(+) and (-)-Eugenilones A-K, 11 pairs of undescribed enantiomeric sesquiterpenoids, together with three undescribed biogenetically related members eugenilones L-N, were discovered from the fruits of Eugenia uniflora Linn. (Myrtaceae). Structurally, eugenilones A-D were four caged sesquiterpenoids featuring 9,10-dioxatricyclo [6.2.2.02,7]dodecane, 11-oxatricyclo [5.3.1.03,8]undecane, and tricyclo [4.4.0.02,8]decane cores, respectively. Eugenilones E-K were eudesmane-type sesquiterpenoids, while eugenilones L-N were epoxy germacrane-type sesquiterpenoids. Notably, eugenilones A-K were efficiently resolved by chiral HPLC to give 11 pairs of optically pure enantiomers. The structures and absolute configurations of eugenilones A-N were determined through spectroscopic analyses, X-ray crystallography, and ECD calculations. The putative biosynthetic pathways for these undescribed isolates were proposed. Moreover, eugenilones A and E exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting LPS-stimulated NO overproduction in RAW264.7 cells (IC50 values of 4.89 ± 0.37 µM and 20.89 ± 1.49 µM, respectively) and TNF-α-induced NF-κB activation in HEK293 cells (IC50 values of 10.97 ± 1.03 µM and 28.63 ± 1.59 µM, respectively).

AXL kinase is heavily involved in tumorigenesis, metastasis, and drug resistance of many cancers, and several AXL inhibitors are in clinical investigations. Recent studies demonstrated that the N-terminal distal region of AXL plays more important roles in cell invasiveness than its C-terminal kinase domain. Therefore, degradation of AXL may present a novel superior therapeutic approach than the kinase inhibitor therapy. Herein, we report the discovery of a series of new AXL PROTAC degraders. One representative compound 6n potently depletes AXL with a DC50 value of 5 nM in MDA-MB-231 TNBC cells. It also demonstrates significantly improved potencies against the AXL signaling activation, cell proliferation, migration and invasion of TNBC cells comparing with the corresponding kinase inhibitor. Moreover, the compound exhibits promising therapeutic potential both in patient-derived organoids and a xenograft mouse model of MDA-MB-231 cells.

REarranged during Transfection (RET) is a validated target for anticancer drug discovery and two selective RET inhibitors were approved by US FDA in 2020. However, acquired resistance mediated by secondary mutations in the solvent-front region of the kinase (e.g. G810C/S/R) becomes a major challenge for selective RET inhibitor therapies. Herein, we report a structure-based design of 1-methyl-3-((4-(quinolin-4-yloxy)phenyl)amino)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives as new RET kinase inhibitors which are capable of suppressing the RETG810 C/R resistant mutants. One of the representative compounds, 8q, potently suppressed wild-type RET kinase with an IC50 value of 13.7 nM. It also strongly inhibited the proliferation of BaF3 cells stably expressing various oncogenic fusions of RET kinase with solvent-front mutations, e.g. CCDC6-RETG810C, CCDC6-RETG810R, KIF5B-RETG810C and KIF5B-RETG810R, with IC50 values of 15.4, 53.2, 54.2 and 120.0 nM, respectively. Furthermore, 8q dose-dependently inhibited the activation of RET and downstream signals and obviously triggered apoptosis in Ba/F3-CCDC6-RETG810 C/R cells. The compound also exhibited significant anti-tumor efficacy with a tumor growth inhibition (TGI) value of 66.9% at 30 mg/kg/day via i. p. in a Ba/F3-CCDC6-RETG810C xenograft mouse model. Compound 8q may be utilized as a lead compound for drug discovery combating acquired resistance against selective RET inhibitor therapies.

Aberrant FGF19/FGFR4 signaling is an oncogenic driver force for the development of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A series of 2-formyl tetrahydronaphthyridine urea derivatives were designed and synthesized as new covalently reversible inhibitors of FGFR4. The representative compound 9ka exhibited an IC50 value of 5.4 nM against FGFR4 and demonstrated extraordinary kinome selectivity. Compound 9ka also exhibited good oral pharmacokinetic properties with an AUC(0-t) value of 38â¯950.06 h·ng/mL, a T1/2 value of 3.06 h, and an oral bioavailability of 50.97%, at an oral dose of 25 mg/kg in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Furthermore, compound 9ka induced significant tumor regressions in a xenograft mouse model of Hep3B2.1-7 HCC cell line without an obvious sign of toxicity upon 30 mg/kg oral administration. Compound 9ka may serve as a promising lead compound for further anticancer drug development.

Covalent kinase inhibitors are rapidly emerging as a class of therapeutics with clinical benefits. Herein we report a series of selective 2-aminopyrimidine-based fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) inhibitors exploring different types of cysteine-targeting warheads. The structure-activity relationship study revealed that the chemically tuned warheads α-fluoro acrylamide, vinylsulfonamide, and acetaldehyde amine were suitable as covalent warheads for the design of selective FGFR4 inhibitors. Compounds 6a, 6h, and 6i selectively suppressed FGFR4 enzymatic activity with IC50 values of 53 ± 18, 45 ± 11, and 16 ± 4 nM, respectively, while sparing FGFR1/2/3. X-ray crystal structure and MALDI-TOF studies demonstrated that compound 6h bearing the α-fluoro acrylamide binds to FGFR4 with an irreversible binding mode, whereas compound 6i with an acetaldehyde amine binds to FGFR4 with a reversible covalent mode. 6h and 6i might provide some fundamental structural information for the rational design of new selective FGFR4 inhibitors.

RESUMO
Neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) fusions are oncogenic drivers for a variety of adult and pediatric tumors, validated by the US FDA approval of small molecular Trk inhibitors Larotrectinib (1, LOXO-101) and Entrectinib (2). However, gene mutation mediated resistance becomes a major challenge for Trk inhibitor therapies. Herein, we report the design, synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship investigation of a series of 3-vinylindazole derivatives as new Trk inhibitors with low nanomolar potencies. A representative compound, 7mb, binds to TrkA/B/C with Kd values of 1.6, 3.1 and 4.9 nM, and suppresses their kinase functions with IC50 values of 1.6, 2.9 and 2.0 nM, respectively, but is obviously less potent for the majority of a panel of 403 wild-type kinases in a KINOMEscan selectivity investigation. The compound also potently suppresses proliferation of a panel of BaF3 cells stably transformed with NTRK fusions with IC50 values in low nM ranges. Additionally, the compound exhibits strong inhibition against the Larotrectinib-resistant cells with NTRK1-G667C or NTRK3-G696A mutations with IC50 values of 0.031 and 0.018 µM, respectively. Although the relatively poor oral bioavailability of 7mb will limit its further development, this compound may be utilized a lead molecule for further structural optimization.

DDR1 is considered as a promising target for cancer therapy, and selective inhibitors against DDR1 over other kinases may be considered as promising therapeutic agents. Herein, we have identified a series of 3'-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-yl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxamides as novel selective DDR1 inhibitors. Among these, compound 8v potently inhibited DDR1 with an IC50 of 23.8 nM, while it showed less inhibitory activity against DDR2 (IC50 = 1740 nM) and negligible activities against Bcr-Abl (IC50 > 10 µM) and c-Kit (IC50 > 10 µM). 8v also exhibited excellent selectivity in a KINOMEscan screening platform with 468 kinases. This compound dose-dependently suppressed NSCLC cell tumorigenicity, migration, and invasion. Collectively, these studies support its potential application for treatment of NSCLC.

Aurora kinases play critical roles in the regulation of the cell cycle and mitotic spindle assembly. Aurora A kinase, a member of the Aurora protein family, is frequently highly expressed in tumors, and selective Aurora A inhibition serves as a significant component of anticancer therapy. However, designing highly selective Aurora A inhibitors is difficult because Aurora A and B share high homology and differ only by three residues in their ATP-binding pockets. Through structure-based drug design, we designed and synthesized a series of novel quinazolin-4-amine derivatives. These derivatives act as selective Aurora A kinase inhibitors by exploiting the structural differences between Aurora A and B. The selectivities of most compounds were improved (the best up to >757-fold) when comparing with the lead compound (3-fold). In vitro biochemical and cellular assays revealed that compound 6 potently inhibited Aurora A kinase and most human tumor cells. Furthermore, compound 6 effectively suppressed carcinoma, such as triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) in an animal model. Therefore, compound 6 might serve as a promising anticancer drug. Moreover, through molecular dynamic (MD) analysis, we have identified that a salt bridge formed in Aurora B is key contributor for the isoform selectivity of the inhibitor. This salt bridge has not been previously detected in the reported crystal structure of Aurora B. These results might provide a crucial basis for the further development of highly potent inhibitors with high selectivity for Aurora A.

Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor kinase (CSF1R) is a well validated molecular target for anticancer drug discovery. Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationship study of 2-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5- d]pyrimidines as new orally bioavailable CSF1R inhibitors. One of the most promising compounds, 3bw, potently inhibits CSF1R kinase with an IC50 value of 3.0 nM, while it is less potent against structurally related epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and other kinases. The kinase inhibition of 3bw was further validated by Western blotting analysis in RAW264.7 macrophages. The molecule also potently blocks macrophage infiltration, abrogates the protumorigenic influences of macrophages, and exhibits reasonable pharmacokinetic profile. Compound 3bw may serve as a new valuable lead compound for future anticancer drug discovery.
