B-Raf represents an attractive target for anticancer therapy and the development of small molecule B-Raf inhibitors has delivered new therapies for metastatic melanoma patients. We have discovered a novel class of small molecules that inhibit mutant B-Raf(V600E) kinase activity both in vitro and in vivo. Investigations into the structure-activity relationships of the series are presented along with efforts to improve upon the cellular potency, solubility, and pharmacokinetic profile. Compounds selectively inhibited B-Raf(V600E) in vitro and showed preferential antiproliferative activity in mutant B-Raf(V600E) cell lines and exhibited selectivity in a kinase panel against other kinases. Examples from this series inhibit growth of a B-Raf(V600E) A375 xenograft in vivo at a well-tolerated dose. In addition, aminoquinazolines described herein were shown to display pERK elevation in nonmutant B-Raf cell lines in vitro.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.
