RESUMEN
Optimization of a lead series of PI3Kδ inhibitors based on a dihydroisobenzofuran core led to the identification of potent, orally bioavailable compound 19. Selectivity profiling of compound 19 showed similar potency for class III PI3K, Vps34, and PI3Kδ, and compound 19 was not well-tolerated in a 7-day rat toxicity study. Structure-based design led to an improvement in selectivity for PI3Kδ over Vps34 and, a focus on oral phramacokinetics properties resulted in the discovery of compound 41, which showed improved toxicological outcomes at similar exposure levels to compound 19.

Optimization of lead compound 1, through extensive use of structure-based design and a focus on PI3Kδ potency, isoform selectivity, and inhaled PK properties, led to the discovery of clinical candidates 2 (GSK2269557) and 3 (GSK2292767) for the treatment of respiratory indications via inhalation. Compounds 2 and 3 are both highly selective for PI3Kδ over the closely related isoforms and are active in a disease relevant brown Norway rat acute OVA model of Th2-driven lung inflammation.
