DCBCI0901 is an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), raptor-mTOR (mTOR complex 1 or mTORC1) and rictor-mTOR (mTOR complex 2 or mTORC2) with potential antineoplastic activity.
PKI-179 is a potent and orally active dual PI3KmTORinhibitor, with IC50s of 8 nM, 24 nM, 74 nM, 77 nM, and 0.42 nM for PI3K-α, PI3K-β, PI3K-γ, PI3K-δ and mTOR, respectively. PKI-179 also exhibits activity over E545K and H1047R, with IC50s of 14 nM and 11 nM, respectively. PKI-179 shows anti-tumor activity in vivo[1][2]. PKI-179 inhibits the cell proliferation, with IC50s of 22 nM and 29 nM for MDA361 and PC3 cells, respectively[1].PKI-179 shows inhibitory activity against a panel of 361 other kinases, hERG and cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms at concentrations up to >30 μM, but does have activity for CYP2C8 (IC50=3 μM)[1]. PKI-179 (5-50 mg kg; p.o. once daily for 40 days) inhibits the tumor growth and is well tolerated in nude mice bearing MDA-361 human breast cancer tumors[1].PKI-179 (50 mg kg; p.o.) results in good inhibition of PI3K signaling in nude mice bearing MDA361 tumor xenografts[1].PKI-179 exhibits good oral bioavailability (98% in nude mouse, 46% in rat, 38% in monkey, and 61% in dog) and a high half-life (>60 min) [1].

TBK1 IKKε-IN-4 is a 6-aminopyrazolopyrimidine derivative and a potent, selective TBK1 and IKKε inhibitor with IC50 values of 13 nM and 59 nM, respectively. TBK1 IKKε-IN-4 shows 100- to 1000-fold less activity against other protein kinases including PDK1, PI3K family members and mTOR[1]. TBK1 IKKε-IN-4 (Compound II; 96 hours; A549 andHCC44 cells) treatmentdisplays selective toxicity in TBK1-dependent cancer cell lines (IC50 of ~ 4.2 μM for H441 cells and IC50 of ~0.4 μM for A549 cells)[1].TBK1 IKKε-IN-4 (Compound II; 0-2 μM; 30 minutes; HCC44 cells) treatment inhibits the AKT activity[1].TBK1 IKKε-IN-4 (Compound II) inhibits LPS-induced expression of IFNβ (IC50 =62 nM), and the IFNβ target genes IP10 (IC50 =78 nM) and Mx1 (IC50=20 nM). TBK1 IKKε-IN-4 effectively blocksTLR3-dependent IRF3 nuclear translocation in cells with an IC50 under 100 nM, but does not impair TNFR1-dependent p65 NFκB nuclear translocation with doses as high as 20 μM[1].
