New hits as antagonists of GPR103 identified by HTS

Preclinical data indicate that GPR103 receptor and its endogenous neuropeptides QRFP26 and QRFP43 are involved in appetite regulation. A high throughput screening (HTS) for small molecule GPR103 antagonists was performed with the clinical goal to target weight management by modulation of appetite. A high hit rate from the HTS and initial low confirmation with respect to functional versus affinity data challenged us to revise the established screening cascade. To secure high quality data while increasing throughput, the binding assay was optimized on quality to run at single concentration. This strategy enabled evaluation of a larger fraction of chemical clusters and singletons delivering 17 new compound classes for GPR103 antagonism. Representative compounds from three clusters are presented. One of the identified clusters was further investigated, and an initial structure-activity relationship study is reported. The most potent compound identified had a pIC50 of 7.9 with an improved ligand lipophilic efficiency.

Discovery of a clinical stage multi-kinase inhibitor sodium (E)-2-{2-methoxy-5-[(2′,4′,6′-trimethoxystyrylsulfonyl)methyl] phenylamino}acetate (ON 01910.Na): Synthesis, structure-activity relationship, and biological activity

Cyclin D proteins are elevated in many cancer cells, and targeted deletion of cyclin D1 gene in the mammary tissues protects mice from breast cancer. Accordingly, there is an increasing awareness of this novel nonenzymatic target for cancer therapeutics. We have developed novel, nonalkylating styrylbenzylsulfones that induce cell death in wide variety of cancer cells without affecting the proliferation and survival of normal cells. The development of derivatized styrylbenzylsulfones followed logically from a tumor cell cytotoxicity screen performed in our laboratory that did not have an a priori target profile. Modifications of some of the precursor molecules led to lead optimization with regard to tumor cell cytotoxicity. In this report we describe the synthesis and structure-activity relationships of novel, nonalkylating (E)-styrylbenzylsulfones and the development of the novel anticancer agent sodium (E)-2-{2-methoxy-5-[(2′,4′,6′- trimethoxystyrylsulfonyl)methyl]phenylamino}acetate (ON 01910.Na), which is in phase III trials for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) associated with aberrant expression of cyclin D proteins.
