Ceperognastat (LY3372689) is a drug candidate molecule under investigation to treat Alzheimer's disease. It targets the enzyme O-GlcNAcase.[2][3] Its result is to reduce formation of tau protein tangles.

A molecule containing radioactive fluorine was used with a PET scan to show that ceperognastat binds in the human brain.[4]

Ceperognastat was discovered via a high-throughput screening campaign followed by further optimization.[5]

Eli Lilly and Company is recruiting subjects for a clinical trial.[6] Some hospitals in Australia: St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney Hornsby Ku-Ring-Gai Hospital, The Prince Charles Hospital, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Adelaide, Box Hill Hospital, and Delmont Private Hospital are involved.[7] Results of the trial were expected by June 2024.[8] Primary completion of the study occurred on 9th July 2024, with full completion expected in August 2024. In an investor call, it was disclosed that ceperognastat missed the primary endpoint of improvement on the Integrated Alzheimer's Disease Rating Scale. The detailed results of this study are expected to be disclosed at a conference in late 2024.[9]

Chemical

The molecule contains three rings: thiazole, piperidine and oxadiazole. Other functional groups included are an ether, acetamide, and a fluoride.[10]

Synthesis of N-[4-fluoro-5-[[(2S,5S)-2-methyl-4-[(5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)methoxy]-1-piperidyl]methyl]thiazol-2-yl]acetamide

 N-(4-Fluoro-5-formyl-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (28.3 g, 150 mmol) is added to 5-methyl-3-[[(2S,4S)-2-methyl-4-piperidyl]oxymethyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole hydrochloride (48.7 g, 185 mmol, 94% purity) in ethyl acetate (707 mL) at room temperature. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (34.1 mL, 195 mmol) is added dropwise over 1 minute, then sodium triacetoxyborohydride (98.5 g, 451 mmol) is added in one portion. The reaction mixture is stirred in a 31° C. heating block overnight with an internal temperature of 30° C., then is cooled in an ice-water bath to an internal temperature of 5° C. To the mixture is added 2M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (226 mL) over 15 minutes, maintaining an internal temperature below 10° C. To the mixture is added water (250 mL) and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 5 minutes. The layers are separated and the organic layer is extracted with a mixture of 2M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (28 mL) in water (50 mL). The first aqueous layer is stirred in an ice-water bath and 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (25.7 mL) is added dropwise over 10 minutes, maintaining an internal temperature below 10° C. The mixture is diluted with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (100 mL), then is stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes and then is extracted with ethyl acetate (3×400 mL). The combined organics are dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a residue. The second aqueous layer from the extraction with aqueous hydrochloric acid is diluted with 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (200 mL) and the mixture is passed through a short pad of diatomaceous earth. The filtrate is transferred to a separating funnel and the layers are separated. The aqueous layer is stirred in an ice-water bath and 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (3.15 mL) is added dropwise over 5 minutes, maintaining an internal temperature below 10° C. The mixture is diluted with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (10 mL), then is stirred at room temperature for 5 minutes and then is extracted with ethyl acetate (3×40 mL) and 10% isopropanol in ethyl acetate (100 mL). The combined organics are dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a residue, which is combined with the residue from the first part of the workup. The combined residue is passed through a pad of silica gel (350 g) eluting with ethyl acetate (3.5 L) and the filtrate is concentrated to give a residue (45.8 g).
      The residue (47.5 g of combined lots, 123.9 mmol) is purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 50-100% ethyl acetate in heptane. The product-containing fractions are concentrated to residue, which is suspended in a 1:1 mixture of methyl-tert-butyl ether and heptane (448 mL). The mixture is stirred in a 46° C. heating block for 30 minutes at an internal temperature of 45° C., then is cooled to room temperature over 2 hours with stirring. The mixture is filtered, washing the solid with a 1:1 mixture of methyl-tert-butyl ether and heptane (30 mL). The filtered solid is dried under vacuum at 40° C. overnight to give the title compound (28.5 g). MS m/z 384.0 (M+H); [α] D 20=+33.4° (C=0.26, methanol).

Cirtociclib (also known as BLU-222) is an investigational drug that acts as a highly selective inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2). It is being developed by Blueprint Therapeutics for the treatment of advanced solid tumours, particularly those with genetic drivers like CCNE1 amplification, which are common in certain ovarian and breast cancers

Certociclib is a small molecule drug. Certociclib is under investigation in clinical trial NCT05252416 ((VELA) Study of BLU-222 in Advanced Solid Tumors). Certociclib has a monoisotopic molecular weight of 365.14 Da.

Certociclib is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, certociclib selectively targets, binds to and inhibits the activity of CDK2. This may lead to cell cycle arrest, the induction of apoptosis, and the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. CDK2, a serine/threonine kinase that plays an important role in the regulation of cell cycle progression and cellular proliferation, is overexpressed in certain tumor cells.

How It Works

  • Targeting CDK2: It binds to CDK2, a protein that regulates the cell cycle.
  • Cell Cycle Arrest: By inhibiting CDK2, the drug causes G1 arrest, preventing cancer cells from replicating.
  • Selectivity: It is designed to be "best-in-class" for its high selectivity for CDK2 over other kinases like CDK1, CDK4, or CDK6. 

Therapeutic Potential

  • Ovarian Cancer: Specifically targets high-grade serous ovarian cancer where CCNE1 is amplified.
  • Breast Cancer: Shows promise in treating hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-) breast cancer, especially when the cancer has become resistant to existing CDK4/6 inhibitors.
  • Combination Therapy: Researchers are testing it alongside other drugs, such as palbociclib, ribociclib, or chemotherapy agents like carboplatin, to enhance efficacy. 

Current Status

  • Clinical Trials: It is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial known as the VELA study (NCT05252416) for patients with advanced solid tumours.
  • Research Status: It is not yet approved for general medical use and is primarily available for research and clinical trial participants.

Claturafenib (development code PF-07799933) is an investigational cancer drug currently being developed by Pfizer. It is a selective, orally active pan-mutant BRAF inhibitor designed to treat advanced solid tumours with specific genetic alterations

Mechanism of Action

Claturafenib belongs to a class of drugs that target the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway, which is often hijacked by cancer cells to promote uncontrolled growth. 

  • Pan-Mutant Inhibition: Unlike first-generation BRAF inhibitors, claturafenib inhibits multiple classes of BRAF mutations, including Class 1 (V600), Class 2, and Class 3 alterations.
  • Brain-Penetrant: It is designed to cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing it to potentially treat brain metastases or primary brain tumours.
  • Dimer Disruption: It works by disrupting the formation of BRAF-containing dimers, which are responsible for signaling in many resistant or non-V600 mutant cancers.
  • Selectivity: It is highly selective for mutant BRAF, significantly sparing normal (wild-type) cells to reduce off-target side effects. 

🏥 Clinical Status

As of April 2026, claturafenib is in Phase 1 clinical trials

  • Target Indications: Advanced solid malignancies, including melanoma, colorectal cancer (CRC), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
  • Combination Therapy: It is being studied both as a single agent (monotherapy) and in combination with other drugs like binimetinib (a MEK inhibitor) or cetuximab (an EGFR inhibitor).
  • Ongoing Study: Clinical trial NCT05355701 is currently evaluating its safety, dosage, and efficacy in patients whose disease has progressed on other treatments.

 Claturafenib is an orally bioavailable class 1 and 2 inhibitor of the serine/threonine-protein kinase B-raf (BRAF) protein, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, claturafenib selectively binds to and inhibits the activity of class 1 and 2 BRAF alterations. This inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells which express these BRAF alterations. BRAF, a member of the raf family of serine/threonine protein kinases, plays a role in the regulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathways, which may be constitutively activated due to BRAF gene mutations. Mutated forms and fusions of BRAF are associated with a number of neoplastic diseases.

Colfosceril miristate (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or DMPC) is a synthetic phospholipid commonly used in research to study lipid bilayers, liposomes, and drug delivery systems. It serves as a model membrane system due to its phase transition properties and has shown potential in enhancing nanoparticle uptake and acting as a drug stabilizer. 

Key Aspects of Colfosceril Miristate (DMPC):

  • Scientific Application: Primarily used in laboratory research for studying lipid monolayers and bilayers.
  • Drug Delivery: Employed in the creation of liposomes for drug delivery applications.
  • Biological Activity: Exhibits antiproliferative effects on various tumor cell lines and can increase the cellular uptake of nanoparticles.
  • Characteristics: It is a synthetic phospholipid, frequently studied for its phase transition temperature (approx. ).
  • Storage: Should be stored at  or  to maintain stability. 

Important Distinction:
It is crucial not to confuse Colfosceril miristate (DMPC) with Colfosceril palmitate (DPPC). Colfosceril palmitate is a different synthetic surfactant historically used in medicine to treat neonatal respiratory distress syndrome

1,2-DIMYRISTOYL-SN-GLYCERO-3-PHOSPHOCHOLINE (dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine, DMPC) is a synthetic phospholipid used in liposomes and lipid bilayers for the study of biological membranes. DMPC is a frequently studied artificial lipid because it undergoes a phase transition at a convenient temperature. Upon cooling below 23.6°C it undergoes a transition from the liquid crystalline phase to the solid rippled phase, characterized by periodic corrugations of the bilayer.

Dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine is a phosphatidylcholine, a kind of phospholipid. Along with other lipids, it can be used to prepare liposomes.[1]
