Discovery of novel coumarin derivatives as potent and orally bioavailable BRD4 inhibitors based on scaffold hopping.

ABSTRACT: The bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) bromodomains, particularly BRD4, have been identified as promising therapeutic targets in the treatment of many human disorders such as cancer, inflammation, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. Recently, the discovery of novel BRD4 inhibitors has garnered substantial interest. Starting from scaffold hopping of the reported compound dihydroquinazolinone (PFI-1), a series of coumarin derivatives were designed and synthesised as a new chemotype of BRD4 inhibitors. Interestingly, the representative compounds 13 exhibited potent BRD4 binding affinity and cell proliferation inhibitory activity, and especially displayed a favourable PK profile with high oral bioavailability (F?=?49.38%) and metabolic stability (T1/2?=?4.2?h), meaningfully making it as a promising lead compound for further drug development.

Discovery of Pyridinyl Acetamide Derivatives as Potent, Selective, and Orally Bioavailable Porcupine Inhibitors.

Project description:Blockade of aberrant Wnt signaling is an attractive therapeutic approach in multiple cancers. We developed and performed a cellular high-throughput screen for inhibitors of Wnt secretion and pathway activation. A lead structure (GNF-1331) was identified from the screen. Further studies identified the molecular target of GNF-1331 as Porcupine, a membrane bound O-acyl transferase. Structure-activity relationship studies led to the discovery of a novel series of potent and selective Porcupine inhibitors. Compound 19, GNF-6231, demonstrated excellent pathway inhibition and induced robust antitumor efficacy in a mouse MMTV-WNT1 xenograft tumor model.

Discovery of Potent, Orally Bioavailable Inhibitors of Human Cytomegalovirus.

Project description:A high-throughput screen based on a viral replication assay was used to identify inhibitors of the human cytomegalovirus. Using this approach, hit compound 1 was identified as a 4 ?M inhibitor of HCMV that was specific and selective over other herpes viruses. Time of addition studies indicated compound 1 exerted its antiviral effect early in the viral life cycle. Mechanism of action studies also revealed that this series inhibited infection of MRC-5 and ARPE19 cells by free virus and via direct cell-to-cell spread from infected to uninfected cells. Preliminary structure-activity relationships demonstrated that the potency of compound 1 could be improved to a low nanomolar level, but metabolic stability was a key optimization parameter for this series. A strategy focused on minimizing metabolic hydrolysis of the N1-amide led to an alternative scaffold in this series with improved metabolic stability and good pharmacokinetic parameters in rat.

Discovery of <i>N</i>-Cyano-sulfoximineurea Derivatives as Potent and Orally Bioavailable NLRP3 Inflammasome Inhibitors.

Project description:NLRP3 inflammasome mediated release of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has been implicated in various diseases. In this study, rationally designed mimics of sulfonylurea moiety were investigated as NLRP3 inhibitors. Our results culminated into discovery of series of unprecedented N-cyano sulfoximineurea derivatives as potent NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors. Compound 15 (IC50 = 7 nM) and analogues were found to be highly potent and selective NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor with good pharmacokinetic profile. These effects translate in vivo, as 15, 29, and 34 significantly inhibit NLRP3 dependent IL-1β secretion in mice.

Discovery of Potent, Orally Bioavailable Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Transporter (Spns2) Inhibitors.

Project description:Targeting the S1P pathway has resulted in the development of S1P1 receptor modulators for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis. We hypothesize that targeting an upstream node of the S1P pathway may provide an improved adverse event profile. In this report, we performed a structure-activity relationship study focusing on the benzoxazole scaffold in SLB1122168, which lead to the discovery of 11i (SLF80821178) as a potent inhibitor of S1P release from HeLa cells (IC50: 51 ± 3 nM). Administration of SLF80821178 to mice induced ∼50% reduction in circulating lymphocyte counts, recapitulating the lymphopenia characteristic of Spns2 null animals. Molecular modeling studies suggest that SLF80821178 binds Spns2 in its occluded inward-facing state and forms hydrogen bonds with Asn112 and Ser211 and π stacking with Phe234. Taken together, SLF80821178 can serve as a scaffold for future inhibitor development and represents a chemical tool to study the therapeutic implication of inhibiting Spns2.

Thiophene-Pyrazolourea Derivatives as Potent, Orally Bioavailable, and Isoform-Selective JNK3 Inhibitors.

Project description:Potent JNK3 isoform selective inhibitors were developed from a thiophenyl-pyrazolourea scaffold. Through structure activity relationship (SAR) studies utilizing enzymatic and cell-based assays, and in vitro and in vivo drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic (DMPK) studies, potent and highly selective JNK3 inhibitors with oral bioavailability and brain penetrant capability were developed. Inhibitor 17 was a potent and isoform selective JNK3 inhibitor (IC50 = 35 nM), had significant inhibition to only JNK3 in a panel profiling of 374 wild-type kinases, had high potency in functional cell-based assays, had high stability in human liver microsome (t 1/2 = 66 min) and a clean CYP-450 inhibition profile, and was orally bioavailable and brain penetrant. Moreover, cocrystal structures of compounds 17 and 27 in human JNK3 were solved at 1.84 Å, which showed that these JNK3 isoform selective inhibitors bound to the ATP pocket, had interactions in both hydrophobic pocket-I and hydrophobic pocket-II.

Orally bioavailable potent soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors.

Project description:A series of N,N'-disubstituted ureas having a conformationally restricted cis- or trans-1,4-cyclohexane alpha to the urea were prepared and tested as soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors. This series of compounds showed low nanomolar to picomolar activities against recombinant human sEH. Both isomers showed similar potencies, but the trans isomers were more metabolically stable in human hepatic microsomes. Furthermore, these new potent inhibitors show a greater metabolic stability in vivo than previously described sEH inhibitors. We demonstrated that trans-4-[4-(3-adamantan-1-ylureido)cyclohexyloxy]benzoic acid 13g (t-AUCB, IC50 = 1.3 +/- 0.05 nM) had excellent oral bioavailability (98%, n = 2) and blood area under the curve in dogs and was effective in vivo to treat hypotension in lipopolysaccharide challenged murine models.

Discovery of <i>O</i>-Alkylamino Tethered Niclosamide Derivatives as Potent and Orally Bioavailable Anticancer Agents.

Project description:Niclosamide has been identified to potently inhibit the activation, nuclear translocation, and transactivation of STAT3. Nevertheless, the poor aqueous solubility and bioavailability of niclosamide has hindered its further clinical development for cancer therapy. To discover new molecules with enhanced drug-like properties, a series of novel O-alkylamino tethered derivatives of niclosamide have been designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated. Among them, compound 11 (HJC0152) has been demonstrated to significantly suppress MDA-MB-231 xenograft tumor growth in vivo (i.p. & p.o.), indicating its great potential as efficacious and orally bioavailable therapeutics for human cancer.

Discovery of Novel 3,3-Disubstituted Piperidines as Orally Bioavailable, Potent, and Efficacious HDM2-p53 Inhibitors.

Project description:A new subseries of substituted piperidines as p53-HDM2 inhibitors exemplified by 21 has been developed from the initial lead 1. Research focused on optimization of a crucial HDM2 Trp23-ligand interaction led to the identification of 2-(trifluoromethyl)thiophene as the preferred moiety. Further investigation of the Leu26 pocket resulted in potent, novel substituted piperidine inhibitors of the HDM2-p53 interaction that demonstrated tumor regression in several human cancer xenograft models in mice. The structure of HDM2 in complex with inhibitors 3, 10, and 21 is described.
