RESUMO
During the course of our research on the lead optimisation of the NBTI (Novel Bacterial Type II Topoisomerase Inhibitors) class of antibacterials, we discovered a series of tricyclic compounds that showed good Gram-positive and Gram-negative potency. Herein we will discuss the various subunits that were investigated in this series and report advanced studies on compound 1 (GSK945237) which demonstrates good PK and in vivo efficacy properties.

A series of suitable five-membered heterocyclic alternatives to thiophenes within a thienobenzoxepin class of PI3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors was discovered. Specific thiazolobenzoxepin 8-substitution was identified that increased selectivity over PI3Kß. PI3Kß-sparing compound 27 (PI3Kß Ki,app/PI3Kα Ki,app=57) demonstrated dose-dependent knockdown of pAKT, pPRAS40 and pS6RP in vivo as well as differential effects in an in vitro proliferation cell line screen compared to pan PI3K inhibitor GDC-0941. A new structure-based hypothesis for reducing inhibition of the PI3K ß isoform while maintaining activity against α, δ and γ isoforms is presented.
