Inhibitors of the Hsp90 molecular chaperone are showing considerable promise as potential chemotherapeutic agents for cancer. Here, we describe the structure-based design, synthesis, structure - activity relationships and pharmacokinetics of potent small-molecule inhibitors of Hsp90 based on the 4,5-diarylisoxazole scaffold. Analogues from this series have high affinity for Hsp90, as measured in a fluorescence polarization (FP) competitive binding assay, and are active in cancer cell lines where they inhibit proliferation and exhibit a characteristic profile of depletion of oncogenic proteins and concomitant elevation of Hsp72. Compound 40f (VER-52296/NVP-AUY922) is potent in the Hsp90 FP binding assay (IC50 = 21 nM) and inhibits proliferation of various human cancer cell lines in vitro, with GI50 averaging 9 nM. Compound 40f is retained in tumors in vivo when administered i.p., as evaluated by cassette dosing in tumor-bearing mice. In a human colon cancer xenograft model, 40f inhibits tumor growth by ～50%.

Isoxazoles of formula (A) or (B) are inhibitors of HSP90 activity, and useful for treatment of, for example cancers: (A), (B) wherein R1, is a group of formula (IA): -Ar1-(Alk1)p-(Z)r-(Alk2)S-Q, wherein in any compatible combination Ar1 is an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl radical, Alk1and Alk2 are optionally substituted divalent Cl-C6 alkylene or C2-C6 alkenylene radicals, p, r and s are independently 0 or 1, Z is -0-, -S-, -(C=O)-, -(C=S)-, -SO2-, -C(=O)O-, -C(=O)NRA-, -C(=S)NRA-, - SO2NRA-, -NRAC(=O)-, -NRASO2- or -NRA- wherein RA is hydrogen or Cl-C6 alkyl, and Q is hydrogen or an optionally substituted carbocyclic or heterocyclic radical; R2 is (i) a group of formula (IA) above or (ii) a carboxamide radical; or (iii) a non aromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring wherein a ring carbon is optionally substituted, and/or a ring nitrogen is optionally substituted by a group of formula -(Alk1)p-(Z)r-(Alk2)s-Q wherein Q, Alk1, Alk2, Z, p, r and s are as defined above in relation to group (IA); and R3 is hydrogen, optionally substituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, C1-C6 alkyl, C1-C6 alkenyl, or C1-C6 alkynyl; or a carboxyl, carboxamide, or carboxyl ester group.
