Abstract : Plinabulin (1, NPI-2358), a potent microtubule-targeting agent derived from the natural diketopiperazine 'phenylahistin' with a colchicine-like tubulin depolymerization activity, is an anticancer agent undergoing Phase II clinical trials in four countries including the United States. In order to understand the precise binding mode of plinabulin with tubulin, a new bioactive biotin-tagged photoaffinity probe 4 (KPU-244-B3) was designed and synthesized. Probe 4 showed significant binding affinity to tubulin in a binding assay, and selectively bound to tubulin in an HT-1080 cell lysate without photo-irradiation. In a tubulin photoaffinity labeling study, probe 4 labeled both alpha- and beta-tubulin subunits and these interactions were competitively inhibited by plinabulin during photo-irradiation. These results suggest that plinabulin binds in the boundary region between alpha- and beta-tubulin near the colchicine binding site, and not inside the colchicine binding cavity.

Abstract : A new bioactive photoaffinity probe KPU-252-B1 (4) possessing a biotin tag on the oxazole ring of a potent plinabulin derivative KPU-244 (2) was synthesized via the Cu(I)-catalyzed Huisgen's cycloaddition reaction to understand the precise binding mode of the diketopiperazine-based anti-microtubule agent plinabulin on tubulin. Probe 4 showed significant binding affinity toward tubulin and cytotoxicity against an HT-29 cells. A photoaffinity labeling study suggested that probe 4 specifically recognizes tubulin at a binding site that binds plinabulin or colchicine, most likely near or at the colchicine binding site, which is located at the interfacial region formed by α-and β-tubulin association. The results also demonstrated that probe 4 may serve as a useful plinabulin chemical probe to investigate the molecular mechanism by which anti-microtubule diketopiperazine derivatives operate.

Title : Highlights of marine invertebrate-derived biosynthetic products: their biomedical potential and possible production by microbial associants.

Abstract : Coral reefs are among the most productive marine ecosystems and are the source of a large group of structurally unique biosynthetic products. Annual reviews of marine natural products continue to illustrate that the most prolific source of bioactive compounds consist of coral reef invertebrates-sponges, ascidians, mollusks, and bryozoans. This account examines recent milestone developments pertaining to compounds from invertebrates designated as therapeutic leads for biomedical discovery. The focus is on the secondary metabolites, their inspirational structural scaffolds and the possible role of micro-organism associants in their biosynthesis. Also important are the increasing concerns regarding the collection of reef invertebrates for the discovery process. The case examples considered here will be useful to insure that future research to unearth bioactive invertebrate-derived compounds will be carried out in a sustainable and environmentally conscious fashion. Our account begins with some observations pertaining to the natural history of these organisms. Many still believe that a serious obstacle to the ultimate development of a marine natural product isolated from coral reef invertebrates is the problem of compound supply. Recent achievements through total synthesis can now be drawn on to forcefully cast this myth aside. The tools of semisynthesis of complex natural products or insights from SAR efforts to simplify an active pharmacophore are at hand and demand discussion. Equally exciting is the prospect that invertebrate-associated micro-organisms may represent the next frontier to accelerate the development of high priority therapeutic candidates. Currently in the United States there are two FDA approved marine-derived therapeutic drugs and two others that are often cited as being marine-inspired. This record will be examined first followed by an analysis of a dozen of our favorite examples of coral reef invertebrate natural products having therapeutic potential. The record of using complex scaffolds of marine invertebrate products as the starting point for development will be reviewed by considering eight case examples. The potential promise of developing invertebrate-derived micro-organisms as the starting point for further exploration of therapeutically relevant structures is considered. Also significant is the circumstance that there are some 14 sponge-derived compounds that are available to facilitate fundamental biological investigations.

Abstract : Plinabulin (11, NPI-2358) is a potent microtubule-targeting agent derived from the natural diketopiperazine "phenylahistin" (1) with a colchicine-like tubulin depolymerization activity. Compound 11 was recently developed as VDA and is now under phase II clinical trials as an anticancer drug. To develop more potent antimicrotubule and cytotoxic derivatives based on the didehydro-DKP skeleton, we performed further modification on the tert-butyl or phenyl groups of 11, and evaluated their cytotoxic and tubulin-binding activities. In the SAR study, we developed more potent derivatives 33 with 2,5-difluorophenyl and 50 with a benzophenone in place of the phenyl group. The anti-HuVEC activity of 33 and 50 exhibited a lowest effective concentration of 2 and 1 nM for microtubule depolymerization, respectively. The values of 33 and 50 were 5 and 10 times more potent than that of CA-4, respectively. These derivatives could be a valuable second-generation derivative with both vascular disrupting and cytotoxic activities.

Abstract : KPU-105 (4), a potent anti-microtubule agent that contains a benzophenone was derived from the diketopiperazine-type vascular disrupting agent (VDA) plinabulin 3, which displays colchicine-like tubulin depolymerization activity. To develop derivatives with more potent anti-microtubule and cytotoxic activities, we further modified the benzophenone moiety of 4. Accordingly, we obtained a 4-fluorobenzophenone derivative 16j that inhibited tumor cell growth in vitro with a subnanomolar IC(50) value against HT-29 cells (IC(50)=0.5 nM). Next, the effect of 16j on mitotic spindles was evaluated in HeLa cells. Treatment with 3nM of 16j partially disrupted the interphase microtubule network. By contrast, treatment with the same concentration of CA-4 barely affected the microtubule network, indicating that 16j exhibited more potent anti-mitotic effects than did CA-4.

Abstract : Non-protected 2,5-diketopiperazine derivatives have poor solubility thus with negative impact on their bioavailability. In the present study, twenty-one novel soluble mono-protected, and three non-protected 2,5-diketopiperazine derivatives were designed and synthesized. Their anticancer activity to ten cell lines were evaluated by using CCK8 assay, and the results showed that about half of the mono-protected derivatives had broad-spectrum anticancer activity. Among allyl-protected derivatives, compound 4m had strong activity to all the cell lines (IC50 = 0.5-4.5 μM), especially to the cancer cell lines U937 (IC50 = 0.5 μM) and K562 (IC50 = 0.9 μM). Compound 4m could become a lead compound for further development for anticancer agents.

Abstract : A new benzophenone-diketopiperazine-type potent antimicrotubule agent was developed by modifying the structure of the clinical candidate plinabulin (1). Although the right-hand imidazole ring with a branched alkyl chain at the 5-position in 1 was critical for the potency of the antimicrotubule activity, we successfully substituted this moiety with a simpler 2-pyridyl structure by converting the left-hand ring from a phenyl to a benzophenone structure without decreasing the potency. The resultant compound 6b (KPU-300) exhibited a potent cytotoxicity, with an IC50 value of 7.0 nM against HT-29 cells, by strongly binding to tubulin (K d = 1.3 μM) and inducing microtubule depolymerization.

Abstract : Plinabulin, a drug targeting microtubule of cancer cells, has been currently tried in its phase III clinical study. However, low efficacy caused by poor pharmacokinetic (PK) properties has been considered to be the main obstacle to approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Herein, we introduced a deuterium atom as an isostere in its structure to become a new compound named (MBRI-001, No. 9 in a series of deuterium-substituted compounds). The structure of MBRI-001 was characterized by HRMS, NMR, IR and a single crystal analysis. MBRI-001 exhibited better pharmacokinetic characteristics than that of plinabulin. Additionally, its antitumor activity is in a low nanomolar level for a variety of cancer cell lines and high activity against human NCI-H460 xenograted in mice intravenous administration. Importantly, continuous administration of MBRI-001 exhibited lower toxicity compared to docetaxel. We thus suggest that MBRI-001 could be developed as a promising anti-cancer agent in near future.

Abstract : Based on the co-crystal structures of tubulin with plinabulin and Compound 1 (a derivative of plinabulin), a total of 18 novel plinabulin derivatives were designed and synthesized. Their biological activities were evaluated against human pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cell lines. Two novel Compounds 13d and 13e exhibited potent activities with IC50 at 1.56 and 1.72 nM, respectively. The tubulin polymerization assay indicated that these derivatives could inhibit microtubule polymerization. Furthermore, the interaction between tubulin and these compounds were elucidated by molecular docking. The binding modes of Compounds 13d and 13e were similar to the co-crystal structure of Compound 1. H-π interaction was observed between the aromatic hydrogen of thiophene moiety with Phe20, which could enhance their binding affinities.

Abstract : MBRI-001 was demonstrated preliminary better pharmacokinetics and antitumor effects than that of plinabulin in vivo. In this approach, we further carried out systematic pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of MBRI-001 in vitro and in vivo. MBRI-001 was tested stable in rat plasma and more stable in liver microsomes than plinabulin in vitro. In vivo, MBRI-001 could be distributed rapidly and widely in various tissues, especially the concentration of MBRI-001 in lung was remarkably higher than other tissues. Excretion study indicated that MBRI-001 might been decomposed and excreted as metabolites. Additionally, the combination treatment of MBRI-001 and gefitinib revealed better antitumor inhibition rate than monotherapy in vivo. Therefore, we suggest that MBRI-001 could be developed as a promising anti-cancer agent in near future.

Authors : Bernhard Ellinger, Denisa Bojkova, Andrea Zaliani, Jindrich Cinatl, Carsten Claussen, Sandra Westhaus, Jeanette Reinshagen, Maria Kuzikov, Markus Wolf, Gerd Geisslinger, Philip Gribbon, Sandra Ciesek
Abstract : To identify possible candidates for progression towards clinical studies against SARS-CoV-2, we screened a well-defined collection of 5632 compounds including 3488 compounds which have undergone clinical investigations (marketed drugs, phases 1 -3, and withdrawn) across 600 indications. Compounds were screened for their inhibition of viral induced cytotoxicity using the human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line Caco-2 and a SARS-CoV-2 isolate. The primary screen of 5632 compounds gave 271 hits. A total of 64 compounds with IC50 <20 µM were identified, including 19 compounds with IC50 < 1 µM. Of this confirmed hit population, 90% have not yet been previously reported as active against SARS-CoV-2 in-vitro cell assays. Some 37 of the actives are launched drugs, 19 are in phases 1-3 and 10 pre-clinical. Several inhibitors were associated with modulation of host pathways including kinase signaling P53 activation, ubiquitin pathways and PDE activity modulation, with long chain acyl transferases were effective viral inhibitors.

Abstract : MBRI-001, a deuterium-substituted plinabulin derivative, has been reported to have better pharmacokinetic and similar antitumor effects in comparison with plinabulin. In this approach, we further carried out its polymorphs, co-crystal structure of MBRI-001-tubulin and tubulin inhibition study. Among the different polymorphs, Form F (MBRI-001/H2O) was prepared and evaluated, which had better physical stability and suitable process for scale-up production. Co-crystal structure of MBRI-001-tubulin (PDB:5XI5) was prepared and analyzed. The result of tubulin polymerization assay demonstrated that MBRI-001 could inhibit tubulin polymerization which was similar as plinabulin. Subsequently, the anti-proliferative activities of plinabulin and MBRI-001 were evaluated against two different human lung cancer cell lines. In vivo study, MBRI-001 revealed similar antitumor inhibition in comparison with plinabulin in A549 xenograft tumor model. Therefore, we suggested that MBRI-001 could be developed as a promising anti-cancer agent in near future.

Abstract : MBRI-001, a deuterium-substituted plinabulin derivative, has been reported to have better pharmacokinetic and similar antitumor effects in comparison with plinabulin. In this approach, we further carried out its polymorphs, co-crystal structure of MBRI-001-tubulin and tubulin inhibition study. Among the different polymorphs, Form F (MBRI-001/H2O) was prepared and evaluated, which had better physical stability and suitable process for scale-up production. Co-crystal structure of MBRI-001-tubulin (PDB:5XI5) was prepared and analyzed. The result of tubulin polymerization assay demonstrated that MBRI-001 could inhibit tubulin polymerization which was similar as plinabulin. Subsequently, the anti-proliferative activities of plinabulin and MBRI-001 were evaluated against two different human lung cancer cell lines. In vivo study, MBRI-001 revealed similar antitumor inhibition in comparison with plinabulin in A549 xenograft tumor model. Therefore, we suggested that MBRI-001 could be developed as a promising anti-cancer agent in near future.

Abstract : Compound repurposing is an important strategy being pursued in the identification of effective treatment against the SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease. In this regard, SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M-Pro), also termed 3CL-Pro, is an attractive drug target as it plays a central role in viral replication by processing the viral polyprotein into 11 non-structural proteins. We report the results of a screening campaign involving ca 8.7 K compounds containing marketed drugs, clinical and preclinical candidates, and chemicals regarded as safe in humans. We confirmed previously reported inhibitors of 3CL-Pro, but we have also identified 68 compounds with IC50 lower than 1 uM and 127 compounds with IC50 lower than 5 uM. Profiling showed 67% of confirmed hits were selective (> 5 fold) against other Cys- and Ser- proteases (Chymotrypsin and Cathepsin-L) and MERS 3CL-Pro. Selected compounds were also analysed in their binding characteristics.

Title : Cytopathic SARS-Cov2 screening on VERO-E6 cells in a large repurposing effort

Beccari, Johan Neyts, Philip Gribbon and Pieter Leyssen
Abstract : Worldwide, there are intensive efforts to identify repurposed drugs as potential therapies against SARS-CoV-2 infection and the associated COVID-19 disease. To date, the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone and (to a lesser extent) the RNA-polymerase inhibitor remdesivir have been shown to be effective in reducing mortality and patient time to recovery, respectively, in patients. Here, we report the results of a phenotypic screening campaign within an EU-funded project (H2020-EXSCALATE4COV) aimed at extending the repertoire of anti-COVID therapeutics through repurposing of available compounds and highlighting compounds with new mechanisms of action against viral infection. We screened 8702 molecules from different repurposing libraries, to reveal 110 compounds with an anti-cytopathic IC50 < 20 µM. From this group, 18 with a safety index greater than 2 are also marketed drugs, making them suitable for further study as potential therapies against COVID-19. Our result supports the idea that a systematic approach to repurposing is a valid strategy to accelerate the necessary drug discovery process.

Abstract : The co-crystal structure of Compound 6b with tubulin was prepared and solved for indicating the binding mode and for further optimization. Based on the co-crystal structures of tubulin with plinabulin and Compound 6b, a total of 27 novel A/B/C-rings plinabulin derivatives were designed and synthesized. Their biological activities were evaluated against human lung cancer NCI-H460 cell line. The optimum phenoxy-diketopiperazine-type Compound 6o exhibited high potent cytotoxicity (IC<sub>50</sub> = 4.0 nM) through SAR study of three series of derivatives, which was more potent than plinabulin (IC<sub>50</sub> = 26.2 nM) and similar to Compound 6b (IC<sub>50</sub> = 3.8 nM) against human lung cancer NCI-H460 cell line. Subsequently, the Compound 6o was evaluated against other four human cancer cell lines. Both tubulin polymerization assay and immunofluorescence assay showed that Compound 6o could inhibit microtubule polymerization efficiently. Furthermore, theoretical calculation of the physical properties and molecular docking were elucidated for these plinabulin derivatives. The binding mode of Compound 6o was similar to Compound 6b based on the result of molecular docking. The theoretical calculated LogPo/w and PCaco of Compound 6o were better than Compound 6b, which could enhance its cytostatic activity. Therefore, Compound 6o might be developed as a novel potent anti-microtubule agent.

Abstract : Plinabulin, a synthetic analog of the marine natural product "diketopiperazine phenylahistin," displayed depolymerization effects on microtubules and targeted the colchicine site, which has been moved into phase III clinical trials for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the prevention of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN). To develop more potent anti-microtubule and cytotoxic derivatives, the co-crystal complexes of plinabulin derivatives were summarized and analyzed. We performed further modifications of the tert-butyl moiety or C-ring of imidazole-type derivatives to build a library of molecules through the introduction of different groups for novel skeletons. Our structure-activity relationship study indicated that compounds 17o (IC<sub>50</sub> = 14.0 nM, NCI-H460) and 17p (IC<sub>50</sub> = 2.9 nM, NCI-H460) with furan groups exhibited potent cytotoxic activities at the nanomolar level against various human cancer cell lines. In particular, the 5-methyl or methoxymethyl substituent of furan group could replace the alkyl group of imidazole at the 5-position to maintain cytotoxic activity, contradicting previous reports that the tert-butyl moiety at the 5-position of imidazole was essential for the activity of such compounds. Immunofluorescence assay indicated that compounds 17o and 17p could efficiently inhibit microtubule polymerization. Overall, the novel furan-diketopiperazine-type derivatives could be considered as a potential scaffold for the development of anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract : A series of novel N-1-monoallylated 2,5-diketopiperazine derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as cytotoxic agents against eight cancer cell lines by using CCK8 assay. These derivatives were substituted with methoxyphenyl groups at C-6 position, and various long alkyl side chains at C-3-position of the 2,5-diketopiperazine ring. The cytotoxic results showed that 4-methoxyphenyl group was better than 2-methoxyphenyl group as optimal substitutive group, while 3-methoxyphenyl group was not a suitable one. When the number (n value) of the methylene groups for the long alkyl side chain was 3 (compounds 1c and 3c), the derivatives had the strongest cytotoxicities. Compound 3c substituted with 4-methoxyphenyl group and pentylidene side chain exhibited strong activity (IC50 = 0.36-1.9 μM) against all cancer cell lines, and could obviously induce apoptosis of cancer cell line U937 at 1.0 μM after 48 h treatment.
