Kinesin spindle protein (KSP), an ATPase responsible for spindle pole separation during mitosis that is present only in proliferating cells, has become a novel and attractive anticancer target with potential for reduced side effects compared to currently available therapies. We report herein the discovery of the first known ATP-competitive inhibitors of KSP, which display a unique activity profile as compared to the known loop 5 (L5) allosteric KSP inhibitors that are currently under clinical evaluation. Optimization of this series led to the identification of biphenyl sulfamide 20, a potent KSP inhibitor with in vitro antiproliferative activity against human cells with either wild-type KSP (HCT116) or mutant KSP (HCT116 D 130V). In a murine xenograft model with HCT116 D130V tumors, 20 showed significant antitumor activity following intraperitoneal dosing, providing in vivo proof-of-principle of the efficacy of an ATP-competitive KSP inhibitor versus tumors that are resistant to the other known KSP inhibitors.

Alkyl and trifluoromethyl derivatives of 4-aminobiphenyl (1) (4ABP) and 2-aminofluorene (7) (2AF) were synthesised and assayed for mutagenicity using Salmonella typhimurium tester strains TA98 and TA100 with and without the addition of S9 mix. Modification of 1 was achieved by attachment of alkyl groups (methyl, ethyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl) and a trifluoromethyl group (CF3) in the 4′-position, the 3′-position (Me, CF3) and the 3′-, 5′-positions (DiMe, DiCF3). Compound 7 was modified by introduction of alkyl groups (methyl, tert-butyl, adamantyl) and a trifluoromethyl group (CF3) in the 7-position. The derivatives of 1 and 7 show for groups with growing steric demand decreased mutagenic activity. The bulkiest groups (CF3, tert-butyl and adamantyl) induce the strongest effects on the mutagenicity. It was even possible to eliminate the mutagenicity of 1 and 7 by introduction of such substituents. In the last part of the work, we compared the experimental mutagenicities with calculated values derived from QSAR correlations. Our findings show that the predictions for aromatic amines with bulky substituents were generally too high. The strongest deviations were observed in the case of the CF3-, tert-butyl- and the adamantyl-group. Only the parent compounds and derivatives with small alkyl groups were predicted well. These investigations show that "large" substituents have an influence on the mutagenicity caused by their steric demand. To predict the correct mutagenicities of such compounds, it is necessary to introduce steric parameters in the respective QSAR equations which will be done in a forthcoming paper.
