Abstract

Replacement of the piperazine sulfonamide portion of the PI3Kα Inhibitor AMG 511 (1) with a range of aliphatic alcohols led to the identification of a truncated gem-dimethylbenzylic alcohol analog, 2-(5-(4-amino-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-6-((5-fluoro-6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)amino)pyridin-3-yl)propan-2-ol (7). This compound possessed good in vitro efficacy and pharmacokinetic parameters and demonstrated an EC50 of 239 ng/mL in a mouse liver pharmacodynamic model measuring the inhibition of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced Akt Ser473 phosphorylation in CD1 nude mice 6 h post-oral dosing.
