Abstact

We describe our efforts to introduce structural diversity to a previously described triazole-containing N1-carboline series of bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) inhibitors. N9 carbolines were designed to retain favorable binding interactions that the N1-carbolines possess. A convergent synthetic route enabled modifications to reduce clearance, enhance physicochemical properties, and improve the overall in vitro profile. This work led to the identification of a potent BET inhibitor, (S)-2-{8-fluoro-5-[(3-fluoropyridin-2-yl)(oxan-4-yl)methyl]-7-[4-(2H3)methyl-1-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl]-5H-pyrido[3,2-b]indol-3-yl}propan-2-ol (10), a compound with enhanced oral exposure in mice. Subsequent evaluation in a mouse triple-negative breast cancer tumor model revealed efficacy at 4 mg/kg of N9-carboline 10.
