HC-7366

HiberCell recently disclosed the discovery of HC-7366, a potential first-in-class, intentionally discovered, orally bioavailable, potent, selective, small-molecule kinase activator of GCN2. HC-7366 has now progressed to Ph. I trials to treat ccRCC and AML. This case study is a fantastic example of how to mitigate CYP3A4 inhibition and improve oral bioavailability via judicious choice of salt formulation.

AZ-PRMT5i-1

AZ-PRMT5i-1 is an orally bioavailable MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor that specifically targets MTAP-deleted cancers and is structurally related to AZ’s clinical candidate, AZ3470. This case study is an excellent example of utilizing bioisosteric replacements for polar guanidine headgroups, rigidifying scaffolds through spirocyclization to reduce rotatable bonds, and leveraging fluorine atoms beyond simply blocking metabolic soft spots.

CHF-6523

Chiesi Farmaceutici’s CHF-6523 is an inhaled, lung-restricted, selective PI3Kδ inhibitor designed to provide relief to patients with COPD. Its development involved optimization of permeability and solubility as well as identification of a solid form amenable for dry powder inhalation. Disclosed at the EFMC-ISMC 2024 joint conference in Rome, Italy, this article covers the structure, development, and early clinical data of CHF-6523, which ultimately indicates that PI3Kδ inhibition may not provide clinical effect in reduction of lung inflammation.

IAG933

IAG933 is Novartis’ potential first-in-class small molecule inhibitor of the PPI between YAP/TAZ and TEAD, currently in a Ph. I trial for solid tumors with Hippo pathway alterations. This case study not only highlights a fascinating mechanism of action but also serves as an excellent example of how to leverage structural data to inform hit selection and guide lead optimization, how to employ multiparameter optimization to circumvent cardiotoxicity liabilities, and how to redirect metabolism.

RMC-6236

RMC-6236 is a non-covalent pan-RAS(ON) inhibitor from Revolution Medicines, which shows remarkable efficacy in tumors driven by RAS mutants that were previously considered “undruggable,” such as G12V/D/A/S, G13X, and Q61X. RMC-6236 exerts its action via a “tri-complex” mechanism, gluing RAS to the ubiquitously expressed chaperone protein, cyclophilin A. Our in-depth article covers the presentation given at the AACR 2024 meeting, which outlines the discovery and preclinical profile of RMC-6236 as well as the latest clinical updates.
