Abstract

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks) mediate intracellular signal transduction. Aberrant PI3K signaling is associated with oncogenesis and disease progression in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Idelalisib (1), a first-in-class PI3Kδ inhibitor for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, was developed, but its sales were limited by black box warnings due to unexpected adverse effects. Therefore, to overcome these adverse events, various quinazolinone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in vitro based on their inhibitory activity against the PI3K enzyme and the viability of cell lines such as MOLT and SUDHL. Among them, 6f (IC<sub>50</sub> = 0.39 nM) and 6m (IC<sub>50</sub> = 0.09 nM) showed excellent enzyme activity, and 6m displayed an approximately four-fold higher selectivity for PI3Kγ/δ compared with Idelalisib (1). Furthermore, in vivo PK experiments with 6f and 6m revealed that 6f (AUC<sub>last</sub> = 81.04 h*ng/mL, C<sub>max</sub> = 18.34 ng/mL, T<sub>max</sub> = 0.5 h, t<sub>1/2</sub> = 10.2 h in 1 mpk dose) had improved PK compared with 1. Finally, further experiments will be conducted with 6f selected as a candidate, and the potential for it to be developed as a treatment with good efficacy for hematologic malignancies will be determined.
