Oncogenic mutations in the RAS gene account for 30% of all human tumors; more than 60% of which present as KRAS mutations at the hotspot codon 12. After decades of intense pursuit, a covalent inhibition strategy has enabled selective targeting of this previously “undruggable” target. Herein, we disclose our journey toward the discovery of MK-1084, an orally bioavailable and low-dose KRASG12C covalent
RAS基因的致癌突变占所有人类肿瘤的30%;其中超过 60% 表现为热点密码子 12 处的 KRAS 突变。经过数十年的不懈努力,共价抑制策略已经能够选择性靶向这一以前“不可成药”的靶点。在此,我们披露了我们发现 MK-1084 的历程,MK-1084 是一种口服生物可利用的低剂量 KRAS G12C共价抑制剂,目前正在进行 I 期临床试验 (NCT05067283)。我们利用基于结构的药物设计来确定大环核心结构,并利用假设驱动的生物制药特性优化来进一步提高代谢稳定性和耐受性。
