ABSTRACT
We report the discovery of a novel aminopyrazine series of PI3Kα inhibitors, designed by hybridizing two known scaffolds of PI3K inhibitors. We describe the progress achieved from the first compounds plagued with poor general kinase selectivity to compounds showing high selectivity for PI3Kα over PI3Kß and excellent general kinase selectivity. This effort culminated with the identification of compound 5 displaying high potency and selectivity, and suitable physiochemical and pharmacokinetic properties for oral administration. In vivo, compound 5 showed good inhibition of tumour growth (86% tumour growth inhibition at 50mg/kg twice daily orally) in the MCF7 xenograft model in mice.
