Discovery of Novel Pyrido-pyridazinone Derivatives as FER Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors with Antitumor Activity.

ABSTRACT: To obtain a new anticancer drug, we focused on FER tyrosine kinase. Starting with high-throughput screening with our in-house chemical library, compound 1, which has a pyridine moiety, was found. Referring to their X-ray crystal structure with FES proto-oncogene tyrosine kinase, as a surrogate of FER followed by chemical modification including scaffold hopping of the pyridine template, we discovered pyrido-pyridazinone derivatives with potent FER kinase inhibitory activity. Here, we disclose the structure-activity relationship on the scaffold and representative compound 21 (DS21360717), which showed in vivo antitumor efficacy in a subcutaneous tumor model.

Icotinib derivatives as tyrosine kinase inhibitors with anti-esophageal squamous carcinoma activity.

Project description:Previous report showed that a variety of icotinib derivatives bearing different 1,2,3-triazole moieties, which could be readily prepared via copper (I)-catalyzed cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction between icotinib and different azides, exhibited interesting activity against different lung cancer cell lines such as H460, H1975, H1299, A549 or PC-9. To further expand the application scope of the compounds and to validate the function of triazole groups in drug design, the anti-cancer activity of these compounds against esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESCC) cells was tested herein. Preliminary MTT experiments suggested that these compounds were active against different ESCC cell lines such as KYSE70, KYSE410, or KYSE450 as well as their drug-resistant ones. Especially, compound 3l showed interesting anticancer activity against these cell lines. The mode of action was studied via molecular docking, SPR experiments and other biochemical studies, and 3l exhibited higher binding potential to wild-type EGFR than icotinib did. In vivo anticancer study showed that 3l could inhibit tumor growth of cell-line-derived xenografts in ESCC. Study also suggested that 3l was a potent inhibitor for EGFR-TK pathway. Combining these results, 3l represents a promising lead compound for the design of anti-cancer drugs against ESCC.

Discovery of Pyridazinone and Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine Inhibitors of C-Terminal Src Kinase.

Project description:C-terminal Src kinase (CSK) functions as a negative regulator of T cell activation through inhibitory phosphorylation of LCK, so inhibitors of CSK are of interest as potential immuno-oncology agents. Screening of an internal kinase inhibitor collection identified pyridazinone lead 1, and a series of modifications led to optimized compound 13. Compound 13 showed potent activity in biochemical and cellular assays in vitro and demonstrated the ability to increase T cell proliferation induced by T cell receptor signaling. Compound 13 gave extended exposure in mice upon oral dosing and produced a functional response (decrease in LCK phosphorylation) in mouse spleens at 6 h post dose.

Synthesis, Molecular Dynamics Simulation, and <i>In-vitro</i> Antitumor Activity of Quinazoline-2,4,6-triamine Derivatives as Novel EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors.

Project description:BackgroundDeveloping a potent and safe scaffold is challenging in anti-cancer drug discovery.ObjectivesThe study focused on developing novel series of compounds based on the inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFR-TK) as one of the most promising compounds in cancer therapy.MethodsIn this study, a novel series of quinazoline-2,4,6-triamine derivatives were designed and synthesized through intramolecular C-H activation reaction of para-nitro aniline, trichloroacetonitrile, and isocyanides employing a one-pot reaction.ResultsThe in-vitro antitumor activities of the compounds which showed acceptable inhibitory effects were investigated against breast (MCF-7), lung (A-549), and colon (HT-29) cancer cell lines by employing MTT assay. All compounds had the most negligible cytotoxicity toward normal fibroblast human cell lines. Based on structural and thermodynamics analysis results, it was found that Met 769 is a key residue in interaction with all inhibitors through the formation of hydrogen bonds with high occupancies with the amine group on the quinazoline ring of inhibitors. Also, there was a good consistency between calculated ΔG binding and experimental IC50 values of compounds 10d, 10e, and erlotinib.ConclusionsCompound 10e had an extensive range of antitumor activity on three diverse cell lines comparable with erlotinib and doxorubicin reference drugs. Also, compound 10d showed selective cytotoxicity against cancerous lung cells (A-549). On the other side, computational studies confirmed that Met 769 is a crucial residue in interaction with all inhibitors.

Discovery of 5-Phenoxy-2-aminopyridine Derivatives as Potent and Selective Irreversible Inhibitors of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase.

Project description:As a member of the tyrosine protein kinase Tec (TEC) family, Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is considered a promising therapeutic target due to its crucial roles in the B cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway. Although many types of BTK inhibitors have been reported, there is an unmet need to achieve selective BTK inhibitors to reduce side effects. To obtain BTK selectivity and efficacy, we designed a novel series of type II BTK inhibitors which can occupy the allosteric pocket induced by the DFG-out conformation and introduced an electrophilic warhead for targeting Cys481. In this article, we have described the structure-activity relationships (SARs) leading to a novel series of potent and selective piperazine and tetrahydroisoquinoline linked 5-phenoxy-2-aminopyridine irreversible inhibitors of BTK. Compound 18g showed good potency and selectivity, and its biological activity was evaluated in hematological tumor cell lines. The in vivo efficacy of 18g was also tested in a Raji xenograft mouse model, and it significantly reduced tumor size, with 46.8% inhibition compared with vehicle. Therefore, we have presented the novel, potent, and selective irreversible inhibitor 18g as a type II BTK inhibitor.

FER tyrosine kinase (FER) overexpression mediates resistance to quinacrine through EGF-dependent activation of NF-kappaB.

Project description:Quinacrine, a drug with antimalarial and anticancer activities that inhibits NF-?B and activates p53, has progressed into phase II clinical trials in cancer. To further elucidate its mechanism of action and identify pathways of drug resistance, we used an unbiased method for validation-based insertional mutagenesis to isolate a quinacrine-resistant cell line in which an inserted CMV promoter drives overexpression of the FER tyrosine kinase (FER). Overexpression of FER from a cDNA confers quinacrine resistance to several different types of cancer cell lines. We show that quinacrine kills cancer cells primarily by inhibiting the activation of NF-?B and that increased activation of NF-?B through FER overexpression mediates resistance. EGF activates NF-?B and stimulates phosphorylation of FER, EGF receptor (EGFR), and ERK p42/p44, and decreased expression of FER or inhibition of ERK phosphorylation inhibits the EGF-induced activation of NF-?B. FER binds to EGFR, and overexpression of FER in cells untreated with EGF increases this association, leading to increased phosphorylation of EGFR and ERK. We conclude that FER is on a pathway connecting EGFR to NF-?B activation and that this function is responsible for FER-dependent resistance to quinacrine.

Cheminfomatic-based Drug Discovery of Human Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors.

Project description:Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs) are essential components for regulating cell-cell signaling and communication events in cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, survival and metabolism. Deregulation of RTKs and their associated signaling pathways can lead to a wide variety of human diseases such as immunodeficiency, diabetes, arterosclerosis, psoriasis and cancer. Thus RTKs have become one of the most important drug targets families in recent decade. Pharmaceutical companies have dedicated their research efforts towards the discovery of small-molecule inhibitors of RTKs, many of which had been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) or are currently in clinical trials. The great successes in the development of small-molecule inhibitors of RTKs are largely attributed to the use of modern cheminformatic approaches to identifying lead scaffolds. Those include the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) modeling, as well as the structure-, and ligand-based pharmacophore modeling techniques in this case. Herein we inspected the literature thoroughly in an effort to conduct a comparative analysis of major findings regarding the essential structure-activity relationships (SARs)/pharmacophore features of known active RTK inhibitors, most of which were collected from cheminformatic modeling approaches.

Discovery of Tricyclic Pyranochromenone as Novel Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors with in Vivo Antirheumatic Activity.

Project description:Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is an attractive target for treating patients with B cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Many BTK inhibitors have been identified; however, like other kinase inhibitors, they lack diversity in their core structures. Therefore, it is important to secure a novel scaffold that occupies the adenine-binding site of BTK. We screened an in-house library of natural products and their analogs via a biochemical assay to identify a novel scaffold for targeting BTK. A pyranochromenone scaffold, derived from a natural active component decursin, was found to be effective at targeting BTK and was selected for further optimization. A series of pyranochromenone analogs was synthesized through the modification of pyranochromenone at the C7 position. Pyranochromenone compounds with an electrophilic warhead exhibited promising BTK inhibitory activity, with IC50 values in the range of 0.5-0.9 µM. A docking study of the representative compound 8 provided a reasonable explanation for compound activity. Compound 8 demonstrated good selectivity over other associated kinases and decreased the production of proinflammatory cytokines in THP cells. Moreover, compound 8 presented significant in vivo efficacy in a murine model of collagen-induced arthritis.

Discovery and biological evaluation of N5-substituted 6,7-dioxo-6,7-dihydropteridine derivatives as potent Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Project description:Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays a critical role in B cell receptor (BCR)-mediated signaling pathways responsible for the development and function of B cells, which makes it an attractive target for the treatment of many types of B-cell malignancies. Herein, a series of N5-substituted 6,7-dioxo-6,7-dihydropteridine-based, irreversible BTK inhibitors were reported with IC50 values ranging from 1.9 to 236.6 nM in the enzymatic inhibition assay. Compounds 6 and 7 significantly inhibited the proliferation of Ramos cells which overexpress the BTK enzyme, as well as the autophosphorylation of BTK at Tyr223 and the activation of its downstream signaling molecule PLCγ2. Overall, this series of compounds could provide a promising starting point for further development of potent BTK inhibitors for B-cell malignancy treatment.
