Abstract

A novel, potent, and orally bioavailable inhibitor of the bromodomain of CBP, compound 35 (GNE-207), has been identified through SAR investigations focused on optimizing al bicyclic heteroarene to replace the aniline present in the published GNE-272 series. Compound 35 has excellent CBP potency (CBP IC50 = 1 nM, MYC EC50 = 18 nM), a selectively index of >2500-fold against BRD4(1), and exhibits a good pharmacokinetic profile.
