Garsorasib


Garsorasib

Chemical Formula: C32H32F2N8O2

Exact Mass: 598.2616

Molecular Weight: 598.66

D 1553, Chia Tai Tianqing, CHINA 2024, APPROVALS 2024, Anfangning,

Garsorasib is an orally available inhibitor of the oncogenic KRAS substitution mutation, G12C, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, garsorasib selectively targets the KRAS G12C mutant and inhibits KRAS G12C mutant-dependent signaling. KRAS, a member of the RAS family of oncogenes, serves an important role in cell signaling, division and differentiation. Mutations of KRAS may induce constitutive signal transduction leading to tumor cell growth, proliferation, invasion, and metastasis.

Example 5. Preparation and Solid state characterization of Compound 2

Step 1: To a mixture of 2, 6-dichloro-5-fluoronicotinic acid (23 g, 0.11 mol) in dichloromethane (300 mL) was added dimethylformamide (0.2 mL) . Oxalyl chloride (33 g, 0.26 mol) was then added slowly over 30 minutes at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for an hour and then concentrated to give an oil which was dissolved in dioxane (50 mL) . The solution was added to ammonium hydroxide (150 mL) at 0℃ over 30 minutes. The resulting mixture was stirred at 0℃ for 30 minutes and then filtered. The filter cake was washed with cooled water (50 mL) and dried to afford 2-1.

[0183]

Step 2: A solution of 2-1 (11 g, 52.6 mmol) in 1, 2-dichloroethane (80 mL) was treated with oxalyl chloride (8.68 g, 68.4 mmol) . The mixture was stirred at 80℃ for 45 minutes and the reaction was concentrated. The residue was dissolved in acetonitrile (100 mL) , cooled to -10℃, and a solution of 1-1 (9.6 g, 55.2 mmol) in THF (30 mL) was added. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The solution was diluted with a sat. aqueous NaHCO 3solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (petroleum ether to petroleum ether/ethyl acetate = 4/1) to afford 2-2.

[0184]

Step 3: To a stirred solution of 2-2 (7.9 g, 19.3 mmol) in THF (100 mL) at -20℃ was added KHMDS (38.6 mL, 1 M in THF, 38.6 mmol) . The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction was quenched with sat. aqueous NH 4Cl solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel (petroleum ether to petroleum ether/ethyl acetate = 2/1) to afford 2-3.

[0185]

Step 4: To a solution of 2-3 (746 mg, 2 mmol) and DIEA (387 mg, 3 mmol) in MeCN (20 mL) was added POCl 3(367 mg, 2.4 mmol) dropwise at room temperature. The resulting mixture was stirred at 80℃ for 45 minutes, followed by addition of DIEA (3.87 g, 30 mmol) and a solution of 1-5 (1.58 g, 4 mmol) in MeCN (10 mL) dropwise at -10℃. After stirring at room temperature for 1 hour, the reaction was quenched with ice-water and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel (dichloromethane to dichloromethane/methanol = 10/1) to afford 2-4.

[0186]

Step 5: A mixture of 2-4 (8 mg, 0.15 mmol) , 3-fluoro-2- (4, 4, 5, 5-tetramethyl-1, 3, 2-dioxaborolan-2-yl) aniline (42 mg, 0.18 mmol) , Pd (dppf) Cl 2(13 mg, 0.018 mmol) and KOAc (40 mg, 0.41 mmol) in dioxane (3 mL) /H 2O (1 drop) was stirred at 80℃ for 2 hours under nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na 2SO 4and concentrated. The residue was purified by a Prep-HPLC (acetonitrile with 0.05%of TFA in water (30%to 65%) to afford 2. LCMS (ESI, m/z) : [M+H] += 599.1; HNMR (400 MHz, methanol-d 4, ppm) : δ 8.73 (s, 1H) , 8.26-8.22 (m, 1H) , 7.15-7.09 (m, 1H) , 6.84-6.74 (m, 1H) , 6.53 (d, J = 8.4 Hz, 1H) , 6.42-6.38 (m, 1H) , 6.30-6.24 (m, 1H) , 5.83-5.78 (m, 1H) , 5.01 (brs, 1H) , 4.91-4.83 (m, 1H) , 4.53-4.29 (m, 2H) , 3.96-3.89 (m, 1.5H) , 3.54-3.50 (m, 0.5H) , 1.82-1.75 (m, 1H) , 1.73-1.66 (m, 1H) , 1.47 (d, J = 6.8 Hz, 3H) , 1.37-1.27 (m, 3H) , 1.16-1.05 (m, 4H) , 1.03-0.97 (m, 2H) , 0.88-0.83 (m, 2H) . FNMR (376 MHz, methanol-d 4, ppm) : δ -114.9 (1F) , -125.6 (1F) .

[0187]

Compound 2 prepared via the above procedure was slurried in EtOAc, and filtered to provide Compound 2 in a crystalline form A. About 1.1%of residual EtOAc was detected by 1H-NMR, corresponding to weight loss at 120 –290 ℃ in TGA (FIG. 5B) . Two overlapped endothermic peaks were observed by DSC (FIG. 5B) . Compound 2 in Form A was heated to 250 ℃ and DSC profile of the residual solid was unchanged, suggesting the overlapped peak was due to melting with crystal form transformation. Thus, the starting material was an anhydrate.

[0188]

Form A was very soluble in DCM (> 92 mg/mL) and soluble (20 –33 mg/mL) in MeOH, butanone, THF, ACN and acetone. In other solvents, Form A was practically insoluble

Garsorasib (D-1553), marketed as Anfangning, is an orally bioavailable KRAS G12C inhibitor jointly developed by InventisBio and Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group [40]. This compound is specifically engineered to target the KRAS G12C mutation, a prevalent oncogenic driver in multiple cancers, including NSCLC. In 2024, the NMPA granted conditional approval for Garsorasib to treat adult patients with advanced NSCLC harboring the KRAS G12C mutation, who have undergone at least one prior systemic therapy regimen [41]. Garsorasib exerts its pharmacological effects through selective and irreversible binding to the KRAS G12C mutant protein, thereby immobilizing it in an inactive GDP-bound conformation. This binding event effectively disrupts the activation of downstream signaling path
ways, including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), resulting in diminished tumor cell proliferation and survival. The clinical efficacy of Garsorasib has been
confirmed in a Phase II clinical trial (NCT05383898) involving patients with advanced NSCLC harboring the KRAS G12C mutation. The trial reported an ORR of 52.0 % and a DCR of 88.6 %. Additionally, the
median PFS was observed to be 9.1 months, while the median overall survival (OS) reached 14.1 months, both indicative of significant antitumor activity within this patient cohort. In terms of safety, Garsorasib
exhibited a generally favorable tolerability profile [42]. The most common treatment-related adverse events included diarrhea, nausea, and elevated liver enzymes, which were predominantly of grade 1 or 2
severity.The synthesis of Garsorasib, depicted in Scheme 10, initiates with Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of Gars-001 and cyclopropylboronic acid, affording Gars-002 [43]. Gars-003 undergoes nucleophilic acylation with acryloyl chloride to yield Gars-004. TFA-mediated Boc deprotection of Gars-004 affords Gars-005. In parallel, Gars-006 is sequentially acylated with oxalyl chloride and aminated with ammonia to form Gars-007. DCE-mediated acylation of Gars-007, followed by concentration and coupling with Gars-002 in MeCN, produces Gars-008.KHMDS-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of Gars-008 generates Gars-009. DIEA-catalyzed intermediate generation enables nucleophilic coupling with Gars-005 to assemble Gars-010. Final Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of Gars-010 with 3-fluoro-2-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)aniline delivers Garsorasib.

SYN

Fulzerasib is an orally active KRAS G12C inhibitor developed by Innovent Biologics. It selectively targets the KRAS G12C mutation in NSCLC [36,37]. In 2024, the NMPA approved Fulzerasib (brand name: Dupert) for treating adult patients with advanced NSCLC harboring the KRAS G12C mutation who have progressed after prior systemic therapy. Fulzerasib irreversibly binds to the KRAS G12C mutant protein, locking it in an inactive GDP-bound state, thereby inhibiting downstream signaling pathways such as MAPK and PI3K. This action effectively suppresses cancer cell proliferation and survival. The clinical efficacy of Fulzerasib was demonstrated in a Phase II trial (NCT05009303) involving patients with advanced NSCLC and KRAS G12C mutations [38]. In the clinical trial, Fulzerasib demonstrated an ORR of 49.1 % and a disease control rate (DCR) of 90.5 %, with a median PFS of 9.7 months, reflecting robust antitumor efficacy. The agent exhibited favorable tolerability, characterized by manageable toxicity. Treatment-related adverse events were predominantly mild to moderate in severity, with the most frequently reported being diarrhea, nausea, and elevated liver enzymes [38]. The safety profile was consistent with other KRAS G12Cinhibitors, making it a viable therapeutic option.
The synthetic route of Fulzerasib, shown in Scheme 9, initiates with H2SO4-mediated decyanation of Fulz-001, affording Fulz-002 [39]. Nitrosation of Fulz-002 with NaNO2 yields Fulz-003, which undergoes
Suzuki-Miyaura coupling with (2-fluoro-6-methoxyphenyl)boronic acid to construct Fulz-004. Phosphochlorination with POCl3 under DIPEA catalysis converts Fulz-004 to Fulz-005. Nucleophilic displacement with methyl (R)-1-N-Boc-piperazine-3-carboxylate assembles Fulz-006. Fe-mediated tandem Mannich cyclization/nitro reduction transforms Fulz-006 into bicyclic amine Fulz-007. Methylation with MeI generates Fulz-008, followed by TFA-mediated Boc cleavage to afford Fulz-009.
Acrylation with acryloyl chloride produces Fulz-010. Selective O-demethylation followed by chiral HPLC resolution delivers Fulzerasib

Golidocitinib is a pharmaceutical drug for the treatment of cancer. In June 2024, it was given conditional approval in China for the treatment of relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.[1]

Golidocitinib is classified as a Janus kinase inhibitor.[2][3]

Golidocitinib is an orally available inhibitor of Janus-associated kinase 1 (JAK1), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, golidocitinib inhibits JAK-dependent signaling and may lead to an inhibition of cellular proliferation in JAK1-overexpressing tumor cells. The JAK-STAT (signal transducer and activator of transcription) signaling pathway is a major mediator of cytokine activity and is often dysregulated in a variety of tumor cell types. Additionally, JAK1 may be a primary driver of STAT3 phosphorylation and signaling, which plays a role in neoplastic transformation, resistance to apoptosis, tumor angiogenesis, metastasis, immune evasion, and treatment resistance.

GOLIDOCITINIB is a small molecule drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of II (across all indications) and has 4 investigational indications.

Golidocitinib, also known as DZD4205, is an oral, selective Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) inhibitor developed by Dizal Pharmaceutical. It is designed to target aberrant JAK/STAT signaling pathways implicated in
various malignancies, particularly peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) [31]. In 2024, Golidocitinib was granted conditional approval by the NMPA under the brand name Gao Ruizhe, for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL who have received at least one line of systemic therapy. This agent exerts its therapeutic effects through selective inhibition of JAK1, thereby disrupting the JAK/STAT signaling pathway [32]. This inhibition leads to reduced proliferation and increased apoptosis of malignant T-cells in PTCL [33]. The clinical efficacy of Golidocitinib was demonstrated in the Phase II JACKPOT8 Part B study (NCT04105010), a multinational, single-arm trial evaluating its use in patients with r/r PTCL [34]. The investigation demonstrated an ORR of 44.3 % in patients with PTCL, with sustained efficacy noted across diverse PTCL subtypes. In terms of safety profile, Golidocitinib exhibited favorable tolerability. Hematologic adverse events such as anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia were the predominant treatment-related toxicities, yet they were effectively controlled through dose modifications and supportive interventions.
The synthetic route of Golidocitinib, shown in Scheme 8, initiates with amino protection of Goli-001 to afford Goli-002 [35]. Bromination of Goli-002 with Br2 yields Goli-003, which undergoes Miyaura bor
ylation with Goli-004 to form Goli-005. Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of Goli-005 with Goli-006 generates Goli-007. Deprotection of Goli-007 produces Goli-008, which undergoes p-TsOH-mediated nucleophilic
substitution with Goli-009 to yield Goli-010. Reduction of Goli-010 affords Goli-011, followed by amidation with Goli-012 to deliver Golidocitinib. Concurrently, Goli-012 is prepared via Tf2 0- Mediated
nucleophilic substitution between Goli-013 and Goli-014.

Oritinib represents a third-generation EGFR TKI engineered by Nanjing Sanhome Pharmaceutical. This agent specifically targets both EGFR-sensitizing mutations and the T790 M resistance mutation,
thereby addressing resistance mechanisms linked to prior-generation EGFR-TKIs. In 2024, the NMPA granted approval for Oritinib to treat adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have experienced disease progression during or following EGFR-TKI therapy and possess confirmed EGFR T790 M mutation-positive status. The mechanism of action of Oritinib involves irreversible binding to mutant EGFR, including the T790 M variant, which in turn suppresses down stream signaling pathways responsible for tumor cell proliferation and survival [28]. The mechanism of Oritinib effectively inhibits tumor growth in patients harboring T790M-mediated resistance to first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs. Clinical efficacy was established in a Phase II trial (NCT03823807) enrolling patients with EGFR T790 Mmutation-positive NSCLC who had experienced disease progression following prior EGFR-TKI therapy. This study documented an ORR of 60.5 % and a median PFS of 9.6 months, highlighting substantial anti
tumor efficacy in this specific patient cohort. In terms of safety, Oritinib exhibited favorable tolerability. The predominant treatment-related adverse events were rash, diarrhea, and elevated liver enzymes, pri
marily of mild (Grade 1) or moderate (Grade 2) severity. No dose-limiting toxicities were encountered, and the overall safety profile aligned with those observed for other third-generation EGFR-TKIs [29].
The synthetic route of Oritinib Mesylate, shown in Scheme 7, begins with nucleophilic substitution reaction between Orit-001 and Orit-002 to yield Orit-003, which further reacts with Orit-004 via nucleophilic substitution to produce Orit-005 [30]. Orit-005 subsequently undergoes another nucleophilic substitution with Orit-006 to generate Orit-007. Following this, Orit-007 is reduced to form Orit-008. Finally, an amidation reaction between Orit-008 and Orit-009 affords Oritinib.

Envonalkib, also known as TQ-B3139, is a novel small-molecule TKI, developed by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group. It targets ALK, ROS1, and c-Met kinases, exhibiting potent antitumor activity against cancers harboring these genetic alterations. In 2024, the NMPA approved Envonalkib under the brand name Anluoqing for the treatment of adult patients with ALK-positive locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have not received prior ALK inhibitor therapy [24]. Envonalkib exerts its therapeutic effects through selective inhibition of the kinase activities of ALK, ROS1, and c-Met, thereby interrupting the downstream signaling pathways that are crucial for tumor cell proliferation and survival [25]. The inhibition of these targets results in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells。The clinical efficacy of Envonalkib was evidenced in a Phase III randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial (NCT04009317), which compared Envonalkib with crizotinib in treatment-naïve patients with ALK-positive advanced NSCLC [25,26]. In the reported study, Envonalkib demonstrated a me dian PFS of 24.87 months, which was markedly superior to the 11.60 months achieved with crizotinib (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.47, p < 0.0001). Notably, in patients harboring brain metastases, Envonalkib exhibited a
central nervous system objective response rate (CNS-ORR) of 78.95 %, a substantial improvement over the 23.81 % observed with crizotinib. In terms of safety profile, Envonalkib was generally well-tolerated. Treat ment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of Grade ≥3 were noted in 55.73 % of patients receiving Envonalkib, contrasting with the 42.86 % incidence in the crizotinib cohort. The predominant TRAEs encompassed elevated liver enzymes, neutropenia, and gastrointestinal symptoms, all of which
were amenable to effective management through appropriate support ive care measures. The regulatory approval of Envonalkib thus in troduces a novel therapeutic modality for patients with ALK-positive NSCLC, effectively addressing a significant unmet medical need within this patient population [25].
The synthesis of Envonalkib, illustrated in Scheme 6, initiates with Mitsunobu coupling of Envo-001 and Envo-002, affording Envo-003 [27]. Sequential reduction and NBS-bromination converts Envo-003 to
Envo-005 via Envo-004. Miyaura borylation of Envo-005 constructs Envo-006, which undergoes Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with Envo-007 followed by deprotection to deliver Envonalkib. In parallel,
Envo-009 reacts with Envo-010 through Buchwald-Hartwig cross coupling to form Envo-011. This intermediate is brominated to produce Envo-007, which is used in the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling with Envo-006

FDA 8/12/2025. Brinsupri, To treat non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis

Brensocatib is an investigational new drug that is being evaluated to treat bronchiectasis.[1] It is a dipeptidyl-peptidase I (also known as cathepsin C) inhibitor.[2]

A phase 3 clinical trial, known as the ASPEN trial, was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of brensocatib in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.[3] Brensocatib tablets (Brinsupri) by Insmed Inc. was approved by the FDA in August 2025 after it received breakthrough therapy designation and was reviewed on a priority timeline.

Brensocatib is an orally bioavailable, small molecule, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1), with potential anti-inflammatory activity. Upon oral administration, brensocatib reversibly binds to and inhibits the activity of DPP1, thereby inhibiting the activation of neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs), including neutrophil elastase (NE), during neutrophil maturation. This inhibits the activity of NSPs, and may prevent lung inflammation and injury and improve lung function associated with NSPs-induced respiratory diseases. NSPs, serine proteases released by neutrophils during inflammation, is upregulated in a number of respiratory diseases.

Unecritinib is an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of the receptor tyrosine kinases anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), C-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1) and Met (hepatocyte growth factor receptor; HGFR; c-Met), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration,unecritinib targets, binds to and inhibits the activity of ALK, ROS1 and c-Met, which leads to the disruption of ALK-, ROS1- and c-Met-mediated signaling and the inhibition of cell growth in ALK-, ROS1- and c-Met-expressing tumor cells. ALK, ROS1 and c-Met, overexpressed or mutated in many tumor cell types, play key roles in tumor cell proliferation, survival, invasion and metastasis.

UNECRITINIB is a small molecule drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of II (across all indications) and has 3 investigational indications.

Unecritinib, developed by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group, is a novel small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It targets c-rosoncogene 1 (ROS1), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and c-mesen
chymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET) kinases, exhibiting potent antitumor activity against cancers harboring these genetic alterations. In 2024, the NMPA approved Unecritinib under the brand name Anbaini for the treatment of adult patients with ROS1-positive locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Unecritinib exerts its therapeutic effects through selective inhibition of the kinase activities of ROS1, ALK, and c-MET, which effectively disrupts the downstream signaling pathways that are crucial for the proliferation and survival of tumor cells. Consequently, this inhibition induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells that express these specific targets [13]. The clinical efficacy of Unecritinib was established in a Phase II single-arm, multicenter clinical trial (NCT03750739) enrolling patients with ROS1-positive advanced NSCLC. Among 111 evaluable patients, an ORR of 80.2 % was achieved, along with a median PFS of 16.5 months. These findings underscore the robust antitumor activity of Unecritinib in this specific patient cohort. In terms of safety, Unecritinib exhibited a
favorable tolerability profile. The most frequently reported treatment-related adverse events were neutropenia, leukopenia, vomit ing, and nausea, which were predominantly of mild (Grade 1) or mod
erate (Grade 2) severity. Importantly, no dose-limiting toxicities were observed, and the maximum tolerated dose was not established, further supporting its favorable safety profile. The approval of Unecritinib represents a novel therapeutic strategy for patients with ROS1-positive NSCLC, effectively addressing a significant unmet medical need within this population [13].
The synthesis of Unecritinib, depicted in Scheme 3, initiates with acetylation of Unec-001 to yield Unec-002, which undergoes deprotection to afford Unecritinib [14]

Tunlametinib, an oral selective inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 and 2 (MEK1/2), was developed by Shanghai KeChow Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. Marketed under the brand name
Keluping, it received conditional approval from the NMP in 2024 for the treatment of patients with advanced melanoma harboring NRAS mutations, particularly those who have not responded to anti-PD-1/PD-L1therapies [1]. Tunlametinib exerts its antitumor effects by targeting the MEK1/2 kinases within the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway, thereby disrupting downstream signaling cascades and inhibiting tumor cell growth and proliferation [2]. Its clinical efficacy was demonstrated in a Phase II pivotal registration study (NCT05217303) involving patients with advanced NRAS-mutant melanoma [3]. The study reported a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 34.8 % and a median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 4.2 months. These findings suggest that Tunlametinib holds promise as a treatment option for NRAS-mutant melanoma, including in patients who have failed immunotherapy. In terms of safety, Tunlametinib has been generally well-tolerated [4]. Adverse events frequently encountered during treatment primarily consist of increased blood creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels, diarrhea, and edema. Additionally, warnings and precautions pertinent to Tunlametinib therapy encompass decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), skin toxicity, ocular toxicity, interstitial lung disease,
gastrointestinal reactions, and elevated CPK levels [5].
The synthetic pathway of Tunlametinib, illustrated in Scheme 1, begins with carboxylation of Tunl-001 to yield Tunl-002 [6]. Nucleophilic substitution of Tunl-002 with Tunl-003 then produces Tunl-004,
which undergoes esterification to form Tunl-005. Subsequent nucleophilic substitution between Tunl-05 and Tunl-006 generates Tunl-007. This intermediate undergoes azidation to afford Tunl-008, followed by
reduction to Tunl-009. Treatment of Tunl-009 with DDQ converts it to Tunl-010, which is deprotected to yield Tunl-011. Cycloaddition of Tunl-011 with Tunl-012 forms Tunl-013. Iodination of Tunl-013 gives
Tunl-014, which is hydrolyzed to produce Tunl-015. Amidation of Tunl-015 with Tunl-016 yields Tunl-017, and its subsequent acidolysis completes the synthesis of Tunlametinib.

Befotertinib (D-0316) is an orally active EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Befotertinib can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells. Befotertinib can be used in the research of EGFR T790M-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Befotertinib is an orally available inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant form T790M, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, befotertinib specifically binds to and inhibits EGFR T790M, a secondarily acquired resistance mutation, which prevents EGFR-mediated signaling and leads to cell death in EGFR T790M-expressing tumor cells. Compared to some other EGFR inhibitors, befotertinib may have therapeutic benefits in tumors with T790M-mediated drug resistance. EGFR, a receptor tyrosine kinase that is mutated in many tumor cell types, plays a key role in tumor cell proliferation and tumor vascularization.

Befotertinib (Surmana). Befotertinib (17), an oral, highly selective, third generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) developed by Betta Pharmaceuticals and InventisBio, was approved in China in May 2023 for the second-line treatment of patients
with locally advanced or metastatic nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with positive EGFR T790 M mutation who have disease progression on previous EGFR TKI therapy. 140 139 NSCLC
has a high incidence and disease burden in China, which has spurred the development of multiple EGFR TKIs by Chinese companies.
Achromatography-free process route to befotertinib (17) has been reported in the patent literature by researchers at InventisBio (Scheme 29), although details about scale and yields were not provided.
141 142 The reaction sequence closely follows that of osimertinib, a third generation EGFR inhibitor
that was first approved in 2015 and was covered in our previous review.
Osimertinib and befotertinib share a common backbone, differing only in N-substitution on the indole ring.
Friedel−Crafts arylation of 1H-indole with 2,4-dichloropyrimidine (17.1) gave the 3-pyrimidinyl indole 17.2. The trifluoroethyl moiety in indole 17.4 was introduced via Nalkylation of 17.2 with triflate 17.3. This was followed by an SAr reaction with nitroaniline 17.5 to provide amino pyrimidine 17.6. Next, N,N,N′-trimethylethylenediamine (17.7) displaced the electrophilic aryl fluoride in an SNArreaction to generate intermediate 17.8. The acrylamide moiety was installed using a three-step sequence: hydrogenolytic
reduction of the nitro group to the corresponding aniline, acylation with 3-chloropropanoyl chloride, and immediate elimination to the acrylamide. Mesylate salt formation and crystallization furnished befotertinib mesylate (17) in eight steps from 17.1.
