PubMed Abstract: Recent clinical data provided proof-of-concept for selective B-Raf inhibitors in treatment of B-Raf(V600E) mutant melanoma. Pyrazolopyridine-type B-Raf inhibitors previously described by the authors are potent and selective but exhibit low solubility requiring the use of amorphous dispersion-based formulation for achieving efficacious drug exposures. Through structure-based design, we discovered a new class of highly potent aminopyrimidine-based B-Raf inhibitors with improved solubility and pharmacokinetic profiles. The hinge binding moiety possesses a basic center imparting high solubility at gastric pH, addressing the dissolution limitation observed with our previous series. In our search for an optimal linker-hinge binding moiety system, amide-linked thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine analogues 32 and 35 (G945), molecules with desirable physicochemical properties, emerged as lead compounds with strong efficacy in a B-Raf(V600E) mutant mouse xenograft model. Synthesis, SAR, lead selection, and evaluation of key compounds in animal studies will be described.
