Extensive medicinal chemistry and iterative structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies to evaluate potency, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties resulted in the identification of N-(2,4-di-tert-butyl-5-hydroxyphenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxamide (VX-770, 48, ivacaftor), an investigational drug candidate approved by the FDA for the treatment of CF patients 6 years of age and older carrying the G551D mutation. 备注: 囊胞性纤维症CF是由于特定跨膜电导调节蛋白(CFTR)缺陷或不足导致的。CFTR是由PKA调节的阴离子通道。 2. Lead Optimization and Modulation of hERG Activity in a Series of Aminooxazoline Xanthene β-Site Amyloid Precursor Protein Cleaving Enzyme (BACE1) Inhibitors 公司/组织:Amgen 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:β位淀粉样前蛋白裂解酶(BACE1)抑制剂 摘要原文: The optimization of a series of aminooxazoline xanthene inhibitors of β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is described. An early lead compound showed robust Aβ lowering activity in a rat pharmacodynamic model, but advancement was precluded by a low therapeutic window to QTc prolongation in cardiovascular models consistent with in vitro activity on the hERG ion channel. While the introduction of polar groups was effective in reducing hERG binding affinity, this came at the expense of higher than desired Pgp-mediated efflux. A balance of low Pgp efflux and hERG activity was achieved by lowering the polar surface area of the P3 substituent while retaining polarity in the P2′ side chain. The introduction of a fluorine in position 4 of the xanthene ring improved BACE1 potency (5–10-fold). The combination of these optimized fragments resulted in identification of compound 40, which showed robust Aβ reduction in a rat pharmacodynamic model (78% Aβ reduction in CSF at 10 mg/kg po) and also showed acceptable cardiovascular safety in vivo. 备注: 与阿尔兹海默症相关。 3. Inhibitors of β-Site Amyloid Precursor Protein Cleaving Enzyme (BACE1): Identification of (S)-7-(2-Fluoropyridin-3-yl)-3-((3-methyloxetan-3-yl)ethynyl)-5′H-spiro[chromeno[2,3-b]pyridine-5,4′-oxazol]-2′-amine (AMG-8718) J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 9811–9831 DOI: 10.1021/jm5012676 公司/组织:Amgen 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:β位淀粉样前蛋白裂解酶(BACE1)抑制剂 摘要原文: We have previously shown that the aminooxazoline xanthene scaffold can generate potent and orally efficacious BACE1 inhibitors although certain of these compounds exhibited potential hERG liabilities. In this article, we describe 4-aza substitution on the xanthene core as a means to increase BACE1 potency while reducing hERG binding affinity. Further optimization of the P3 and P2′ side chains resulted in the identification of 42 (AMG-8718), a compound with a balanced profile of BACE1 potency, hERG binding affinity, and Pgp recognition. This compound produced robust and sustained reductions of CSF and brain Aβ levels in a rat pharmacodynamic model and exhibited significantly reduced potential for QTc elongation in a cardiovascular safety model. 备注: 4. Discovery of 2-(Cyclopentylamino)thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one Derivatives as a New Series of Potent Phosphodiesterase 7 Inhibitors J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 9844–9854 DOI: 10.1021/jm5008215 公司/组织:Kaken Pharmaceutical Co. 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:磷酸二酯酶7(PDE7)抑制剂 摘要原文: The discovery of a new series of potent phosphodiesterase 7 (PDE7) inhibitors is described. Novel thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one hit compounds were identified from our chemical library. Preliminary modifications of the hit compounds were performed, resulting in the discovery of a fragment-sized compound (10) with highly improved ligand efficiency. Compound design was guided by structure–activity relationships and computational modeling. The 6-substituted derivatives of the thienopyrimidinone showed diminished activity and enzyme selectivity. However, synthesis of the 7-substituted derivatives resulted in the discovery of 28e, a desirable lead compound that selectively inhibits PDE7 with single-digit nanomolar potency while displaying potent cellular efficacy. 备注: PDE7被认为是多种疾病的可能靶点,包括白血病、中枢神经系统紊乱和导气管疾病。 一些PDE7抑制剂: 5. Phenylimidazoles as Potent and Selective Inhibitors of Coagulation Factor XIa with in Vivo Antithrombotic Activity J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 9915–9932 DOI: 10.1021/jm5010607 公司/组织:BMS 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:凝血因子Xia抑制剂 摘要原文: Novel inhibitors of FXIa containing an (S)-2-phenyl-1-(4-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ethanamine core have been optimized to provide compound 16b, a potent, reversible inhibitor of FXIa (Ki = 0.3 nM) having in vivo antithrombotic efficacy in the rabbit AV-shunt thrombosis model (ID50 = 0.6 mg/kg + 1 mg kg–1 h–1). Initial analog selection was informed by molecular modeling using compounds 11a and 11h overlaid onto the X-ray crystal structure of tetrahydroquinoline 3 complexed to FXIa. Further optimization was achieved by specific modifications derived from careful analysis of the X-ray crystal structure of the FXIa/11h complex. Compound 16b was well tolerated and enabled extensive pharmacologic evaluation of the FXIa mechanism up to the ID90 for thrombus inhibition. 备注: 抑制FXIa能有效抑制血栓的形成同时不会显著影响出血能力。 6. Discovery of Potent KIFC1 Inhibitors Using a Method of Integrated High-Throughput Synthesis and Screening J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 9958–9970 DOI: 10.1021/jm501179r 公司/组织:阿斯利康 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:KIFC1抑制剂 摘要原文: KIFC1 (HSET), a member of the kinesin-14 family of motor proteins, plays an essential role in centrosomal bundling in cancer cells, but its function is not required for normal diploid cell division. To explore the potential of KIFC1 as a therapeutic target for human cancers, a series of potent KIFC1 inhibitors featuring a phenylalanine scaffold was developed from hits identified through high-throughput screening (HTS). Optimization of the initial hits combined both design–synthesis–test cycles and an integrated high-throughput synthesis and biochemical screening method. An important aspect of this integrated method was the utilization of DMSO stock solutions of compounds registered in the corporate compound collection as synthetic reactants. Using this method, over 1500 compounds selected for structural diversity were quickly assembled in assay-ready 384-well plates and were directly tested after the necessary dilutions. Our efforts led to the discovery of a potent KIFC1 inhibitor, AZ82, which demonstrated the desired centrosome declustering mode of action in cell studies. 备注: 驱动蛋白抑制剂被认为是有价值的抗癌药,因为它们与纺锤体形成相关,可阻碍有丝分裂。 7. 8-Tetrahydropyran-2-yl Chromans: Highly Selective Beta-Site Amyloid Precursor Protein Cleaving Enzyme 1 (BACE1) Inhibitors J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 10112–10129 DOI: 10.1021/jm5015132 公司/组织:Genentech 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:BACE1抑制剂 摘要原文: A series of 2,3,4,4a,10,10a-hexahydropyrano[3,2-b]chromene analogs was developed that demonstrated high selectivity (>2000-fold) for BACE1 vs Cathepsin D (CatD). Three different Asp-binding moieties were examined: spirocyclic acyl guanidines, aminooxazolines, and aminothiazolines in order to modulate potency, selectivity, efflux, and permeability. Guided by structure based design, changes to P2′ and P3 moieties were explored. A conformationally restricted P2′ methyl group provided inhibitors with excellent cell potency (37–137 nM) and selectivity (435 to >2000-fold) for BACE1 vs CatD. These efforts lead to compound 59, which demonstrated a 69% reduction in rat CSF Aβ1–40 at 60 mg/kg (PO). 备注: 8. Discovery of BI 207524, an Indole Diamide NS5B Thumb Pocket 1 Inhibitor with Improved Potency for the Potential Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 10130–10143 DOI: 10.1021/jm501532z 公司/组织:Boehringer Ingelheim 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:NS5B抑制剂 摘要原文: The development of interferon-free regimens for the treatment of chronic HCV infection constitutes a preferred option that is expected in the future to provide patients with improved efficacy, better tolerability, and reduced risk for emergence of drug-resistant virus. We have pursued non-nucleoside NS5B polymerase allosteric inhibitors as combination partners with other direct acting antivirals (DAAs) having a complementary mechanism of action. Herein, we describe the discovery of a potent follow-up compound (BI 207524, 27) to the first thumb pocket 1 NS5B inhibitor to demonstrate antiviral activity in genotype 1 HCV infected patients, BILB 1941 (1). Cell-based replicon potency was significantly improved through electronic modulation of the pKa of the carboxylic acid function of the lead molecule. Subsequent ADME-PK optimization lead to 27, a predicted low clearance compound in man. The preclinical profile of inhibitor 27 is discussed, as well as the identification of a genotoxic metabolite that led to the discontinuation of the development of this compound. 备注: 首个对人类具有抗菌活性的拇指口袋1NS5B抑制剂结构如下: 9. Discovery of Selective and Noncovalent Diaminopyrimidine-Based Inhibitors of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Containing the T790M Resistance Mutation J. Med. Chem., 2014, 57 (23), pp 10176–10191 DOI: 10.1021/jm501578n 公司/组织:Genentech Inc. 候选药物化学结构式/活性: 靶点/作用机制:EGFR T790M耐药性突变株抑制剂 摘要原文: Activating mutations within the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase domain, commonly L858R or deletions within exon 19, increase EGFR-driven cell proliferation and survival and are correlated with impressive responses to the EGFR inhibitors erlotinib and gefitinib in nonsmall cell lung cancer patients. Approximately 60% of acquired resistance to these agents is driven by a single secondary mutation within the EGFR kinase domain, specifically substitution of the gatekeeper residue threonine-790 with methionine (T790M). Due to dose-limiting toxicities associated with inhibition of wild-type EGFR (wtEGFR), we sought inhibitors of T790M-containing EGFR mutants with selectivity over wtEGFR. We describe the evolution of HTS hits derived from Jak2/Tyk2 inhibitors into selective EGFR inhibitors. X-ray crystal structures revealed two distinct binding modes and enabled the design of a selective series of novel diaminopyrimidine-based inhibitors with good potency against T790M-containing mutants of EGFR, high selectivity over wtEGFR, broad kinase selectivity, and desirable physicochemical properties. 备注:
