| الوصف: | Background: The bromodomains and extra-terminal domain (BET) proteins are a family of 4 adapter proteins, BRD2, BRD3, BRD4, and BRDT, that bind to specific acetylated lysine residues on the histone tails of chromatin and recruit additional proteins to regulate gene transcription. The c-MYC oncogene, which is amplified and deregulated in 40% to 70% of all cancers, is directly regulated by BET proteins. Preclinical studies provide a strong rationale for pursuing transcriptional regulation via BET inhibition in cancer treatment (Lenhart, et al. Mol Cancer Ther. 2015;14:2167-2174; Filippakopoulos, et al. Nature. 2010;468:1067-1073). Here, we present results of crystal structure-guided structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies that resulted in the identification of BMS-986158, a highly potent BET inhibitor. Methods: Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), we screened a library of compounds and identified a carbazole series of BET inhibitors. Alkylation of the carbazole nitrogen resulted in a 10-fold boost in potency against BET. We then created a differently oriented carbazole series and, subsequently, a carboline series of compounds to improve potency and pharmaceutical properties. A thermal shift assay was used to evaluate selectivity for binding to the BET family of bromodomains. Results: Crystal structure and subsequent SAR studies demonstrated that the isoxazole moiety formed critical interactions with the BET bromodomains. Lead compounds demonstrated potent binding to BRD4 and reduction in c-MYC expression and proliferation in cell lines such as KMS-11. Accessing a second lipophilic pocket in the BRD4 binding site increased potency significantly. Modification of the lead series from a carbazole carboxamide to a carboline resulted in significant improvement in pharmaceutical properties and led to the identification of BMS-986158, which demonstrated in vitro and in vivo potency against a variety of tumor types. In c-MYC-driven cancer cell lines, BMS-986158 caused dose-dependent downregulation of c-MYC expression and induced cancer cell death. BMS-986158 demonstrated > 70% tumor growth inhibition at tolerated doses in patient-derived xenograft models (lung, colorectal, and triple-negative breast cancers). Antitumor activity in mice and pharmacokinetic properties in animal studies support oral dosing in humans. Conclusions: Structure-based drug design led to the discovery of BMS-986158, a highly potent BET inhibitor. With promising antitumor activity in preclinical studies, BMS-986158 is currently being evaluated in a phase 1/2a clinical trial in patients with advanced cancers. Citation Format: Ashvinikumar V.
