vactosertib
Vactosertib is an orally bioavailable TGFβ type I receptor kinase inhibitor, that has demonstrated safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy in combination with pomalidomide in a Ph. Ib trial for RRMM.
VVD-214/RO7589831
VVD-214/RO7589831 is an oral covalent, reversible, and allosteric inhibitor of WRN helicase discovered by the San Diego-based biotech Vividion Therapeutics and being developed by Roche for tumors marked by microsatellite instability and/or mismatch repair deficiency. Vividion has utilized its chemoproteomics platform to discover and develop novel treatment options for oncology targets. The structure and initial preclinical pharmacology data for VVD-214 were recently disclosed at the AACR Annual Meeting 2024 in San Diego. VVD-214 is currently being evaluated in a Ph. I trial.
RLY-2608
RLY-2608 is an oral, mutant-selective PI3Kα allosteric inhibitor from Relay Therapeutics. Current FDA-approved PI3Kα modulator (alpelisib) and a clinically advanced molecule (inavolisib) are limited by their off-target toxicities associated with the inhibition of WT PI3Kα, leading to hyperglycemia and rash. RLY-2608 is currently in a Ph. I as a single agent and in combination with fulvestrant for HR+/HER2- breast cancer treatment. This article reviews the discovery of RLY-2608, its mechanism of mutant selectivity, how it compares to other molecules, recent clinical developments, and more.
EOS-984
EOS-984 is an oral, potential first-in-class, highly selective ENT1 inhibitor from iTeos currently in clinical trials for advanced solid tumors. The drug, which was identified through SBDD and optimization of the vasodilator dilazep, targets the immunosuppressive effects of adenosine, which helps tumors evade immune detection. This is an excellent case study on the importance of understanding a molecule's bioactive conformation to reduce the entropy of binding and enhance potency.
