Structure-Based Optimization of Pyrazinamide-Containing Macrocyclic Derivatives as Fms-like Tyrosine Kinase 3 (FLT3) Inhibitors to Overcome Clinical Mutations

Secondary mutations in Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3-tyrosine kinase domain (FLT3-TKD) (e.g., D835Y and F691L) have become a major on-target resistance mechanism of FLT3 inhibitors, which present a significant clinical challenge. To date, no effective drugs have been approved to simultaneously overcome clinical resistance caused by these two mutants. Thus, a series of pyrazinamide macrocyclic compounds were first designed and evaluated to overcome the secondary mutations of FLT3. The representative
