RESUMEN
Cyclin dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) is an attractive target in tumor indications via regulating both cell cycle and transcription. Here, SHR5428 was discovered as a selective and noncovalent CDK7 inhibitor with highly potent CDK7 enzymatic activity and triple negative breast cancer cellular activity on MDA-MB-468 cell. SHR5428 also displayed favorable pharmacokinetic properties in different preclinical species such as mouse, rat and dog, and showed high selectivity over CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, CDK6, CDK9, CDK12 in CDK family. Furthermore, the computational modeling has shed some light on this mechanism. Additionally the in vivo efficacy study in a breast cancer cell line (HCC70 cell) derived xenograft mouse model proved SHR5428 to be orally efficacious with dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition.

The MAPK pathway is identified as one of the most important pathways involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. A key kinase in the pathway, the Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) is recognized as a promising target for antitumor drugs. Structure-based design and optimization of known MEK inhibitors resulted in identification of compound 10a as a potent non-ATP competitive MEK inhibitor in both in vitro and in vivo tests.
