- Discovery of potent Pan-Raf inhibitors with increased solubility to overcome drug resistance
-
Despite various applications of kinase inhibitors in oncology and inflammatory diseases, the emergence of resistance still remains the major barrier to achieve long-term remission in cancer treatment. With the aim of overcoming the resistance induced by type IIB BRaf V600E selective inhibitor vemurafenib, and further ameliorating the antiproliferative activity, a novel type IIA Pan-Raf inhibitors Ia–Io based on pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidine scaffold were designed and evaluated in this work. Herein, we tried to improve the cellular potency of the target compounds by increasing their solubility. Among them, Il, with the solubility of 0.107 mg/mL, demonstrated favorable cellular activity against vemurafenib-resistant carcinoma cells including BRafWT phenotypic melanoma SK-MEL-2 and BRafV600E phenotypic colorectal cancer HT-29 cell lines. Based on the well solubility, Il exhibited good metabolic stability compared to sorafenib and showed favorable pharmacokinetic profiles in rats. As for the biological mechanism research, Il had the similar P-ERK kinase inhibitory activity in A375 and SK-Mel-2 cells as our previously lead P-2. Il may become a good candidate compound to overcome the resistance associated with vemurafenib.

- Design, synthesis and evaluation of derivatives based on pyrimidine scaffold as potent Pan-Raf inhibitors to overcome resistance
-
Simutaneous targeting all Raf isoforms offers the prospect of enhanced efficacy as well as reduced potential for resistance. Described herein is the discovery and characterization of a series of pyrimidine scaffold with DFG-out conformation as potent Pan-Raf inhibitors. Among them, I-41 with excellent Pan-Raf potency demonstrates inhibitory activity against BRafWTphenotypic melanoma and BRafV600Ephenotypic colon cells. The western blot results for the Erk inhibition in human melanoma SK-Mel-2?cell lines showed I-41 inhibited the proliferation of SK-Mel-2?cell lines without paradoxical activation of Erk, which supported I-41 may become a good candidate compound to overcome the resistance of melanoma against the current BRafV600Einhibitor therapy. I-41 also have a favorable pharmacokinetic profile in rat. Synthesis, SAR, lead selection, and evaluation of the key compounds studies are described.

- Rational design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of Pan-Raf inhibitors to overcome resistance
-
Selective BRafV600E inhibitors with DFG-in conformation have been proven effective against a subset of melanoma. However, representative inhibitor vemurafenib rapidly acquires resistance in the BRafWT cells through a CRaf or BRafWT dependent manner. Simultaneous targeting of all subtypes of Raf proteins offers the prospect of enhanced efficacy as well as reduced potential for acquired resistance. Herein, we describe the design and characterization of a series of compounds I-01-I-22, based on a pyrimidine scaffold with DFG-out conformation as Pan-Raf inhibitors. Among them, I-15 binds to all Raf protomers with IC50 values of 12.6 nM (BRafV600E), 30.1 nM (ARaf), 19.7 nM (BRafWT) and 17.5 nM (CRaf) and demonstrates cellular activity against BRafWT phenotypic melanoma and BRafV600E phenotypic colorectal cancer cells. The western blot results for the P-Erk inhibition in human melanoma SK-Mel-2 cell line showed that I-15 inhibited the proliferation of the SK-Mel-2 cell line at concentrations as low as 400 nM, without paradoxical activation of Erk as vemurafenib, which supported that I-15 may become a good candidate compound to overcome the resistance of melanoma induced by vemurafenib. I-15 also has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile in rats. Rational design, synthesis, SAR, lead selection and evaluation of the key compounds studied are described.

- Potent Pan-Raf and Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Based on a Cyclopropyl Formamide Fragment Overcome Resistance
-
While selective BRafV600E inhibitors have been proven effective clinically, acquired resistance rapidly develops through reactivation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Simultaneous targeting of multiple nodes in the pathway offers the prospect of enhanced efficacy as well as reduced potential for acquired resistance. Replacement pyridine group of Y-1 by a cyclopropyl formamide group afforded I-01 as a novel multitargeted kinase inhibitor template. I-01 displayed enzyme potency against Pan-Raf and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Based on the binding mode of I-01, analogues I-02-I-18 were designed and synthesized. The most promising compound I-16 potently inhibits all subtypes of Rafs with IC50 values of 3.49 (BRafV600E), 8.86 (ARaf), 5.78 (BRafWT), and 1.65 nM (CRaf), respectively. I-16 not only exhibit comparable antiproliferative activities with positive control compounds against HepG2, SW579, MV4-11, and COLO205 cell lines, but also suppress the proliferation of melanoma SK-MEL-2 harboring overexpressed BRafWT with IC50 values of 0.93 μM. The Western blot results for the ERK inhibition in human melanoma SK-MEL-2 cell lines show that I-16 inhibits the proliferation of SK-MEL-2 cell lines without paradoxical activation of ERK, which support the hypothesis that the inhibition of Pan-Raf and RTKs might be a tractable strategy to overcome the resistance of melanoma induced by the therapy with the current selective BRafV600E inhibitors.

- N-Phenyl-N′-[4-(5H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-yloxy)phenyl]ureas as novel inhibitors of VEGFR and FGFR kinases
-
We have recently reported the discovery of pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives 1a and 1b as potent triple inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), and Tie-2 kinases. To identify compounds having strong inhibitory activity against fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) kinase, further modification was conducted using the co-crystal structure analysis of VEGFR2 and 1b. Among the compounds synthesized, urea derivative 11l having a piperazine moiety on the terminal benzene ring showed strong inhibitory activity against FGFR1 kinase as well as VEGFR2 kinase. A binding model of 11l complexed with VEGFR2 suggested that the piperazine moiety forms additional interactions with Ile1025 and His1026.
