The development and optimization
of a series of quinolinylpurines
as potent and selective PI3Kδ kinase inhibitors with excellent
physicochemical properties are described. This medicinal chemistry
effort led to the identification of 1 (AMG319), a compound
with an IC50 of 16 nM in a human whole blood assay (HWB),
excellent selectivity over a large panel of protein kinases, and a
high level of in vivo efficacy as measured by two rodent disease models
of inflammation.
