Olutasidenib (FT-2102) in patients with relapsed or refractory IDH1-mutant glioma: A multicenter, open-label, phase Ib/II trial.

Background: Olutasidenib (FT-2102) is a highly potent, orally bioavailable, brain-penetrant and selective inhibitor of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1). The aim of the study was to determine the safety and clinical activity of olutasidenib in patients with relapsed/refractory gliomas harboring an IDH1R132X mutation.

Methods: This was an open-label, multicenter, nonrandomized, phase Ib/II clinical trial.

Projected Dose Optimization of Amino- and Hydroxypyrrolidine Purine PI3Kδ Immunomodulators.

The approvals of idelalisib and duvelisib have validated PI3Kδ inhibitors for the treatment for hematological malignancies driven by the PI3K/AKT pathway. Our program led to the identification of structurally distinct heterocycloalkyl purine inhibitors with excellent isoform and kinome selectivity; however, they had high projected human doses. Improved ligand contacts gave potency enhancements, while replacement of metabolic liabilities led to extended half-lives in preclinical species, affording PI3Kδ inhibitors with low once-daily predicted human doses.

Discovery and optimization of heteroaryl piperazines as potent and selective PI3Kδ inhibitors.

A high-throughput screening (HTS) campaign identified a class of heteroaryl piperazines with excellent baseline affinity and selectivity for phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ (PI3Kδ) over closely related isoforms. Rapid evaluation and optimization of structure-activity relationships (SAR) for this class, leveraging the modular nature of this scaffold, facilitated development of this hit class into a series of potent and selective inhibitors of PI3Kδ. This effort culminated in the identification of 29, which displayed excellent potency in enzyme and cell-based assays, as well as favorable pharmacokinetic and off-target profiles.
