RESUMO
Therapeutic development of a targeted agent involves a series of decisions over additional activities that may be ignored, eliminated or pursued. This paper details the concurrent application of two methods that provide a spectrum of information about the biological activity of a compound: biochemical profiling on a large panel of kinase assays and transcriptional profiling of mRNA responses. Our mRNA profiling studies used a full dose range, identifying subsets of transcriptional responses with differing EC(50)s which may reflect distinct targets. Profiling data allowed prioritization for validation in xenograft models, generated testable hypotheses for active compounds, and informed decisions on the general utility of the series.

The design and synthesis of a novel series of oxazole-, thiazole-, and imidazole-based inhibitors of IkappaB kinase (IKK) are reported. Biological activity was improved compared to the pyrazolopurine lead, and the expedient synthesis of the new tricyclic systems allowed for efficient exploration of structure-activity relationships. This, combined with an iterative rat cassette dosing strategy, was used to identify compounds with improved pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles to advance for in vivo evaluation.

In an era of increasing resistance to classical antibacterial agents, the synthetic oxazolidinone series of antibiotics has attracted much interest. Zyvoxtrade mark was the first oxazolidinone to be approved for clinical use against infections caused by multi-drug resistant Gram-positive bacteria. In the course of studies directed toward the discovery of novel antibacterial agents, a new series of synthetic phenyl-isoxazolinone agents that displayed potent activity against Gram-positive bacterial strains was recently discovered at Bristol-Myers Squibb. Extensive investigation of various substitutions on the phenyl ring was then undertaken. We report here, the synthesis and antibacterial activity of a series of biaryl isoxazolinone compounds.

Compounds based on sordaricin were prepared via organometallic addition onto a fully protected sordaricin aldehyde. The fungal growth inhibition profiles for these compounds were established and the results are presented here. The synthesis of homologated sordaricin as well as ether and ester derivatives is presented, and structural rearrangement products upon oxidation. These compounds were evaluated as agents to inhibit fungal growth.

The synthesis and antifungal activity of 5'- and 5'-6'-substituted azasordarin derivatives are described. Modification of the 5'-position led to the discovery of the spirocyclopentyl analogue 7g, which is the first azasordarin to register single-digit MIC values versus Aspergillus spp. Further investigation identified the 5'-i-Pr derivative 7b, which displays superior pharmacokinetic properties compared to other azasordarins.
