with covalent inhibitor, there an unmet medical need to identify reversible, selective, potent BTK inhibitor as viable therapeutics for patients. Herein, we describe the identification of Hits and subsequence optimization to improve the physicochemical properties, potency and kinome selectivity leading to the discovery of a novel class of BTK inhibitors. Utilizing Met ID and structure base design inhibitors
布鲁顿酪氨酸激酶 (BTK) 是 B 细胞中 BCR 信号传导的重要节点,经临床验证,其在 B 细胞淋巴瘤和各种自身免疫性疾病如多发性硬化症 (MS)、天疱疮和类风湿病中发挥关键作用关节炎(RA)。尽管非选择性不可逆 BTK 抑制剂已被批准用于肿瘤学,但由于与共价抑制剂相关的 B 细胞淋巴瘤中出现耐药性,仍有未满足的医学需求来确定可逆、选择性、有效的 BTK 抑制剂作为患者可行的治疗方法。在此,我们描述了 Hits 的鉴定和子序列优化,以改善物理化学性质、效力和激酶组选择性,从而发现一类新型 BTK 抑制剂。适合推进铅优化的啮齿动物体内代谢稳定性和口服暴露。
