2.3.2 Chemical synthesis

The synthesis of zoliflodacin described below was reported in 2015 [47]. The first step, starting from 2,3,4-trifluorobenzaldehyde, consists of the protection of the aldehyde function to an acetal group. After deprotonation using n-BuLi, formylation is performed with DMF to introduce an aldehyde group, which is then converted to oxime using hydroxylamine. Chlorination with N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS), followed by reaction with L-alaninol and intramolecular SNAr allows the formation of the benzisoxazole ring. The oxazolidinone moiety is obtained using 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI). The deprotection of the aldehyde is then performed in acidic conditions followed by another SNAr at the ortho position of the aldehyde using (2R,6S)-2,6-dimethylmorpholine. Finally, a Knoevenagel condensation between the aldehyde and hexahydropyrimidine-2,4,6-trione is performed, followed by an intramolecular rearrangement consisting in an [1-5] hydride shift and then intramolecular cyclization leading to zoliflodacin (Fig. 5).

Medical uses

Zoliflodacin is indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea in people who weigh at least 77 pounds (35 kg).[2]

Susceptible bacteria

Zoliflodacin has shown in vitro activity against the following species of bacteria:[4] Staphylococcus aureusStreptococcus pneumoniaeHaemophilus influenzaeMoraxella catarrhalisNeisseria gonorrhoeae, and Chlamydia trachomatis

Adverse effects

Animal studies showed that zoliflodacin might cause birth defects, pregnancy loss, or male fertility problems.[2]

Mechanism of action

It has a mechanism of action which involves inhibition of bacterial type II topoisomerases.[4][5][6]

History

Compound PNU-286607, discovered in a high-throughput screen for compounds with antibiotic activity.

A high throughput screening campaign aimed at identifying compounds with whole cell antibacterial activity performed at Pharmacia & Upjohn identified compound PNU-286607, a progenitor of Zoliflodacin, as having the desired activity.[7]

Subsequent research at AstraZeneca led to the discovery that the nitroaromatic in PNU-286607 could be replaced with a fused benzisoxazole ring,[8] which allowed for an exploration of different groups at the 3-position of the heterocycle. This work was continued at Entasis Pharmaceuticals where extensive optimization resulted in the discovery of ETX0914.[4]

Researchers tested zoliflodacin in a study with 930 participants who had uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea.[2] Two-thirds of participants received a single 3-gram dose of zoliflodacin dissolved in water.[2] The other third received the standard treatment of ceftriaxone shot plus azithromycin pill.[2] The study measured how well the medicines cleared the bacteria 4 to 8 days after treatment.[2] The study showed 91% of participants who took zoliflodacin were cured and 96% of participants who received the standard treatment were cured.[2]

Society and culture

Zoliflodacin was approved for medical use in the United States in December 2025.[3]

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted the application for zoliflodacin fast track, qualified infectious disease product, and priority review designations for the uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea indication.[2] The FDA approval for zoliflodacin was granted to Entasis Therapeutics.[2]

Names

Zoliflodacin is the international nonproprietary name.[9]

Zoliflodacin is sold under the brand name Nuzolvence.[3]

N-((1S,2R)-2-((4-bromo-2-(methylcarbamoyl)-6-nitrophenyl)amino)cyclohexyl)isoquinoline-4-carboxamide, and its structure is as follows:

Example 1: Preparation of Compound 1 

[0189]A free, amorphous compound 1, a yellow solid, was prepared according to the method disclosed in paragraphs [00121]-[00128] of WO2022150962A1, and was used in the following examples. The specific synthetic steps are shown in steps a to d:

The reagents and conditions for steps a to d are further described below: (a) 1-[bis(dimethylamino)methylene]-1H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b]pyridinium 3-oxide hexafluorophosphate (HATU), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA), CH₂Cl₂ 

or 

dichloromethane (DCM), 0°C, 2 h; (b) DIPEA, dimethylformamide (DMF), 80°C, 16 h; (c) 3M ethyl hydrochloride (HCl·EA), CH₂Cl₂ , 

h ; (d ) HATU, DIPEA, DMF, room temperature, 12 h. 

[0191]Step a: Synthesis of N-methyl-5-bromo-2-fluoro-3-nitrobenzamide (I-1) 

[0192]A solution of 5-bromo-2-fluoro-3-nitrobenzoic acid (0.8 g, 3.80 mmol) in dichloromethane (20 mL) was stirred at 0 °C. Then, HATU (2.0 g, 5.25 mmol), DIPEA (1.88 mL, 11.4 mmol), and methylamine hydrochloride (0.31 g, 4.5 mmol) were added to the reaction mixture. The mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 2 hours until it became clear. The mixture was extracted three times with dichloromethane, and the combined organic layers were washed with a saturated brine solution. The organic phase was then dried over anhydrous Na₂SO₄ and concentrated 

under vacuum. Finally, the mixture was purified by chromatography to give compound I-1 (0.8 g, 76% yield) as a yellow solid.

[0193]Step b: Synthesis of tert-butyl 2-((4-bromo-2-(methylcarbamoyl)-6-nitrophenyl)amino)cyclohexyl)carbamate (I-2) 

[0194]A solution of compound I-1 (0.8 g, 2.9 mmol) in 15 mL of DMF was stirred at room temperature. Then, tert-butyl ((1S,2R)-2-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate (0.75 g, 3.5 mmol) (the corresponding stereoisomer of this reagent can be used to synthesize the stereoisomer of compound I-2) and DIPEA (1.44 mL, 8.7 mmol) were added to the reaction mixture. The mixture was heated to 80 °C and stirred for 16 hours. The mixture was extracted three times with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layers were washed with saturated salt solution. The organic phase was then dried over anhydrous Na₂SO₄ and concentrated under vacuum to give compound 

I -2 as a yellow solid, requiring no further purification.

Step c: Synthesis of 2-(2-aminocyclohexyl)amino)-5-bromo-N-methyl-3-nitrobenzamide hydrochloride (I-3) 

[0196]A solution of compound I-2 (90 mg, 0.19 mmol) (or the corresponding stereoisomer) in anhydrous dichloromethane (6 mL) was stirred at room temperature. Then, HCl (4 mL, 3 M in ethyl acetate) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The mixture was concentrated under vacuum to give compound I-3 as a yellow solid, requiring no further purification. 

[0197]Step d: Synthesis of N-((1S,2R)-2-((4-bromo-2-(methylcarbamoyl)-6-nitrophenyl)amino)cyclohexyl)isoquinoline-4-carboxamide 

[0198]At room temperature, a solution of the corresponding isoquinoline-4-carboxylic acid (1 equivalent) and HATU (1.5 equivalent) in anhydrous DMF (6 mL) was stirred. Then, compound I-3 and DIPEA (5.0 equivalent) were added. The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The mixture was extracted three times with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layers were washed with saturated brine. The organic phase was then dried over anhydrous Na₂SO₄ and 

concentrated under vacuum. Finally, the mixture was purified by chromatography to give compound 1 as a free amorphous solid in yellow form.

  • N-[2-[4-[[6-[2-[[2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-1,3-dioxoisoindol-4-yl]amino]ethyl]-2-azaspiro[3.3]heptan-2-yl]methyl]cyclohexyl]-5-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)-1,3-benzothiazol-6-yl]-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-2-carboxamide

antineoplastic, IRAK degrader-1, AQ5UXV5646

Zomiradomide is an orally active PROTAC degrader for IRAK4 (DC50=6 nM), thereby inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway. Zomiradomide acts also as a molecular glue, recruiting Ikaros and Aiolos, and mediating their degradation (DC50 for Ikaros is 1 nM), thereby activating the type I IFN signaling pathway.

Zomiradomide is a small molecule protein degrader of interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) and the immunomodulatory imide drug (IMiD) substrates Ikaros (IKZF1) and Aiolos (IKZF3), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, zomiradomide modulates the E3 (ubiquitin) ligase and targets IRAK4, Ikaros and Aiolos for ubiquitination. This induces proteasome-mediated degradation of IRAK4, Ikaros and Aiolos. The degradation of IRAK4 inhibits IRAK4-mediated signaling and prevents the activation of IRAK4-mediated nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB) signaling and decreases the expression of inflammatory cytokines and certain pro-survival factors. This inhibits the proliferation of IRAK4-overactivated tumor cells, which are found in cells harboring MYD88 activating mutations or those with overactivated toll-like receptor (TLR) pathways. The degradation of the transcription factors Ikaros and Aiolos leads to a downregulation of other proteins, including interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4), which upregulates type I interferon signaling and further inhibits NF-kB activation. This leads to apoptosis and the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. IRAK4, a serine/threonine-protein kinase that plays a key role in both the TLR and IL-1R signaling pathways, is activated though the adaptor protein MYD88 and links the TLR and IL-1R signaling pathway to the NF-kB pathway.

cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, antineoplastic, AZD 4573, UNII-E5XSP3X68B

Zemirciclib is a selective, short-acting inhibitor of the serine/threonine cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9), the catalytic subunit of the RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) elongation factor positive transcription elongation factor b (PTEF-b; PTEFb), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon intravenous administration, zemirciclib binds to and blocks the phosphorylation and kinase activity of CDK9, thereby preventing PTEFb-mediated activation of RNA Pol II, leading to the inhibition of gene transcription of various anti-apoptotic proteins. This induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and leads to a reduction in tumor cell proliferation. CDK9 regulates elongation of transcription through phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II at serine 2 (p-Ser2-RNAPII). It is upregulated in various tumor cell types and plays a key role in the regulation of Pol II-mediated transcription of anti-apoptotic proteins. Tumor cells are dependent on anti-apoptotic proteins for their survival.

AZD-4573 is a small molecule drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of II and has 1 investigational indication.

Zelenirstat


Zelenirstat

CAS 1215011-08-7

MF C24H30Cl2N6O2S, 537.5 g/mol

2,6-dichloro-N-[1,5-dimethyl-3-(2-methylpropyl)-1Hpyrazol-4-yl]-4-[2-(piperazin-1-yl)pyridin-4-yl]benzene-1-sulfonamide
N-myristoyltransferase inhibitor, antineoplastic, PCLX 001, DDD86481, CCI 002, DDD 86481

Zelenirstat (PCLX-001) is an investigational, oral small-molecule drug that inhibits N-myristoyltransferases (NMTs), enzymes crucial for adding fatty acids to proteins, a process vital for cell signaling and membrane attachment. Developed by Pacylex Pharmaceuticals, it’s being tested for various cancers, showing promise in hematologic cancers like AML and lymphomas, as well as solid tumors, by disrupting cancer cell survival and growth, with early trials indicating good safety and potential efficacy. 

How it works:

  • Targets NMT enzymes: Zelenirstat blocks NMT1 and NMT2, preventing myristoylation (adding a fatty acid) to proteins.
  • Disrupts cancer cell processes: This inhibition interferes with essential cell signaling and stability, especially in cancer cells where NMT expression is altered, leading to cell death (apoptosis).
  • Affects mitochondrial function: It also disrupts mitochondrial complex I and oxidative phosphorylation, vital for leukemia stem cell survival, notes Pacylex Pharmaceuticals. 

Development & Status:

  • Orphan Drug Status: Granted for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
  • Clinical Trials: A Phase 1 trial demonstrated good safety and early signs of activity in patients with advanced solid tumors and lymphomas, leading to further development.
  • New Drug Class: It represents a novel approach to cancer treatment, distinct from many existing therapies. 

Potential Applications:

  • Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
  • B-cell Lymphomas (like Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma)
  • Colorectal Carcinoma
  • Other cancers, including breast, lung, bladder, and pancreatic cancers, show sensitivity in preclinical models. 

Zelenirstat, also known as PCLX-001, is an investigational new drug that is being evaluated for the treatment of cancer and as an antiviral agent. It is a small molecule inhibitor targets both N-myristoyltransferase 1 (NMT1) and N-myristoyltransferase 2 (NMT2) proteins, which are responsible for myristoylation. Its dual mechanism of action disrupts both cell signaling and energy production in cancer cells.

Zelenirstat is a strong pan-N myristoyl transferase inhibitor, which prevents addition of myristic acid into penultimate glycine of protein with myristoylation signal, and initially has been introduced as anti-tumor drug.[1][2][3] It has completed phase I clinical trial and is going through escalation phase.[4] Its prototype DDD85646 as well as other NMT inhibitors such as IMP-1088 have strong antiviral activities against viruses that required myristoylated proteins to complete their life cycle, including hemorrhagic viruses, such as lassa and argentinian virus, and pox viruses, such as vaccinia and monkeypox.[5][6]

Zelenirstat is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of the enzyme N-myristoyl transferase (NMT), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, zelenirstat targets and binds to NMT, especially NMT type 2 (NMT2). This prevents NMT-mediated signaling and myristoylation. This inhibits proliferation of certain cancer cells in which NMT expression is lost. Zelenirstat also inhibits B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling and reduces the levels of Src-family tyrosine kinases (SFKs). NMTs mediate myristoylation, a key process by which the fatty acid myristate is added to proteins and allows proteins to interact with cell membranes and become part of the cell signaling system. NMT expression is lost in numerous cancers, such as blood cancer cells, thereby making these cells more sensitive to zelenirstat compared to normal cells. The loss of NMT expression may promote tumorigenesis.

Mechanism of action

Zelenirstat acts by inhibiting NMT I and II enzymes, which are required to complete the myristoylation of proteins. Without myristoylation, these proteins are targeted for proteasomal degradation.[7]

PCLX-001 is a first-in-kind N-Myristoyltransferase (NMT) inhibitor being developed by [Pacylex Pharmaceuticals](https://pacylex.com). Current studies have shown that PCLX-001 works differently than other known cancer drugs and has high activity and positive results in breast, lung, bladder and pancreas cancers.

The reaction crude was purified by Prep-HPLC using the following conditions: SunFire Prep C18 OBD Column, 19*150 mm 5 μm; mobile phase, Water (0.1% FA) and ACN (24.0% ACN up to 46.0% in 7 min); Total flow rate, 20 mL/min; Detector, UV 220 nm. This resulted in tert-butyl ((S)-1-(2-cyano-3-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-5-(((S)-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-yl)carbamoyl)pyridin-4-yl)pyrrolidin-3-yl)carbamate (45 mg, 53%) as a light yellow solid. MS (M+H) +=540.3.
      Step 4-7, preparation of 4-((S)-3-aminopyrrolidin-1-yl)-6-cyano-5-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-N—((S)-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-yl)nicotinamide: to a DCM solution (2.0 mL) of tert-butyl ((S)-1-(2-cyano-3-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-5-(((S)-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-yl)carbamoyl)pyridin-4-yl)pyrrolidin-3-yl)carbamate (45 mg, 1.0 Eq, 0.083 mmol) was added TFA (1.0 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated and freeze-dried under vacuum to afford the TFA salt of 4-((S)-3-aminopyrrolidin-1-yl)-6-cyano-5-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-N—((S)-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-yl)nicotinamide bis(2,2,2-trifluoroacetate) (40.2 mg, 72%) as a light yellow solid. MS (M+H) +=440.2.
