic mice, 25 in combination with the anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (SHR-1210) achieved a synergistic antitumor effect superior to each single agent.

Discovery of CJ-2360 as a Potent and Orally Active Inhibitor of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Capable of Achieving Complete Tumor Regression.

Project description:We report herein the discovery of a class of potent small-molecule inhibitors of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) containing a fused indoloquinoline scaffold. The most promising compound CJ-2360 has an IC50 value of 2.2 nM against wild-type ALK and low-nanomolar potency against several clinically reported ALK mutants. This compound is capable of achieving complete tumor regression in the ALK-positive KARPAS-299 xenograft model with oral administration in mice. CJ-2360 represents a promising ALK inhibitor for advanced preclinical development.

Discovery of PF-04457845: A Highly Potent, Orally Bioavailable, and Selective Urea FAAH Inhibitor.

Project description:Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) is an integral membrane serine hydrolase that degrades the fatty acid amide family of signaling lipids, including the endocannabinoid anandamide. Genetic or pharmacological inactivation of FAAH leads to analgesic and anti-inflammatory phenotypes in rodents without showing the undesirable side effects observed with direct cannabinoid receptor agonists, indicating that FAAH may represent an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of inflammatory pain and other nervous system disorders. Herein, we report the discovery and characterization of a highly efficacious and selective FAAH inhibitor PF-04457845 (23). Compound 23 inhibits FAAH by a covalent, irreversible mechanism involving carbamylation of the active-site serine nucleophile of FAAH with high in vitro potency (k(inact)/K(i) and IC(50) values of 40300 M(-1) s(-1) and 7.2 nM, respectively, for human FAAH). Compound 23 has exquisite selectivity for FAAH relative to other members of the serine hydrolase superfamily as demonstrated by competitive activity-based protein profiling. Oral administration of 23 at 0.1 mg/kg results in efficacy comparable to that of naproxen at 10 mg/kg in a rat model of inflammatory pain. Compound 23 is being evaluated in human clinical trials.

Discovery and Characterization of 2-Aminooxazolines as Highly Potent, Selective, and Orally Active TAAR1 Agonists.

Project description:2-Aminooxazolines were discovered as a novel structural class of TAAR1 ligands. Starting from a known adrenergic compound 1, structural modifications were made to obtain highly potent and selective TAAR1 ligands such as 12 (RO5166017), 18 (RO5256390), 36 (RO5203648), and 48 (RO5263397). These compounds exhibit drug-like physicochemical properties, have good oral bioavailability, and display in vivo activity in a variety of animal models relevant for psychiatric diseases and addiction.

EPZ011989, A Potent, Orally-Available EZH2 Inhibitor with Robust in Vivo Activity.

Project description:Inhibitors of the protein methyltransferase Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2) may have significant therapeutic potential for the treatment of B cell lymphomas and other cancer indications. The ability of the scientific community to explore fully the spectrum of EZH2-associated pathobiology has been hampered by the lack of in vivo-active tool compounds for this enzyme. Here we report the discovery and characterization of EPZ011989, a potent, selective, orally bioavailable inhibitor of EZH2 with useful pharmacokinetic properties. EPZ011989 demonstrates significant tumor growth inhibition in a mouse xenograft model of human B cell lymphoma. Hence, this compound represents a powerful tool for the expanded exploration of EZH2 activity in biology.

Discovery of TK-642 as a highly potent, selective, orally bioavailable pyrazolopyrazine-based allosteric SHP2 inhibitor.

Project description:Src homology-2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2) is a promising therapeutic target for cancer therapy. In this work, we presented the structure-guided design of 5,6-fused bicyclic allosteric SHP2 inhibitors, leading to the identification of pyrazolopyrazine-based TK-642 as a highly potent, selective, orally bioavailable allosteric SHP2 inhibitor (SHP2WT IC50 = 2.7 nmol/L) with favorable pharmacokinetic profiles (F = 42.5%; t 1/2 = 2.47 h). Both dual inhibition biochemical assay and docking analysis indicated that TK-642 likely bound to the "tunnel" allosteric site of SHP2. TK-642 could effectively suppress cell proliferation (KYSE-520 cells IC50 = 5.73 μmol/L) and induce apoptosis in esophageal cancer cells by targeting the SHP2-mediated AKT and ERK signaling pathways. Additionally, oral administration of TK-642 also demonstrated effective anti-tumor effects in the KYSE-520 xenograft mouse model, with a T/C value of 83.69%. Collectively, TK-642 may warrant further investigation as a promising lead compound for the treatment of esophageal cancer.
