Step 1 : Preparation of r3-(5-Trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-yloxy)-phenyll-methanol
To a solution of S-trifluoromethyl^-chloro-pyridine (150.0 g, 0.826 mol) in DMF (1.9 L) was added 3-hydroxy-phenyl-methanol (112.5 g, 0.906 mol) and of potassium carbonate (171.0 g, 1.237 mol). The solids were washed into the flask with 100 mL of DMF. The stirred mixture was heated to 95-105 0C for 5 h. It was cooled to ambient temperature and then poured into 5 L of stirred ice-water. The mixture was extracted with etheπhexane (2:1 , 1.5 L, 1.0 L). The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to dryness to give the product (222.5 g, 100%).

Step 2: Preparation of 2-(3-chloromethyl-phenoxy)-5-trifluoromethylpyridine
To a solution of [3-(5-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-yloxy)-phenyl]-methanol (281.0 g, 1.044 moles) in dichloromethane (2.0 L) at -5 0C was added dropwise over a 25 min period thionyl chloride (136.6 g, 1.148 mol). A few minutes into the addition, a white substance separated but this went into solution several minutes later. The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 h and then was concentrated in vacuo to near dryness (357 g). 200 mL of toluene was added to the residue and the solution was again concentrated in vacuo to near dryness. 200 mL of toluene was added and some solid (-8 g) was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to -390 g of dark yellow liquid.

Step 3: Preparation of [3-(5-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-yloxy)-benzyll-phosphonic acid diethyl ester
A solution of 2-(3-chloromethyl-phenoxy)-5-trifluoromethylpyridine (-298 g, -1.036 mol) containing some toluene in triethyl phosphite (267.0 g, 1.551 mol) was heated to 135 °C-140 0C for 7 h. Boiling began at -110 0C and continued throughout the reaction. The solution was left standing at ambient temperature overnight and it solidified. The solid was suspended in etheπhexane (1 :2, 450 mL), and the suspension was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 h and filtered. The solid was rinsed with etherhexane (1 :2, 150 mL) and pressed dry under suction. Further drying in vacuo at 32 0C for 7 h provided 286.3 g (71 % – 2 steps from crude chloride) of product. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to remove the low boiling solvents. Triethyl phosphite (36.0 g, 0.217 mol) was added and the solution was heated to 130 0C for 2 h. The reaction was cooled to 100 0C and 300 mL of heptane was added slowly. A solid separated. As the temperature decreased to -30 0C, 150 mL of ether was added. The resulting suspension was left standing at ambient temperature overnight and was filtered. The solid was rinsed with etherheptane (1 :2, 75 mL) and pressed dry under suction. Further drying in vacuo at 32 0C for 7 h afforded and additional 35.7 g (9%) of product. Total yield = 322 g (80%). Anal. Calcd for C17H19 F3NO4P (389.31 ) : C, 52.45; H, 4.92; N, 3.60; F, 14.64; P, 7.96. Found : C, 52.73; H, 5.04; N, 3.58; F, 14.35; P, 7.74; chloride, <0.10%.

Step 4: Preparation of 4-f3-(5-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-yloxy)-benzylidenel-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester
To a stirred mixture of [3-(5-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-yloxy)-benzyl]-phosphonic acid diethyl ester (155.7 g, 0.40 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (800 mL) at -10 0C was added dropwise over a 5 min period 1.0 M tBuOK in tetrahydrofuran (420.0 mL, 0.42 mol). The temperature rose to -3 °C during the addition. The resulting red mixture was stirred between -6 0C and -10 0C for 2.5 h. A solution of tert-butyl 4-oxopiperidine-1-carboxylate (79.7 g, 0.40 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (300 mL) was added dropwise over a 5 min period. The temperature rose to 2 0C. The resulting red mixture was stirred at temperatures reaching 21 0C over the next 16 h. TLC showed product with no phosphonate present. The mixture was poured into 3.5 L of stirred ice-water. The resulting suspension was stirred at ambient temperature for 2.5 h and then was extracted with successive 1.0 L and 0.6 L portions of dichloromethane. The combined extracts were washed with 500 mL of brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to a thick semi solid residue. 250 mL of methyl t-butyl ether was added. The suspension was stirred at -10 0C for 2 h and filtered. Drying in vacuo at 25 CC for 66 h provided 85 g (49%) of product. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to a damp solid residue. This was taken up in 100 mL of methyl t-butyl ether. To the stirred suspension was added 300 mL of heptane and the resulting suspension was stirred at -10 0C for 2 h. The solid was filtered off, rinsed with 50 mL of methyl t-butyl etherheptane (1 :3) and pressed dry under suction. Further drying in vacuo at 34 °C for 6 h provided an additional 34.2 g (19.5%) of product. Total yield = 119.2 g (68.5%).

Step 5: Preparation of 2-(3-piperidin-4-ylidenemethyl-phenoxy)-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridine, hydrochloride

No significant temperature change was noted. The resulting suspension was stirred at temperatures reaching 22 0C over the next 17 h. The suspension was filtered. The solid was washed with EtOAc (500 mL) and pressed as dry as possible under suction. The damp solid was dried in vacuo at 33 0C for 7 h to afford 225 g (84%) of product.

Step 6: Preparation of N-pyridin-3-yl-4-(3-(f5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-ylloxy}benzylidene)piperidine-1-carboxamide
To a mixture of 2-(3-piperidin-4-ylidenemethyl-phenoxy)-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridine (80.0 g, 0.216 mol) and phenyl pyridin-3-ylcarbamate (48.6 g, 0.227 mol) in acetonitrile (650 mL) was added dropwise diisopropylethyl amine (55.8 g, 0.432 mol). A solution formed after -45 min of stirring. The slightly turbid solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 h. TLC showed a prominent product spot with traces of both starting materials and two other fast moving spots. The solution was concentrated in vacuo to a viscous oil. This was partitioned between dichloromethane (600 mL) and water (500 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with 200 mL of dichloromethane. The combined organic layers were washed with successive portions of 500 mL of 5% sodium hydroxide, and 200 mL of water, then dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to 139.5 g of a viscous oil. This was dissolved in 350 ml_ of warm (50 0C) methyl t-butyl ether. Soon after a solution formed, solid began separating. The crystallizing mixture was kept at -10 0C for 4 h and filtered. The solid was rinsed with 60 ml_ of methyl t-butyl ether and pressed dry under suction. Further drying in vacuo at 28 0C for 16 h and then at 35 °C for 6 h provided 93.2 g (95%) of product.

(R)-Azasetron besylate (SENS-401) is an orally active calcineurin inhibitor. (R)-Azasetron besylate reduces Cisplatin (HY-17394)-induced hearing loss and cochlear damage.

Arazasetron Besylate is the besylate salt form of the R-enantiomer of azasetron, a benzamide derivative and selective serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine5-HT) receptor and calcineurin antagonist, with potential antinauseant and antiemetic, and otoprotective activities. Upon administration, arazasetron selectively binds to and inhibits 5-HT subtype 3 receptors (5-HT3R) located peripherally on vagus nerve terminals and centrally in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) of the area postrema, which may result in suppression of nausea and vomiting. R-azasetron also targets and inhibits the activation of calcineurin, thereby preventing inner ear lesions, nerve degeneration, induction of apoptosis and sensory hair loss. This may prevent hearing loss. Calcineurin activation plays a key role in structural degeneration, swelling, synaptic uncoupling and the induction of apoptosis in the inner ear leading to hair cell loss and hearing loss.

N-[5-[[4-[5-chloro-4-fluoro-2-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)anilino]pyrimidin-2-yl]amino]-2-[(3R)-3-(dimethylamino)pyrrolidin-1-yl]-4-methoxyphenyl]prop-2-enamide

FDA Zegfrovy, 7/2/2025


To treat locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test, with disease progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy

Sunvozertinib (DZD9008) is a potent ErbBs (EGFR, Her2, especially mutant forms) and BTK inhibitor. Sunvozertinib shows IC50s of 20.4, 20.4, 1.1, 7.5, and 80.4 nM for EGFR exon 20 NPH insertion, EGFR exon 20 ASV insertion, EGFR L858R and T790M mutations, and Her2 Exon20 YVMA, and EGFR WT A431, respectively (patent WO2019149164A1, example 52).

Sunvozertinib, sold under the brand name 舒沃哲, among others is an anti-cancer medication used for the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer.[2][3] It is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor.[2][4]

Sunvozertinib was approved for medical use in the United States in July 2025.[1]

Medical uses

In the US, sunvozertinib is indicated for the treatment of adults with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test, whose disease has progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy.[1]

Side effects

The US FDA prescribing information for sunvozertinib includes warnings and precautions for interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, gastrointestinal adverse reactions, dermatologic adverse reactions, ocular toxicity, and embryo-fetal toxicity.[1]

History

Sunvozertinib is being developed by Dizal Pharmaceutical.[5] In China, it was conditionally approved in 2023 for the treatment of NSCLC and full approval is contingent on results of phase 3 clinical trials.[6] In the United States, it has been designated by the Food and Drug Administration as a breakthrough therapy for patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLCs with an EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation.[7]

Efficacy was evaluated in WU-KONG1B (NCT03974022), a multinational, open-label, dose randomization trial.[1] Eligible participants had locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion mutations with disease progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy.[1] The primary efficacy population was in 85 participants who received sunvozertinib 200 mg orally once daily with food until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.[1]

The US Food and Drug Administration granted the application for sunvozertinib priority review and breakthrough therapy designations.[1]

PAPER

https://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/29/7/1448

Sunvozertinib, a novel TKI manufactured by Dizal Pharmaceuticals, represents an advancement arising from the need to overcome resistance mechanisms and thereby replaces previous generations of EGFR inhibitors. As marketed under the proprietary name DZD9008, this therapeutic entity embodies an innovative modality aimed at addressing NSCLC characterized by distinct mutations within the EGFR gene [24]. The pharmacological efficacy of sunvozertinib is predicated upon its specific capacity to inhibit EGFR with Exon 20 mutations, alongside targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) with Exon 20 insertions. This targeted inhibition is of significance due to the diminished responsiveness of cancer cells with these mutations to earlier generations of EGFR inhibitors. By competitively obstructing the ATP-binding site of these mutated tyrosine kinases, sunvozertinib effectively hinders the proliferative signaling pathways, exhibiting potent anti-tumor activity (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03974022). Preclinical models have demonstrated sunvozertinib’s capacity to inhibit tumor growth, especially in NSCLC models harboring Exon 20 insertions. Moreover, its substantiated ability to traverse the blood–brain barrier has provided favorable support for its prospective efficacy in managing central nervous system metastases. In clinical settings, sunvozertinib has shown promising efficacy, with ongoing trials further assessing its utility as a targeted intervention for individuals presenting specific EGFR mutations. The toxicity profile has been comparable to other EGFR inhibitors, with manageable side effects that do not significantly diminish its therapeutic value [25].

The preparation of sunvozertinib is shown in Scheme 1 [26]. SUNV-001 and SUNV-002 engage in nucleophilic substitution reactions under alkaline conditions, yielding the formation of SUNV-003 through a subsequent nucleophilic substitution process involving SUNV-004, ultimately leading to the generation of SUNV-005SUNV-005 and SUNV-006 consecutively engage in nucleophilic substitution reactions, culminating in the formation of SUNV-007. The nitro moiety present in SUNV-007 undergoes a reduction process to yield an amino functional group, through the utilization of hydrogen gas as the reducing agent and platinum carbon as the catalytic mediator, ultimately affording the formation of SUNV-008. The amino moiety present in SUNV-008 and the acyl chloride functionality of SUNV-009 engage in a condensation reaction, leading to the formation of the amide compound SUNV-010SUNV-010 is subjected to an elimination reaction in alkaline environments, leading to the formation of sunvozertinib.

Pritelivir mesylate is an antiviral drug currently under development, specifically targeting herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2). It functions by inhibiting the viral helicase-primase enzyme, a crucial component for HSV replication. It is being investigated as a potential treatment for various herpes infections, including those resistant to traditional antivirals like acyclovir. 

Key aspects of Pritelivir mesylate:

  • Mechanism of Action:Pritelivir is a helicase-primase inhibitor, meaning it blocks the activity of an enzyme essential for the replication of herpes viruses. 
  • Target Viruses:It is effective against both HSV-1 and HSV-2, the viruses responsible for cold sores and genital herpes, respectively. 
  • Potential for Resistance:Pritelivir has shown promise in preclinical studies against acyclovir-resistant strains of HSV, making it a potential alternative for patients with drug-resistant infections. 
  • Clinical Trials:Pritelivir is currently in phase II clinical trials, with ongoing research into its effectiveness and safety. 
  • Route of Administration:It is being investigated for oral, topical, and vaginal administration. 
  • Research and Development:Pritelivir is being developed by AiCuris Anti-infective Cures, building upon research from Bayer. 

Pritelivir (development codes AIC316 or BAY 57-1293) is a direct-acting antiviral drug in development for the treatment of herpes simplex virus infections (HSV). This is particularly important in immune compromised patients. It is currently in Phase III clinical development by the German biopharmaceutical company AiCuris Anti-infective Cures AG. US FDA granted fast track designation for pritelivir in 2017 and breakthrough therapy designation 2020.

SCHEME

Pritelivir mesylate, an antiviral drug used to treat herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections, is synthesized through a series of chemical reactions, including palladium-catalyzed coupling, ester saponification, and amide coupling reactions. The mesylate salt is then formed by reacting the free base with methanesulfonic acid

Detailed Synthesis Steps:

  1. 1. Diaryl Acetic Acid Synthesis:Diaryl acetic acid reagents are synthesized using palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. These reactions involve the use of organometallic intermediates derived from halo-aryl esters. 
  2. 2. Ester Saponification:The ester group in the synthesized compounds is then converted to a carboxylic acid group through saponification. 
  3. 3. Amide Coupling:The resulting carboxylic acids are coupled with thiazolyl sulfonamides using amide coupling conditions to form the pritelivir molecule. 
  4. 4. Salt Formation:The pritelivir free base is then reacted with methanesulfonic acid to form the mesylate salt, which is the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). 

Key Aspects of Pritelivir Mesylate Synthesis:

  • Targeted Mechanism:Pritelivir mesylate inhibits the herpes simplex virus by targeting the viral helicase-primase complex, essential for DNA replication, unlike traditional antivirals that target DNA polymerase. 
  • Salt and Polymorph Screening:An extensive salt and polymorph screening is performed to optimize the pharmaceutical development of pritelivir, resulting in various salt forms including the mesylate, maleate, and sulfate. 
  • Solubility and Stability:Pritelivir mesylate is a BCS Class II drug substance with pH-dependent solubility. It exhibits high solubility below pH 3 and poor solubility at neutral pH. 
  • Formulation Considerations:Due to its limited water solubility, pritelivir mesylate is often formulated with solvents like DMSO, PEG300, Tween-80, and saline or with cyclodextrins like SBE-β-CD. 
  • Clinical Trials:Pritelivir mesylate is currently under extensive study to evaluate its efficacy and safety profile, with promising results in early clinical trials.

Likewise, EP 2 598 502 Al describes the crystalline mono mesylate monohydrate salt of N- [5-(aminosulfonyl)-4-methyl- 1 ,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridinyl)phenyl]-acetar^ in a definite particle size distribution and a specific surface area range, which has demonstrated increased long term stability and release kinetics from pharmaceutical compositions, as well as to pharmaceutical compositions containing said N-[5- (aminosulfonyl)-4-methyl- 1 ,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridinyl)phenyl]acetaniide mono mesylate monohydrate having the afore-mentioned particle size distribution and specific surface area range.

WO 2013/045479 Al describes an improved and shortened synthesis process of N-[5- (ammosulfonyl)-4-methyl-l,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridinyl)phenyl]acetaniide and the mesylate salt thereof by using boronic acid derivatives or borolane reagents while avoiding toxic organic tin compounds. Moreover, also the crystalline mesylate monohydrate salt of N- [5 -(aminosulfonyl)-4-methyl- 1 ,3 -thiazol-2-yl] -N-methyl-2- [4-(2-pyridinyl)-phenyl] – acetamide is described therein with increased long-term stability and release kinetics from pharmaceutical compositions thereof.

Said pritelivir is an innovative, highly active and specific inhibitor of herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections. As a compound derived from the chemical class of thiazolylamides, pritelivir is active against both types of herpes simplex virus causing labial and genital herpes, respectively, and retains activity against viruses which have become resistant to marketed drugs. Pritelivir has a mode of action that is distinct from other antiviral agents currently in use for treatment of HSV infections (i.e., the nucleoside analogues acyclovir and its prodrug valacyclovir as well as famciclovir, the prodrug of penciclovix). Whereas nucleoside analogs terminate ongoing DNA chain elongation through inhibition of viral DNA polymerase, pritelivir prevents de novo synthesis of virus DNA through inhibition of the helicase-primase complex. In addition, it does not require activation within an HSV infected cell by viral thymidine kinase and therefore, is also protective to uninfected cells.

With the context of the invention, similar expressions which all would denote the compound pritelivir are “BAY 57-1293”, “AIC090096” and “AIC316”.

Likewise, the terms ”pritelivir”, “BAY 57-1293”, “AIC090096” and “AIC316″ or the compound *’N-[5-(ammosulfonyl)-4-methyl-l,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridm phenyl] -acetamide” would reflect throughout the text a compound having the structural formula:

Description of the manufacturing process of N-r5-(aminosulfonyl)-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridinyl)-phenyl]-acetamide free base hemihydrate

PP-acetic acid and aminothiazole sulfonic acid amide are mixed in THF/NMP, the mixture is cooled and then EDC x HCl is added in portions. The reaction mixture is stirred for several hours, and then added slowly to purified water. The suspension is stirred and filtered; the product cake is washed with purified water and dried at room temperature in a nitrogen stream and then under vacuum. Purified water is added slowly at elevated temperature, the suspension is stirred for several hours. The suspension is cooled to 5°C and stirred further for several hours. The product is isolated by filtration and washed with purified water. The product is dried at 65°C under vacuum until the criterion for water content is reached. A major advantage of the synthesis of free base of N-[5-(aminosulfonyl)-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridinyl)-phenyl]-acetamide hemihydrate is the absence impurities related to the presence of mesylate ester that might be present in the N-[5-(aminosulfonyl)-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methyl-2-[4-(2-pyridinyl)-phenyl]-acetamide mesylate.

Chemistry of Pritelivir

Synthesis of pritelivir and its analogues is based on the reported methods in the literature (18−20) and presented in Figure 4. A simple retrosynthetic disconnection of the target compound suggests a coupling of the thiazolyl sulfonamide and diaryl acetic acid (Figure 4a). During the course of development an optimized route applying the principles of green chemistry was developed and will be used for the commercial phase.

Figure 4. Synthesis of pritelivir (16) and analogues: (a) disconnection approach to target molecules; (b) synthesis of thiazolyl sulfonamide reagents; (c) synthesis of diaryl acetic acids; (d) synthesis of some representative examples of pritelivir and analogues. (18−20)

The synthesis of the thiazolyl sulfonamide reagents begins with a reaction of chloroacetone (17) and potassium thiocyanide to give an intermediate ketone which was cyclized to the thiazole 18 by treatment with gaseous hydrochloride (Figure 4b). Chlorosulfonylation with chlorosulfonic acid and thionyl chloride resulted in the sulfonyl chloride 19 that was converted to the corresponding sulfonamides 20 and 21 after treatment with ammonia or methylamine, respectively. The 2-chloro substituent in 20 and 21 was converted to the methyl amine in an SNAr reaction to deliver the building blocks 2223. Diaryl acetic acid reagents were synthesized using palladium catalyzed coupling reactions with organometallic intermediates formed from the corresponding halo-aryl esters (Figure 4c). Ester saponification then delivered the corresponding carboxylic acids (e.g., 26 and 28Figure 4c). Finally, the target molecules, for instance, 51116, and 9, were obtained using amide coupling reaction conditions with corresponding diaryl acetic acids and the thiazolyl sulfonamides (Figure 4d). (18−20)

Medical use

Pritelivir is currently being developed for the treatment of immunocompromised patients with mucocutaneous HSV lesions that are resistant to acyclovir.

HSV in immunocompromised patients

Although HSV infection is very common in the general population, it rarely causes serious disease and is effectively contained by the immune system. In those with a weakened immune system such as transplant recipients, people receiving chemo- or radiotherapy, or HIV patients, an active HSV infection can cause disease in 35-68% of patients and may become severe or even life-threatening.[1]

Standard of care treatments

HSV treatment revolves around the use of nucleoside analogues (NA) which act via the viral DNA polymerase, causing DNA chain termination and prevention of viral replication. First-line treatment is generally acyclovir or its prodrug valacyclovir. Resistance to acyclovir is more common in HSV patients with weakened or suppressed immune systems, affecting between 4 and 25% of cases.[2][3][4][5][6]

Resistance to standard treatments

If HSV drug resistance is mediated by mutation(s) of the viral UL23 gene, which encodes the viral thymidine kinase (TK), then the pyrophosphate analogue foscarnet may be effective as a rescue treatment, since it does not require activation by TK. The use of foscarnet is commonly accompanied by restrictive toxicity, particularly nephrotoxicity.[7] If the virus also acquires resistance to foscarnet, then there is currently no FDA approved treatment.

Clinical research

Completed phase II clinical trials in otherwise healthy patients with genital herpes

  • A Double-blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Dose-finding Trial to Investigate Different Doses of a New Antiviral Drug in Subjects With Genital HSV Type 2 Infection.[8][9]
  • A Double-blind, Double Dummy, Randomized Crossover Trial to Compare the Effect of “AIC316 (Pritelivir)” 100 mg Once Daily Versus Valacyclovir 500 mg Once Daily on Genital HSV Shedding in HSV-2 Seropositive Adults.[10][11]

Ongoing phase II / phase III clinical trials with pritelivir

A phase II / III multinational, comparator-controlled, clinical trial in immunocompromised patients with acyclovir-resistant mucocutaneous lesions is listed on ClinicalTrials.gov[12] and EudraCT.[13]

Pharmacology

Mechanism of action

Pritelivir is a member of the helicase-primase inhibitors (HPI), a novel class of direct-acting antiviral drugs acting specifically against HSV-1 and HSV-2.[14][15] As the name suggests, the drugs act through inhibition of the viral helicase primase complex, encoded by the UL5 (helicase), UL8 (scaffold protein) and UL52 (primase) genes, which is essential for HSV replication.[16] The helicase primase complex is encoded separately from the viral DNA polymerase (encoded by the UL30 gene). Because HPIs i) do not target the viral DNA polymerase and ii) do not require activation by the viral thymidine kinase enzyme (encoded by the UL23 gene), mutations causing resistance to NAs are not protective against HPIs. Similarly, resistance to HPIs does not confer resistance to NAs.

CSF-1R inhibitor Pimicotinib (ABSK021) of Abbisko Therapeutics, HV1XI8HST2

Pimicotinib (ABSK021), an oral, highly potent and selective small molecule blocker of the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF-1R) independently discovered by Abbisko Therapeutics. A number of studies have shown that blocking the CSF-1R signaling pathway could effectively modulate and change macrophage functions, and potentially treat many macrophage-dependent human diseases.[1]

Pimicotinib is under investigation in clinical trial NCT05804045 (Study of Pimicotinib (ABSK021) for Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumor (MANEUVER)).

History

In December 2023, Abbisko Therapeutics entered into a licensing agreement for pimicotinib in all indications for China rights with Merck KGaA.[2] [3][4]

In April 2023, a global phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pimicotinib in patients with tenosynovial giant cell tumor was started (NCT05804045).[5]

Following with pimicotinib for tenosynovial giant cell tumor treatment in phase III, pimicotinib has also entered into a phase II trial in June 2023 for cGVHD treatment in China.[6]

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of NMPA granted pimicotinib breakthrough therapy designation (BTD) for the treatment of tenosynovial giant cell tumor patients that are not amenable to surgery in January 2023 and July 2022, respectively.[7]

Research

Pimicotinib is being investigated as a treatment for tenosynovial giant cell tumor,[8][9] chronic graft-versus-host-disease (cGVHD), and pancreatic cancer.

PALAZESTRANT


PALAZESTRANT

CAS 2092925-89-6

OP-1250, VU35KM56Q4

449.6 g/mol, C28H36FN3O

(1R,3R)-2-(2-fluoro-2-methylpropyl)-3-methyl-1-[4-(1-propylazetidin-3-yl)oxyphenyl]-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-b]indole

Palazestrant (OP-1250) is an investigational drug being developed for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. It is a small molecule with a dual mechanism of action, acting as both a complete estrogen receptor antagonist and a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD). This means it can block estrogen receptor activity and also degrade the receptor itself, potentially offering a more effective treatment approach. 

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

  • Dual Mechanism:Palazestrant is a complete ER antagonist, meaning it blocks all estrogen receptor activity. It is also a SERD, which means it degrades the estrogen receptor, preventing it from functioning. 
  • Oral Administration:Palazestrant is an orally available drug. 
  • Clinical Trials:Palazestrant is currently in clinical trials, including Phase 1/2 and Phase 3 studies, for the treatment of ER+, HER2- metastatic breast cancer. 
  • Combination Therapy:Palazestrant is being evaluated in combination with other drugs like CDK4/6 inhibitors (e.g., ribociclib). 
  • Promising Results:Preliminary results from clinical trials have shown promising antitumor efficacy and favorable pharmacokinetic properties for palazestrant. 
  • FDA Fast Track Designation:The FDA has granted Fast Track designation for the treatment of ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer that has progressed following endocrine therapy with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. 
  • Brain Metastasis:Palazestrant has shown activity in brain metastasis animal models. 
  • ESR1 Mutation Status:Palazestrant has demonstrated activity against both wild-type and mutant ER (ESR1) breast cancer models. 

Palazestrant is an investigational new drug which is being evaluated for the treatment of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer, with a dual mechanism of action as both a complete estrogen receptor antagonist (CERAN) and a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD). This orally bioavailable small molecule has demonstrated potent activity against both wild-type and mutant forms of the estrogen receptor.[1]

Orforglipron (LY-3502970) is an oral, non-peptide, small-molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist developed as a weight loss drug by Eli Lilly and Company.[1] It was discovered by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., then was licensed to Lilly in 2018.[1]

Orforglipron is easier to produce than existing peptide GLP-1 agonists and is expected to be cheaper.[2]

Mechanism

Orforglipron is a small-molecule, partial GLP-1 receptor agonist affecting the activity of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP); its effects are similar to the actions of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) for reducing food intake and lowering blood glucose levels.[1][3]

Clinical trials

The results of Phase I safety and Phase II ascending-dose clinical trials enrolling people with obesity or type 2 diabetes were published in 2023.[4][5]

Orforglipron has a half-life of 29 to 49 hours across the doses tested and is taken once per day by mouth without food or water restrictions.[3]

Safety and dosing trials showed that the incidence of adverse events in orforglipron-treated participants was 62–89%, mostly from gastrointestinal discomfort (44–70% with orforglipron, 18% with placebo) having mild to moderate severity.[6] The most common side effects of orforglipon are diarrheanausea, upset stomach, and constipation.[1][6]

The ability of orforglipron to reduce blood sugar levels and body weight was judged favorable compared to dulaglutide.[6]

Phase III ACHIEVE-1 trial

In April 2025, results from a Phase III clinical trial involving 559 people with type 2 diabetes who took an oral orforglipron pill, injectable dulaglutide or a placebo daily for 40 weeks showed that orforglipron produced a reduction in blood glucose levels by 1.3 to 1.6 percentage points from a starting level of 8%.[1][7]

More than 65% of participants taking the highest dose of orforglipron achieved a reduction of hemoglobin A1C level by more than or equal to 1.5 percentage points, bringing them into the non-diabetic range as defined by the American Diabetes Association.[1] People taking the highest dose of the pill lost 8% of their weight, or around 16 lb (7.3 kg), on average after 40 weeks.[1][8]

Side effects were similar to those seen with other GLP-1 agonists, and no significant liver problems were observed.[1]

Example 1

tert-Butyl [(2R)-1-(4-bromophenoxy)propan-2-yl]carbamate (1)

      
 (MOL) (CDX)
      Under the nitrogen atmosphere, 1-bromo-4-fluorobenzene (100 g, 0.57 mol, 1 equiv.), N-methylpyrrolidone (500 mL), and D-alaninol (51.5 g, 0.69 mol, 1.2 equiv.) were added, and then potassium tert-butoxide (96.1 g, 0.86 mol, 1.5 equiv.) was added thereto at 40° C. or less. The resulting mixture was stirred at an internal temperature of about 65° C. for 3 hours and cooled to 20° C. or less. After that, isopropyl acetate (500 mL) and water (1000 mL) were added thereto, and the resulting mixture was stirred. After standing and separating, the aqueous layer was extracted twice with isopropyl acetate (500 mL), and all the organic layers were combined. The combined organic layer was washed twice with water (500 mL), and the obtained organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to 300 mL. The operation of further adding ethanol (1000 mL) thereto and concentrating the obtained mixture under reduced pressure to 300 mL was repeated twice. To this solution, tetrahydrofuran (200 mL) was added, and the resulting mixture was cooled to 5° C. or less. tert-Butyl dicarbonate (162 g, 0.74 mol, 1.3 equiv.) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (100 mL), and the resulting solution was added dropwise to the mixture at 6° C. or less over about 2 hours. The resulting mixture was stirred at 5° C. or less for 1 hour, and then raised to about 20° C. and stirred overnight. Ethanol (230 mL) was added thereto, and then water (800 mL) was added dropwise over 1.5 hours. The resulting mixture was stirred at about 50° C. for 1 or more hours, and then gradually cooled to 25° C., and stirred overnight. The precipitated solid was filtered and washed with a mixed solution of ethanol (230 mL) and water (270 mL). The solid was dried under vacuum at an external temperature of 40° C. to obtain the title compound (1) (170 g).

Example 2

6-Fluoroimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine methanesulfonate (2)

      
 (MOL) (CDX)
      Under the nitrogen atmosphere, benzyltriethylammonium chloride (445 g, 1.95 mol, 1 equiv.) and 6-chloroimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine (300 g, 1.95 mol, 1 equiv.) (available from Combi-Block or the like) were successively added to dimethyl sulfoxide (1500 mL). Cesium fluoride (534 g, 3.51 mol, 1.8 equiv.) was further added thereto, and then the resulting mixture was stirred at an internal temperature of 79° C. to 81° C. for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, toluene (1500 mL) and sodium bicarbonate (48 g, 0.59 mol, 0.3 equiv.) were added to the mixture, and then water (1500 mL) was added thereto. Acetonitrile (600 mL) was added to the mixture, the resulting mixture was stirred, and then the organic layer and the aqueous layer were separated. Furthermore, the operation of extracting this aqueous layer with a mixed solution of toluene (1500 mL) and acetonitrile (300 mL) was repeated three times, and all the organic layers were combined. The combined organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to adjust the liquid volume to 2400 mL. Activated carbon (30 g) moistened with toluene (150 mL) was added thereto. The resulting mixture was stirred around 25° C. for 1 hour, and then filtered and washed with toluene (750 mL). Acetonitrile (900 mL) was added thereto, and then methanesulfonic acid (188 g, 1.95 mol, 1 equiv.) was added dropwise at an internal temperature of 22° C. to 37° C. over 1 hour. The resulting mixture was stirred at 27° C. to 31° C. for 1.5 hours, and then the precipitated solid was filtered and washed with toluene (900 mL). The solid was dried under reduced pressure at an external temperature of 40° C. for 5 hours to obtain the title compound (2) (396.9 g).

Taletrectinib is an oral, next-generation ROS1 TKI developed by Nuvation Bio Inc. for the treatment of ROS1-positive NSCLC. In 2024, the NMPA approved taletrectinib for adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic ROS1-positive NSCLC, regardless of prior ROS1TKI treatment [47]. Under an exclusive license agreement, Innovent Biologics will commercialize taletrectinib in China under the brand
name DOVBLERON®. Taletrectinib exerts its pharmacological action through the mechanism of selectively impeding the ROS1 receptor tyrosine kinase, which effectively disrupts the signaling cascades which are responsible for facilitating the growth and survival of cancer cells in ROS1-positive NSCLC. This inhibition of the ROS1 receptor tyrosine kinase is a key event in the drug’s mode of action, as it specifically targets the molecular processes that drive the progression of the disease in ROS1-positive NSCLC cases [48]. The NMPA granted approval founded on the data sourced from the crucial Phase 2 TRUST – I study. This study substantiated that patients administered with taletrectinib achieved sustained responses and extended PFS. Regarding safety, taletrectinib boasted a generally good tolerability. It presented an advantageous safety profile and favorable tolerability characteristics, as evidenced by the low incidences of dose reduction and treatment discontinuation triggered by adverse effects. [49]. Overall, taletrectinib represents a promising therapeutic option for patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC, offering efficacy in both TKI-naïve and TKI-pretreated populations, including those with CNS metastases [50–52].
The synthesis of Taletrectinib, illustrated in Scheme 12, commences with Mitsunobu coupling of Tale-001 and Tale-002 to afford Tale-003, which then undergoes Suzuki coupling with Tale-004 constructing
Tale-005 [53]. Sequential acidolysis/deprotection of Tale-005 ultimately delivers Taletrectinib

Mechanism of action

Olgotrelvir is a prodrug that first converts to its active form, AC1115.[2][5] AC1115 is believed to work by inhibiting the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (also known as 3C-like protease). This protein is a crucial enzyme responsible for cleaving viral polyproteins into functional subunits essential for viral replication. By binding to the active site of the protease, the drug prevents this cleavage process, effectively halting viral assembly and impeding the virus’s ability to produce future virions.[1][2][3][5]

Olgotrelvir also appears to inhibit cathepsin L (CTSL),[2][5] a protein implicated in facilitating viral entry of SARS-CoV-2 into the host cell.[2][5][6]

Clinical trials

In September 2023, the drug’s developer, Sorrento Therapeutics, announced top-line data that olgotrelvir had met its primary endpoints in a phase III clinical trial that enrolled 1,212 patients with mild or moderate COVID-19. The drug appeared to shorten the recovery time of 11 COVID-19 symptoms in olgotrelvir-treated patients by 2.4 days on average compared to patients in the placebo group. The drug was also shown to reduce the viral load at day 4 in treated patients compared to the placebo group. Side effects were mostly mild and infrequent, with the most common being nausea (1.5% vs. 0.2%) and skin rash (3.3% vs. 0.3%), which occurred more often in the olgotrelvir group.[7][8][9]
