The HER family receptor tyrosine kinases are mediators of cell growth, differentiation and survival. The receptor family includes four distinct members, i.e. epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ErbB1, or HER1) HER2 (ErbB2), HER3 (ErbB3) and HER4 (ErbB4). Upon ligand binding the receptors form homo and heterodimers and subsequent activation of the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity leads to receptor auto-phosphorylation and the activation of downstream signaling molecules (Yarden, Y., Sliwkowski, MX. Untangling the ErbB signalling network. Nature Review Mol Cell Biol. 2001 February; 2(2): 127-37). De-regulation of EGFR by overexpression or mutation has been implicated in many types of human cancer including colorectal, pancreatic, gliomas, head and neck and lung cancer, in particular non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and several EGFR targeting agents have been developed over the years (Ciardiello, F., and Tortora, G. (2008). EGFR antagonists in cancer treatment. The New England journal of medicine 358, 1160-1174). Erlotinib (Tarceva®), a reversible inhibitor of the EGFR tyrosine kinase was approved in numerous countries for the treatment of recurrent NSCLC.

An impressive single agent activity of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors is observed in a subset of NSCLC patients whose tumors harbor somatic kinase domain mutations, whereas clinical benefit in wild-type EGFR patients is greatly diminished (Paez, J. et al. (2004). EGFR mutations in lung cancer: correlation with clinical response to gefitinib therapy. Science (New York, N.Y. 304, 1497-1500). The most common somatic mutations of EGFR are exon 19 deletions with delta 746-750 the most prevalent mutation and the exon 21 amino acid substitutions with L858R the most frequent mutation (Sharma SV, Bell DW, Settleman J, Haber DA. Epidermal growth factor receptor mutations in lung cancer. Nat Rev Cancer. 2007 March; 7(3): 169-81).

Treatment resistance arises frequently, often due to the secondary T790M mutation within the ATP site of the receptor. Some developed mutant-selective irreversible inhibitors are highly active against the T790M mutant, but their efficacy can be compromised by acquired mutation of C797S, that is the cysteine residue with which they form a key covalent bond (Thress, K. S. et al. Acquired EGFR C797S mutation mediates resistance to AZD9291 in non-small cell lung cancer harboring EGFR T790M. Nat. Med. 21, 560-562 (2015)). C797S mutation was further reported by Wang to be a major mechanism for resistance to T790M-targeting EGFR inhibitors (Wang et al. EGFR C797S mutation mediates resistance to third-generation inhibitors in T790M-positive non-small cell lung cancer, J Hematol Oncol. 2016; 9: 59). Additional mutations that cause resistance to Osimertinib are described by Yang, for example L718Q. (Yang et al, Investigating Novel Resistance Mechanisms to Third-Generation EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Osimertinib in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients, Clinical Cancer Research, DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-17-2310) Lu et al. (Targeting EGFRL858R/T790M and EGFRL858R/T790M/C797S resistance mutations in NSCLC: Current developments in medicinal chemistry, Med Res Rev 2018; 1-32) report in a review article on Targeting EGFRL858R/T790M and EGFRL858R/T790M/C797S resistance mutations in NSCLC treatment.

As most available EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors target the ATP-site of the kinase, there is a need for new therapeutic agents that work differently, for example through targeting drug-resistant EGFR mutants.

Recent studies suggest that purposefully targeting allosteric sites might lead to mutant-selective inhibitors (Jia et al. Overcoming EGFR(T790M) and EGFR(C797S) resistance with mutant-selective allosteric inhibitoRS, June 2016, Nature 534, 129-132)

There is just a need in the generation of selective molecules that specifically inhibit T790M/L858R, T790M/L858R/C797S, L858R, L858R/C797S containing EGFR mutants useful for the therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment of cancer, in particular T790M and C797S containing EGFR mutants.

Assay Procedures

HTRF Phospho EGFR TMLR Assay (Cellular)

Cell Line and Media

H1975 cell line (CRL-5908; Lot BA70803) was obtained from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, Va., USA). Cells were maintained at 37° C., 5% CO2 in complete Media RPMI 1640 without phenol red containing 0.3 mg/ml glutamine, 100 IU/ml penicillin, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin (Gibco, 15140-122) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Gibco, 10091-148). Compounds were diluted into starving medium RPMI 1640 Media (Gibco, 11835-030) without phenol red containing 0.3 mg/ml glutamine, 100 IU/ml penicillin, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin (Gibco).

Protocol

Cells were cultured for 24 h in a 384-well plate (Greiner Bio-One, Nr. 784-080; 5000 cells/well) using 8 μl of complete medium/well. Then 4 l/well of the 3× compound solution, containing a factor 3 dilution series of the compound or DMSO in starving medium, were added to the cells (final DMSO 0.33%). After 16 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2, 95% rel. humidity cells were lysed by adding to the compound mix 4 l/well of the supplemented lysis buffer (Cis-bio, Phospho-EGFR HTRF kit, 64EG1PEH), followed by incubation for 30 min at room temperature with shaking (400 rpm). Then 4 μl of a mixture of anti-Phospho-EGFR Cryptate and of anti-Phospho-EGFR-d2 antibody solutions prepared in the detection buffer was added. The plates were then incubated for 4 h at room temperature before reading the fluorescence emission at 620 and 665 nm using an Envision reader (Perkin Elmer).

HTRF Phospho EGFR TMLRCS Assay (Cellular) Cell Line and Media

BaF3-TMLRCS cell line were obtained from Crownbio (San Diego, Calif., USA). Cells were maintained at 37° C., 5% CO2 in RPMI ATCC (Gibco 31870)+2 mM Glutamine+0.5 μg/ml Puromycin supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Gibco).

Protocol

Cells are transferred as above to Greiner Bio-One, Nr. 784-08 micro-titerplate at 20000 cells/well in 12.5 μl of growth medium/well after the plates had been pre-filled with 12.5 nl of DMSO solutions of the to be tested compounds (in dose response) or DMSO only. After spinning the plates at 300×g for 30 seconds the cells were incubated for 4 hours at 37 C, 5% CO2, 95% humidity. The cells were lysed by adding to the compound mix 4 l/well of the supplemented lysis buffer (Cis-bio, Phospho-EGFR HTRF kit, 64EG1PEH), followed by incubation for 30 min at room temperature with shaking (400 rpm). The plates were then frozen and stored overnight at −80 C. On the next day and after thawing the plates, 4 μl of a mixture of anti-Phospho-EGFR Cryptate and of anti-Phospho-EGFR-d2 antibody solutions prepared in the supplied detection buffer was added to each well. The lidded plates were then incubated for 4 h at room temperature before reading the fluorescence emission at 616 and 665 nm using an Envision reader (Perkin Elmer). Data was analyzed in similar fashion as above using the normalized ratio of the 665 to 616 signals multiplied by 10000.
