In vivo studies in CDX models [2]
The in vivo antitumor efficacy and tolerability of Elimusertib (BAY1895344) as monotherapy/combination therapy were evaluated in CDX subcutaneous or orthotopic xenograft models in mice. Monotherapy experiments were performed in GRANTA-519 (in female SCID beige mice), REC-1 (in female C.B-17 SCID mice), PC-3 (in male NMRI nude mice), LOVO, and A2780 (both in female NMRI nude mice) models treated with BAY 1895344 at 50 mg/kg [all models; twice daily, 3 days on/4 days off (3on/4off), per os/orally] or at 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg (GRANTA-519; twice daily, 3on/4off, per os/orally), ibrutinib (REC-1; 20 mg/kg, once daily, per os/orally), AZD6738 (GRANTA-519, REC-1; 50 mg/kg, once daily, per os/orally), M6620 (GRANTA-519 and REC-1; 100 mg/kg, once daily, per os/orally), or 5-FU (LOVO; 50 mg/kg, once weekly, intraperitoneally). The combination of BAY 1895344 at 10 or 20 mg/kg [once daily, 2 days on/5 days off (2on/5off), per os/orally.] or 50 mg/kg (twice daily, 3on/4off, per os/orally) and carboplatin (50 mg/kg, once weekly, intraperitoneally) was investigated in IGROV-1 tumor–bearing female nude (nu/nu) mice. The combination of 20 or 50 mg/kg BAY 1895344 (twice daily, 2on/5off, per os/orally) and EBRT (5 Gy, 7.7 minutes, once daily on days 12 and 27) was investigated in LOVO tumor–bearing female NMRI nude mice. Combination therapy experiments with 20 or 50 mg/kg BAY 1895344 (twice daily, 3on/4off, per os/orally) and 20 or 50 mg/kg olaparib (once daily, intraperitoneally) were performed in MDA-MB-436 and 22Rv1 models in female NOD/SCID and male SCID mice, respectively. Combination experiments with 20 mg/kg BAY 1895344 (twice daily, 3on/4off, per os/orally) and 100 mg/kg darolutamide (once daily, per os/orally) were performed in the hormone-dependent LAPC-4 prostate cancer model in male C.B-17 SCID mice. Castrated mice served here as a control. For a triple combination treatment, mice received EBRT (5 Gy, every 7 days twice) in addition to treatment with BAY 1895344 and darolutamide.
To elucidate the in vivo mode of action of Elimusertib (BAY1895344), ATR and H2AX phosphorylation was determined in lysed GRANTA-519 xenograft tumor samples. For the quantification of circulating ATRis, plasma samples were taken from mice and measured by LC-MS/MS.

Elimusertib is an orally available ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR)-specific kinase inhibitor, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, elimusertib selectively binds to and inhibits the activity of ATR, which prevents ATR-mediated signaling. This inhibits DNA damage checkpoint activation, disrupts DNA damage repair and induces apoptosis in ATR-overexpressing tumor cells. ATR, a serine/threonine protein kinase upregulated in a variety of cancer cell types, plays a key role in DNA repair, cell cycle progression and cell survival.

The integrity of the genome of eukaryotic cells is secured by complex signaling pathways, known as DNA damage response (DDR). Recognition of DNA damage activates DDR pathways resulting in cell cycle arrest, suppression of general translation, induction of DNA repair, cell survival or even cell death. Proteins that directly recognize aberrant DNA structures recruit and activate kinases of the DDR pathway, such as ATR (ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related). ATR responds to a broad spectrum of DNA damage, including double-strand breaks (DSB) and lesions derived from interference with DNA replication as well as increased replication stress (e.g. in oncogene-driven tumor cells). Therefore, inhibition of ATR kinase activity could be the basis for a novel anti-cancer therapy in tumors with increased DNA damage, deficiency in DNA damage repair or replication stress. Herein we report the identification of the potent, highly selective and orally available ATR inhibitor BAY 1895344 by a collaborative effort involving medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, DMPK and computational chemistry. The chemical structures of lead compound BAY-937 and clinical candidate BAY 1895344 as well as the main SAR trends within this novel class of naphthyridine derivatives will be disclosed for the first time. The novel lead compound BAY-937 revealed promising inhibition of ATR (IC50 = 78 nM) and high kinase selectivity in vitro. In cellular mechanistic assays BAY-937 inhibited hydroxyurea-induced H2AX phosphorylation (IC50 = 380 nM) demonstrating the anticipated mode of action. Moreover, BAY-937 was shown to inhibit proliferation of a variety of tumor cell lines with low- to sub-micromolar IC50 values. In initial xenograft studies, BAY-937 revealed moderate activity in monotherapy and in combination with cis-platin. However, BAY-937 also revealed low aqueous solubility, low bioavailability (rat) and activity in the hERG patch clamp assay. Extensive lead optimization efforts led to the identification of the novel, orally available ATR inhibitor BAY 1895344. In vitro, BAY 1895344 was shown to be a very potent and highly selective ATR inhibitor (IC50 = 7 nM), which potently inhibits proliferation of a broad spectrum of human tumor cell lines (median IC50 = 78 nM). In cellular mechanistic assays BAY 1895344 potently inhibited hydroxyurea-induced H2AX phosphorylation (IC50 = 36 nM). Moreover, BAY 1895344 revealed significantly improved aqueous solubility, bioavailability across species and no activity in the hERG patch-clamp assay. BAY 1895344 also demonstrated very promising efficacy in monotherapy in DNA damage deficient tumor models as well as combination treatment with DNA damage inducing therapies. The start of clinical investigation of BAY 1895344 is planned for early 2017. [1]

The DNA damage response (DDR) secures the integrity of the genome of eukaryotic cells. DDR deficiencies can promote tumorigenesis but concurrently may increase dependence on alternative repair pathways. The ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR) kinase plays a central role in the DDR by activating essential signaling pathways of DNA damage repair. Here, we studied the effect of the novel selective ATR kinase inhibitor BAY 1895344 on tumor cell growth and viability. Potent antiproliferative activity was demonstrated in a broad spectrum of human tumor cell lines. BAY 1895344 exhibited strong monotherapy efficacy in cancer xenograft models that carry DNA damage repair deficiencies. The combination of BAY 1895344 with DNA damage-inducing chemotherapy or external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) showed synergistic antitumor activity. Combination treatment with BAY 1895344 and DDR inhibitors achieved strong synergistic antiproliferative activity in vitro, and combined inhibition of ATR and PARP signaling using olaparib demonstrated synergistic antitumor activity in vivo Furthermore, the combination of BAY 1895344 with the novel, nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonist darolutamide resulted in significantly improved antitumor efficacy compared with respective single-agent treatments in hormone-dependent prostate cancer, and addition of EBRT resulted in even further enhanced antitumor efficacy. Thus, the ATR inhibitor BAY 1895344 may provide new therapeutic options for the treatment of cancers with certain DDR deficiencies in monotherapy and in combination with DNA damage-inducing or DNA repair-compromising cancer therapies by improving their efficacy.[2]
