Castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPCs) lose sensitivity to androgen-deprivation therapies but frequently remain dependent on oncogenic transcription driven by the androgen receptor (AR) and its splice variants. To discover modulators of AR-variant activity, we used a lysate-based small-molecule microarray assay and identified KI-ARv-03 as an AR-variant complex binder that reduces AR-driven transcription and proliferation in prostate cancer cells. We deduced KI-ARv-03 to be a potent, selective inhibitor of CDK9, an important cofactor for AR, MYC, and other oncogenic transcription factors. Further optimization resulted in KB-0742, an orally bioavailable, selective CDK9 inhibitor with potent anti-tumor activity in CRPC models. In 22Rv1 cells, KB-0742 rapidly downregulates nascent transcription, preferentially depleting short half-life transcripts and AR-driven oncogenic programs. In vivo, oral administration of KB-0742 significantly reduced tumor growth in CRPC, supporting CDK9 inhibition as a promising therapeutic strategy to target AR dependence in CRPC. In the pursuit of hormone receptor modulators in prostate cancer, a potent, ultraselective CDK9 inhibitor is discovered. This study describes the most selective inhibitors of CDK9 known to date and provides compelling preclinical in vitro and in vivo support for CDK9 as a therapeutic target.

Paragraph 0132-0133, (2020/05/14)
Inhibitors of CDK9 that are pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives and salts thereof, corresponding to formula (I):
Mild decarboxylative activation of malonic acid derivatives by 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole

supporting information; experimental part, p. 2322 - 2325 (2011/06/26)
Chemical equations presented. Malonic acid derivatives undergo unusually mild decarboxylation when treated with N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) at room temperature to generate the carbonyl imidazole moiety in high yield, which can be reacted further with a variety of nucleophiles in an efficient one-pot process.
