Discovery of 5-trifluoromethyl-2-aminopyrimidine derivatives as potent dual inhibitors of FLT3 and CHK1

Here, we discover an FLT3/CHK1 dual inhibitor (30) that exhibits excellent kinase potency and antiproliferative activity against MV4-11 cells. Simultaneously, 30 possesses high selectivity over c-Kit enzyme and low hERG inhibitory ability. Compound 30, meanwhile, overcomes varied resistance in BaF3 cell lines carrying FLT3-TKD and FLT3-ITD mutations. Moreover, 30 demonstrates favorable oral PK properties and kinase selectivity. These conclusions support that compound 30 may be a promising potential FLT3/CHK1 dual agent for further development.
