Through virtual screening, we identified the lead compound MCL1020, which exhibited modest CHK1 inhibitory activity. Then a series of 5-(pyrimidin-2-ylamino)picolinonitrile derivatives as CHK1 inhibitors were discovered by further rational optimization. One promising molecule, (R)-17, whose potency was one of the best, had an IC50of 0.4 nM with remarkable selectivity (>4300-fold CHK1vs. CHK2). Compound (R)-17effectively inhibited the growth of malignant hematopathy cell lines especially Z-138 (IC50: 0.013μM) and displayed low affinity for hERG (IC50> 40μM). Moreover, (R)-17significantly suppressed the tumor growth in Z-138 cell inoculated xenograft model (20 mg/kg I.V., TGI = 90.29%) as a single agent with body weight unaffected. Taken together, our data demonstrated compound (R)-17could be a promising drug candidate for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.
