HRO761
Novartis’ HRO761 is an oral allosteric WRN helicase inhibitor, aimed at treating MSI-high and dMMR tumors. This article details the discovery of HRO761 and highlights the importance of selecting appropriate assays during early HTS as well as transferable medicinal chemistry strategies to optimize permeability and solubility through the modulation of LipE, neutral TPSA, chameleonicity, and non-classical zwitterions. It also explores the X-ray structure of HRO761 bound to WRN, how it differentiates from Vividion's VVD-214, its preclinical activity, clinical status, chemical synthesis, and more!
revumenib
Revumenib (Revuforj®) is approved by the FDA as an oral, first-in-class menin-MLL interaction inhibitor for acute leukemia (AL). Since inhibition of the menin-MLL fusion protein interaction is selective for AL with a KMT2A translocation, it does not compromise normal hematopoietic function. This article covers the background, optimization and clinical development that has led to the approval of this groundbreaking new drug in a hard-to-treat indication.
CVN293
Cerevance’s CVN293 is an oral, CNS-penetrant, selective inhibitor of potassium efflux-mediated NLRP3-inflammasome activation in microglia for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. Cerevance’s NETSseq platform was used to discover a microglia-specific potassium efflux channel, KCNK13, which allows modulation of the NLRP3-inflammasome in the CNS without affecting peripheral innate immunity. Read the full article to discover highlights on the CNS-penetration of highly polar compounds and how particle size can be key to oral bioavailability
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.
AZD4144
Recently, a surge of (pre)clinical compounds inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome, often featuring a hexahydroindacene ring system, has emerged, including Nodthera’s ND-0796. In a push for new chemotypes, AZ and Mitsubishi Tanabe have disclosed their clinical compound, AZD4144, which is currently in Ph. I trials in healthy volunteers. The discovery story detailed their efforts to overcome PLD (phospholipidosis), genotoxicity, and hERG inhibition in a non-classical pharmacophore series. The discovery was presented by Anders Johansson at the EFMC-ISMC 2024 Meeting in Rome.
