The discovery and optimization of a series of 4-aminocinnoline-3-carboxamide inhibitors of Bruton's tyrosine kinase are reported. A fragment-based screening approach incorporating X-ray co-crystallography was used to identify a cinnoline fragment and characterize its binding mode in the ATP binding site of Btk. Optimization of the fragment hit resulted in the identification of a lead compound which reduced paw swelling in a dose- and exposure-dependent fashion in a rat model of collagen-induced arthritis.

BTK inhibitors have been proved as an effective target for B-cell malignancies. Ibrutinib is the most advanced irreversible BTK inhibitor for treating mantle cell lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukaemia but with existing drug resistance and adverse effects. To design novel effective and safety reversible BTK inhibitors, 115 newly cinnoline analogues were selected to perform molecular docking and 3D-QSAR study because of the main scaffold similarity to Ibrutinib. Both established CoMFA and CoMSIA models obtained high predictive and satisfactory value. CoMFA/CoMSIA contour maps demonstrated that bulky substitutions are preferred at R1 and R3 positions, and introducing hydrophilic and negative electrostatic substitutions at R1 positions is important for improving BTK inhibitory activities. These results will be useful to provide clues for rationally designing novel and high potency BTK inhibitors.

A structure-hopping strategy was applied to discover a series of novel 4-aminoquinoline-3-carboxamide derivatives as potent, reversible BTK inhibitors. Compared to the previously described cinnoline scaffold compounds, the 4-aminoquinoline analogues showed significantly improved drug-like properties, especially in their aqueous solubility. The most potent compound, 25, displayed a stronger inhibitory effect on both BTKWT (IC50 = 5.3 nM) and BTKC481S (IC50 = 39 nM). In a rodent collagen-induced arthritis model, compound 25 efficiently reduced paw swelling without a loss in body weight. On the basis of potency, drug-like properties, stability, and noncovalent mode of inhibition, our representative inhibitors could have a promising profile to be treatments for a wide range of autoimmune diseases.
