Background
EGFR small molecule Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKI) erlotinib, gefitinib and afatinib were most successful as single drugs for treating lung adenocarcinomas with somatic mutations (e.g., L858R or exon 19 deletion, i.e., E746-a750 deletion) that confer sensitivity to such drugs, which occur in 7-20% of patients depending on race and sex (19). Unfortunately, the response rarely lasts for more than a year, as almost all patients develop resistance to treatment (20). The third generation irreversible inhibitor, oxitinib (AZD9291), is effective in treating untreated patients and patients who develop resistance to first or second generation TKIs (7). However, within one year of treatment with oxitinib, most patients develop another mutation in the EGFR kinase domain (C797S), which is the drug binding site (12, 21, 22). Although several approaches to targeting axitinib resistant EGFR have been reported (12, 13, 23), until now, these patients with the C797S mutation have no TKI treatment option. Chemotherapy is the only option.
In view of the foregoing, there is a need for cancer therapeutics that target EGFR in ways other than inhibiting EGFR tyrosine kinase activity. There is also a need for a therapeutic agent for the treatment of cancer that does not develop resistance after initial use.

Figure 1 shows (left) treatment with small peptides that inhibit tumor (marked by x) -specific EGFR for EGFR dimerization more than adjacent normal tissues; and (right) EGFR degradation schematic. EGFR is shown as an extracellular domain (small spot ═ n-leaf, large spot ═ C-leaf) and a flexible C-terminal tail linked to a biplate kinase domain via a transmembrane portion. EGF binding promotes active (asymmetric) dimer formation between the extracellular domains and/or between the n-lobe and c-lobe of the two monomers. EGFR in this conformation remains stable and induces phosphorylation of the C-terminal tail, thereby promoting tumor progression tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.g., ocitinib), inhibiting ATP recruitment and promoting inactive (symmetric) dimerization between the n-lobes of the two monomers. EGFR in this conformation retains the kinase inactive conformation but maintains protein stability. Inactivation of EGFR activity is associated with tumor growth inhibition. The α C-helix and β 4-sheet of the C-lobe of EGFR and the loop between the h-helix of the n-lobe are involved in EGF-induced active dimer formation. This model postulates that interferon (irterptin) or compound 8C binds in the capsule and interferes with EGF-induced active dimer formation. EGFR monomers bound to ligand and compound 8C degraded rapidly. Loss of EGFR protein is associated with cell death. The thickness of the arrow shows the effect of compound 8C in tumor cells versus normal cells.

Detailed Description
Although inhibition of kinase activity of oncogenic proteins using small molecules and antibodies has been the primary means of anticancer drug development efforts, leading to several FDA-approved cancer therapies, the clinical efficacy of kinase-targeted agents has been inconsistent (22, 24). EGFR has shown scaffold function in addition to tyrosine kinase activity (24-36). This can be demonstrated by Kinase Death (KD) mutants expressing EGFR (e.g., K745A, V741G and Y740F) or by expression of ErbB3 (no kinase activity) in Ba/F3 cells that do not express these receptors (37-39). Expression of these kinase-deficient mutants promotes cell survival, suggesting that these receptors may still transmit survival signals by forming dimers, suggesting that EGFR functions beyond kinase activity (39).
EGFR dimers are known to be relatively stable when compared to monomers (40). The dimer is capable of producing a downstream mitogenic signal (41). Without being bound by theory, it is hypothesized that blocking EGFR dimerization will accelerate EGFR degradation, and this approach will be effective against tumors driven by TKI resistant EGFR (14, 24, 27). Briefly, it was demonstrated that EGFR binding to EGF (phosphorylated EGFR prevalent in most tumors) protein stability is modulated by dimer formation by fragments in the EGFR kinase domain located between the α C helix and β 4 sheet of the C-lobe and the h-helix of the n-lobe of the EGFR kinase domain (15, 42). EGFR protein stability in normal cells is largely unregulated by this dimer interface, as EGFR does not form asymmetric dimers in the absence of EGF (43). This difference between tumor cells and normal cells provides a novel targetable protein-protein interaction.
To test this idea, a dozen peptides were generated that mimic the binding surface. The most potent peptide contains six amino acids from the α C- β 4 loop of EGFR, which is called interferon (17). Interferons are capable of inhibiting EGF-induced EGFR dimerization. This peptide binds directly to EGFR and repeated HEPES washes did not significantly affect this binding compared to the control peptide (scrambled peptide). Although interferons are effective in a Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) resistant lung xenograft model (14), delivery of peptides in humans remains challenging (44).
Provided herein are compounds that modulate EGFR, e.g., block EGFR dimerization, induce EGFR degradation, and kill EGFR-driven cells. These compounds are useful in the prevention or treatment of a variety of diseases and disorders, for example, in the treatment of cancer.

Generally, compounds of formula (I) can be synthesized according to
Compounds having structure c can be synthesized using the procedure shown in
The coupling of compounds a and b can be catalyzed by appropriate reagents selected based on the precise nature of compounds a and b. For example, when LG of compound b is halogen (e.g., when LG is chlorine), coupling of compounds a and b can be catalyzed by a base (e.g., sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate). Sometimes the coupling reaction may not require a catalyst.
In some cases, compounds having a structure selected from O, S and NR can be prepared by treatment with an appropriate reagent prior to coupling with a compound having structure b3Compound a of Q is converted to a compound having a structure selected from the group consisting of O, S and NR3Compounds of Q of different members of the group. For example, a compound having structure a of Q ═ O can be converted to a compound having structure a of Q ═ S by treatment with a sulfur hybridizing reagent (e.g., lawson' S reagent or diphosphorus pentasulfide). This compound can then be coupled with a compound having structure b to produce a compound described herein, i.e., havingA compound of formula (I) having structure c.
Compounds a and b can be commercially available or prepared by a variety of methods from commercially available starting materials. For example, amide compounds having structure b can be prepared by, for example, the reaction of an acid chloride with an amine.
May be based on the substituent R in the compound c1、R2The nature of A, Y and B, and the desired functionality in the derivative compound, select additional derivatization reactions that convert compounds having structure c to other compounds disclosed herein.

Pharmaceutical formulations, dosages and routes of administration
Further provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising a compound described herein (e.g., a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
The compounds described herein can be administered to a subject in a therapeutically effective amount (e.g., an amount sufficient to prevent or alleviate symptoms of a disease or disorder associated with aberrant EGFR). The compounds may be administered alone or as part of a pharmaceutically acceptable composition or formulation. In addition, the compound may be administered all at once, multiple times, or delivered substantially uniformly over a period of time. It should also be noted that the dosage of the compound may vary over time.
The particular administration regimen for a particular subject will depend, in part, on the compound, the amount of compound administered, the route of administration, and the cause and extent of any side effects. The amount of a compound administered to a subject (e.g., a mammal, such as a human) in accordance with the present disclosure should be sufficient to affect the desired response within a reasonable time frame. The dosage will generally depend on the route, time and frequency of administration. Thus, clinicians titrate dosages and vary routes of administration to achieve optimal therapeutic effects, and conventional ranging techniques are known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
Purely by way of example, the method comprises administering, in accordance with the factors described above, for example from about 0.1mg/kg to about 100mg/kg of a compound disclosed herein. In other embodiments, the dosage range is from 1mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg; or 5mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg; or from 10mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg. Some conditions require prolonged treatment, which may or may not result in administration of lower doses of the compound after multiple administrations. If desired, doses of the compound may be administered in two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses, respectively, at appropriate intervals throughout the day, optionally in unit dosage forms. The treatment period will be as the case may be, and may last from one day to several months.
Suitable methods of administering physiologically acceptable compositions, such as pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound disclosed herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I)), are well known in the art. Although more than one route may be used to administer a compound, a particular route may provide a more direct and more effective response than another route. The pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound is administered or instilled into a body cavity, absorbed through the skin or mucosa, ingested, inhaled and/or introduced into the circulation as the case may be. For example, in certain instances, it is desirable to deliver a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutical agent orally, by injection or by one of the following: intravenous, intraperitoneal, intracerebral (intraparenchymal), intracerebroventricular, intramuscular, intraocular, intraarterial, intraportal, intralesional, intramedullary, intrathecal, intraventricular, transdermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intranasal, enteral, topical, sublingual, urethral, vaginal, or rectal. The compounds may be administered by a sustained release system or an implanted device.
To facilitate administration, in various aspects, the compounds are formulated in a physiologically acceptable composition that includes a carrier (e.g., vehicle, adjuvant, or diluent). The particular carrier employed is limited by chemical-physical considerations such as inadequate solubility and reactivity with the compound, as well as the route of administration. Physiologically acceptable carriers are well known in the art. Illustrative pharmaceutical forms suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,466,468). Injectable formulations are further described in the following documents: for example, Pharmacy and pharmaceutical Practice (Pharmacy and pharmaceutical Practice), Leipingtech publishing Co., J.B. Lippincott Co., edited by Bank and Chalmers, pp.238-. In one aspect, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound is placed within a container along with packaging material that provides instructions regarding the use of such pharmaceutical composition. Typically, such instructions contain tangible expressions describing the concentration of the agent, and in certain embodiments, the relative amounts of excipient ingredients or diluents (e.g., water, saline, or PBS) that may be required for the recombinant pharmaceutical composition.
Compositions suitable for parenteral injection may include pharmaceutically acceptable sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, as well as sterile powders for reconstitution in sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers, diluents, solvents or vehicles include water, ethanol, polyols (propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, glycerol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil), and injectable organic esters, such as ethyl oleate. For example, proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions and by the use of surfactants.
These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preserving, wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing agents. Microbial contamination can be prevented by adding various antibacterial and antifungal agents (e.g., parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, and the like). It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride and the like. Prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical composition can be brought about by the use of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, powders and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is mixed with: at least one inert customary excipient (or carrier), such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate or (a) fillers or extenders, for example starches, lactose, sucrose, mannitol, and silicic acid; (b) binders such as carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose and acacia; (c) humectants, such as glycerol; (d) disintegrating agents, such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain complex silicates and sodium carbonate; (a) solution retarders, such as paraffin; (f) absorption accelerators, such as quaternary ammonium compounds; (g) wetting agents, such as cetyl alcohol and glyceryl monostearate; (h) adsorbents such as kaolin and bentonite; and (i) lubricants, such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate or mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules and tablets, the dosage form may also include buffering agents. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft-filled gelatin capsules and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
Solid dosage forms (e.g., tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules) can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the art. The solid dosage form may also contain opacifying agents. Furthermore, the solid dosage form may be an embedded composition, such that it releases one or more active compounds in certain parts of the intestinal tract in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions which can be used are polymeric substances and waxes. The active compound may also be in microencapsulated form, optionally together with one or more excipients.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active compounds, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1, 3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn germ, olive, castor and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, or mixtures of these substances and the like.
In addition to such inert diluents, the compositions can also contain adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents. Suspensions, in addition to the active compounds, may contain suspending agents as, for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar and tragacanth, or mixtures of these substances, and the like.
After formulation, the solution will be administered in a manner compatible with the dosage formulation and in a therapeutically effective amount. The formulations can be readily administered in a variety of dosage forms, such as injectable solutions, drug-releasing capsules, and the like. For example, for parenteral administration in aqueous solution, the solution should be suitably buffered if necessary, and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic with sufficient saline or glucose. These particular aqueous solutions are particularly suitable for intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous and intraperitoneal administration.
In the jurisdictions where patenting methods for practicing on the human body is prohibited, the meaning of "administering" a composition to a human subject should be limited to specifying a controlled substance that the human subject can self-administer by any technique (e.g., oral, inhalation, topical administration, injection, insertion, etc.). Is intended to be the broadest reasonable interpretation consistent with the law or law defining the subject matter of the patent. In jurisdictions that do not prohibit patenting of methods practiced on humans, the "administration" of a composition encompasses both the methods practiced on humans and the aforementioned activities.
Application method
The compounds described herein can modulate EGFR. In some embodiments, the compound inhibits EGFR dimerization. In various embodiments, the compound induces EGFR degradation.
Although EGFR has been clearly identified as an important molecular target in oncogenes and cancers, there remains a great need and opportunity for improved methods of modulating the activity of this oncogene. EGFR degradation has also been shown to have a profound effect on cell survival even in TKI resistant cells by using cell penetrating peptides that block dimerization (interferon) or siRNA (14, 23, 25, 26). Without being bound by theory, it is speculated that small molecules that inhibit dimerization are selective for the degradation of active EGFR (abundant in tumors), as most normal cells do not express high levels of EGF/EGFR and thus form symmetric dimers that are not expected to be affected by compound 8C. This approach works even in TKI-resistant tumor cells because the dimeric interface in TKI-resistant tumors remains intact (see fig. 1A and 1B). The methods described herein are unique compared to currently approved therapies. Extensive activity has been demonstrated in preclinical models by degrading the EGFR protein rather than simply inhibiting its kinase activity, while the ability to target tumor tissue is improved since the agent only affects EGFR binding to EGF (which is abundant in tumor cells compared to normal tissue), thereby improving safety and therapeutic range.
Methods that degrade EGFR, rather than simply inhibit its kinase activity, overcome the ongoing resistance to oxitinib in non-small cell lung cancer patients. Although lung cancer is the focus of the present application, there is also an additional significant clinical opportunity in other EGFR-driven cancers (e.g., head and neck, colorectal, and glioblastoma). Thus, targeted selective degradation of oncoproteins in tumors represents a new mechanism that may not only inhibit kinase activity, but that may be applicable to other oncogenic proteins (22, 25, 26, 46).
The compounds disclosed herein are particularly advantageous for treating or preventing diseases or disorders caused by aberrant EGFR activity.
As used herein, "aberrant EGFR activity" refers to activity associated with mutations and overexpression of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR). Such mutations and overexpression have been implicated in the development of a variety of cancers (Shan et al, Cell (Cell) 2012,149(4) 860-870).
Given the importance of the biological role of EGFR, the compounds of the present disclosure may be useful in a number of applications in a variety of contexts. For example, and most simply, the active agents of the present disclosure can be used to inhibit dimerization of EGFR in a cell. In this regard, the present disclosure provides a method of inhibiting EGFR dimerization in a cell. The method comprises contacting the cell with an amount of a compound of the present disclosure, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, effective to inhibit dimerization. In some aspects, the cell is part of an in vitro or ex vivo cell culture or an in vitro or ex vivo tissue sample. In some aspects, the cell is an in vivo cell. In certain embodiments, the methods are intended for research purposes, while in other embodiments, the methods are intended for therapeutic purposes.
Inhibition of EGFR dimerization results in increased EGFR degradation. Accordingly, the present disclosure further provides a method of increasing EGFR degradation in a cell. The method comprises contacting the cell with an amount of a compound of the present disclosure, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, effective to increase degradation. In some aspects, the cell is part of an in vitro or ex vivo cell culture or an in vitro or ex vivo tissue sample. In some aspects, the cell is an in vivo cell. In certain embodiments, the methods are intended for research purposes, while in other embodiments, the methods are intended for therapeutic purposes.
As shown herein, compounds that inhibit EGFR dimerization increase tumor cell death. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a method of increasing tumor cell death in a subject. The method comprises administering to the subject a compound of the present disclosure, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in an amount effective to increase tumor cell death.
In accordance with the foregoing, the present disclosure further provides a method of treating cancer in a subject. The method comprises administering to a subject a compound of the present disclosure, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in an amount effective to treat cancer in the subject.
As used herein, the term "treatment" and words related thereto do not necessarily imply 100% or complete treatment. Rather, there are varying degrees of treatment, one of which is considered by those of ordinary skill in the art to have a potential benefit or therapeutic effect. In this regard, the methods of treating cancer of the present disclosure can provide any number or any level of cancer treatment. Furthermore, the treatment provided by the methods of the present disclosure may comprise treating one or more conditions or symptoms of the cancer being treated. Moreover, the treatment provided by the methods of the present disclosure may encompass slowing the progression of the cancer. For example, the methods can treat cancer by reducing the growth of a tumor or cancer, reducing metastasis of tumor cells, increasing cell death of a tumor or cancer cells, and the like.
The cancer treatable by the methods disclosed herein can be any cancer, for example, any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division, which can spread to other parts of the body through the lymphatic system or the bloodstream. In some embodiments, the cancer is a cancer in which EGFR is expressed by cancer cells. In some aspects, the cancer is a cancer in which EGFR protein is overexpressed, a gene encoding EGFR is amplified, and/or an EGFR mutein (e.g., truncated EGFR, point-mutated EGFR) is expressed.
In some aspects, the cancer is a cancer selected from the group consisting of: acute lymphocytic cancer; acute myeloid leukemia; alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma; bone cancer; brain cancer; breast cancer; anus, anal canal, or anorectal cancer; eye cancer; intrahepatic bile duct cancer; joint cancer; neck, gall bladder or pleural cancer; nasal, nasal or middle ear cancer; oral cancer; vulvar cancer; leukemia (e.g., chronic lymphocytic leukemia); chronic medullary carcinoma; colon cancer; esophageal cancer; cervical cancer; gastrointestinal carcinoids; hodgkin lymphoma; hypopharyngeal carcinoma; kidney cancer; laryngeal cancer; liver cancer; lung cancer; malignant mesothelioma; melanoma; multiple myeloma; nasopharyngeal carcinoma; non-hodgkin lymphoma; ovarian cancer; pancreatic cancer; peritoneal, omental and mesenteric cancers; pharyngeal cancer; prostate cancer; rectal cancer; kidney cancer (e.g., Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)); small bowel cancer; soft tissue cancer; gastric cancer; testicular cancer; thyroid cancer; ureteral cancer and bladder cancer.

Pharmacokinetic Studies
Example 44 interaction between purified EGFR kinase Domain and Interferon
The WT-EGFR kinase domain (aa696-1022, active kinase) was expressed and purified from SF9 insect cells. 100ng of pure EGFR was incubated with biotin-bound interferon and, after washing with citrate buffer, bound EGFR was captured using CaptAvidin beads. The specificity of this interaction can be confirmed by co-incubating the reaction with more and more non-biotinylated interferons. Bound EGFR protein was released in Laemmli buffer and resolved by SDS pages. Interferon-bound EGFR was quantified using ImageJ software and shown below the blot. Competitive inhibition of interferon-EGFR binding by cold interferon indicates that interferon binds directly to EGFR (see fig. 2B).
Example 45 Effect of Interferon treatment on EGF-induced dimerization in NCI-H1975 cells
NCI-H1975 cells were treated with 10. mu.M interferon for 1 hour, EGF (30ng/ml) for 30 minutes, and disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS, 150. mu.M) for 30 minutes to crosslink interacting proteins. Lysates were prepared and immunoblotted with anti-EGFR antibody. (see FIG. 3A).

Example 47-development of Compound 8C and confirmation of biological Activity
Interferons have been shown to be effective in the TKI (erlotinib) resistant NCI-H1975 xenograft model (see FIGS. 3A-D) (14). However, due to other challenges in poor PK and peptide drug development, a drug discovery program was developed to develop a small molecule with a similar mechanism of action but better pharmacokinetics (see figures 4A-D). Based on the active EGFR dimer interface, using virtual screens, commercial library acquisition and custom synthesis, a series of new molecules were developed, comprising lead compounds 95(C95) and 67(C67) (see fig. 4A-D). Both lead molecules were active in vivo against the erlotinib resistant NCI-H1975 xenograft model. To test the in vivo activity of EGFR dimer inhibition, the TKI resistance NCI-H1975 EGFR reporter was used. These tumor xenografts show induction of bioluminescence after loss of EGFR activity (47). A single injection of 100mg/kg of C95 resulted in a 2.5-fold induction of the EGFR reporter, which lasted 48 hours. (see fig. 9). The effect of C95 treatment on the reduction of EGFR levels was demonstrated to correlate with changes in bioluminescence. These data indicate that drugs that induce EGFR degradation may be effective against TKI resistant tumors.
Compound 8C was approximately 20-fold more stable than its lead (C95) in mouse and human liver microsomes. Efficacy of compound 8C in UMSCC74B (an EGFR-driven head and neck aggressive tumor model). Tumor-bearing mice were treated daily (Monday through Friday) at a dose of 30mg/kg for one week. The dose was selected based on a single dose PK profile (see figure 8A). This treatment was safe and resulted in significant tumor growth delay (see fig. 10).
Ascitic fluid mediated by oxitinib-resistant Ba/F3 cells in nude mice (by intraperitoneal injection of cells) and solid tumor models (by subcutaneous injection of cells) were also used for efficacy studies. An initial study was performed in the ascites model and the effect of compound 8C was compared to the effect of an equivalent dose of oxitinib (30 mg/kg). Although treatment was initiated only after tumor burden became high, a single 30mg/kg dose of compound 8C extended the lifespan of these mice compared to the ocitinib-treated group (p ═ 0.072, data not shown). The effect of treatment on EGFR was confirmed in cells collected from the same mouse before, 18 hours after, and 24 hours after treatment (see fig. 11).
Example 48 direct interaction between EGFR kinase Domain and Compound 8C
To determine whether compound 8C competes for the same binding site on EGFR, biotin-interferon-avidin coupled beads were incubated with purified EGFR at 37 ℃ for 15 minutes, with or without compound 8C. The agarose beads were spun and then non-specific proteins were removed by washing in citrate buffer. Bound proteins were released in Laemmli buffer and resolved by SDS pages. Competitive inhibition of interferon-EGFR binding by compound 8C indicates that the molecule has a similar mechanism of action (see fig. 5A).
The effect of compound 8C on the thermal stability of purified EGFR was confirmed by thermal stability assay. 100ng of purified EGFR was incubated with DMSO or Compound 8C (10. mu.M) for 30 min at 4 ℃. The samples were subjected to heat inactivation (20 to 44 ℃) for 3 minutes. The soluble fraction was separated from the aggregate by centrifugation at 13,000RPM for 10 minutes at 4 ℃. Approximately 20ng of soluble protein was isolated on a 4-12% bis-tris gel and blotted with anti-EGFR antibody. EGFR band intensity quantified and plotted by ImageJ software (see figure 5B). The effect of compound 8C concentration on thermal stability of EGFR at 44 ℃ was determined in the presence of 0 to 10 μ M compound 8C. Soluble fractions of EGFR were quantified and plotted as described above (see figure 5C).
Preliminary data show that compound 8C may bind to the same site on the EGFR molecule as interferon (see fig. 5A) and may thermally stabilize wild-type and axitinib-resistant (C797S) EGFR. As shown in fig. 5B and 5C, incubation of compound 8C with purified wild-type EGFR kinase domain changed the melting curve, indicating that there was an interaction between EGFR and compound 8C. To determine the effect of compound 8C on the axitinib-resistant EGFR mutants, a cell-based assay was used. Oxitinib or Compound 8C was incubated with whole cell lysates prepared from Ba/F3(C797S-EGFR) cells. Aliquots were heated to different temperatures in the presence of DMSO, 10 μ M axitinib, or compound 8C. After cooling, the samples were centrifuged, the soluble protein fraction was collected and immunoblotted with anti-EGFR antibody (see fig. 6A). Axitinib was effective in altering the melting temperature of purified WT-EGFR (see fig. 5B), but had minimal effect on the C797S mutant EGFR protein (see fig. 6A). As expected, compound 8C effectively altered the melting temperature of the axitinib-resistant EGFR. These data indicate that there may be interactions between compound 8C and EGFR even in EGFR-C797S.
Based on these data, it was hypothesized that compound 8C would remain potent in cells resistant to ocitinib due to the C797S mutation. By using these isogenic 6-Ba/F3 cell types (containing TKI-sensitive and drug-resistant cells, Table I), it was demonstrated that Compound 8C remains active in the nanomolar range of each cell line. This is expected from this class of drugs, since the effect of the drug is not associated with EGFR kinase mutations. Inhibition of EGF-induced EGFR dimerization and protein expression by compound 8C was also demonstrated in all of these cells. Data shown are from ocitinib-resistant Ba/F3 cells with the C797S mutation (see fig. 6B-6E).
Example 49-validation of Selective Activity of Compound 8C in Lung cancer cell lines
To test the selectivity of compound 8C, the ocitinib-resistant lung cancer cell lines (PC9-AZR and HCC827-AZR) and normal lung fibroblasts (MRC5) were treated with different concentrations and cell survival was determined using the clonogenic survival assay (see fig. 7A and table 3 below). These preliminary data indicate that compound 8C selectively kills cancer cells driven by EGFR. It was determined whether the response to compound 8C correlated with inhibition of EGF-induced dimerization and EGFR degradation. For this purpose, PC9-AZR cells were treated with 1. mu.M Compound 8C for 1 hour, EGF (30ng/ml) for 30 minutes and disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS, 150. mu.M) for 30 minutes to crosslink the interacting proteins. Lysates were prepared and immunoblotted with anti-EGFR antibody. Figure 7B shows that 1 μ M compound 8C can inhibit EGFR dimerization and induce EGFR degradation. Overall, these results confirm the discovery of Ba/F3 cells.

Example 51-in vivo pharmacokinetics of Compound 8C in tumors and plasma
Short-term PK studies with i.p. injections of the agent showed that compound 8C selectively accumulated in the tumor despite the fact that it had been rapidly cleared from plasma (see fig. 8A and 8B). The peak concentration of compound 8C reached in tumors (. gtoreq.7 hours 69.7. + -. 15.68. mu.M) was much greater than 99% killing of TKI resistantThe concentration required for the tumor cells to be drug-resistant.

For intraperitoneal injection, compound 8C was formulated at 10mg/mL in PBS with 5% DMSO by adjusting the pH to 5.5. For oral administration, a homogeneous suspension was prepared in 20% tween80 with brief sonication. Initially, a single dose of 100mg/kg of Compound 8C was administered intraperitoneally (FIG. 8A) or gavage into nude mice carrying human NCI-H1975 tumor xenografts (>150mm3) (FIG. 8B). Mice were euthanized at 0, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 7 hours, 15 hours, and 24 hours. Tumor and plasma samples were collected. In the case of mice with oral gavage, plasma and tumor samples were collected at only 7 hours, 15 hours and 24 hours. The concentration of compound 8C in plasma and tumors was determined and the data obtained was plotted as molar concentration.
Example 52 in vivo validation of EGFR reporter
This method was verified with compound C95. Briefly, once the tumor reaches about 100mm3The mice were imaged to obtain the basal bioluminescence and the effect of the lead compound 95 at different time points (see figure 9A). The change in bioluminescence was quantified and plotted (see fig. 9B). Finally, the effect of treatment on EGFR protein levels was confirmed by immunoblotting 48 hours after treatment.

Example 54-effect of compound 8C in an ocitinib-resistant tumor model.
To test the activity of compound 8C against the axitinib-resistant EGFR-driven tumors, an ascites tumor model was developed using Ba/F3-AZR cells (L858R + T790M + C797S-EGFR) as previously reported (65). 500 ten thousand BA/F3-AZR cells were injected by intraperitoneal injection into 6-week-old female nude mice. Mice developed ascites tumors and an average survival time of 20 days was observed. To test the efficacy of compound 8C compared to oxitinib, 15 mice injected with Ba/F3-AZR cells were injected. Mice were randomized into three
Example 55-preliminary safety testing of compound 8C in a mouse model.
A preliminary safety test was performed using C57BL6 mice for a 30mg/kg daily dose for one week. The overall health and body weight of a group of 6 mice was monitored during the treatment period. A modest decrease in body weight of 3.5 ± 2.4% was observed after one week of treatment, but mice fully recovered
