    Abstract:
    Over the past decade, first and second generation EGFR inhibitors have significantly improved outcomes for lung cancer patients with activating mutations in EGFR. However, both resistance through a secondary T790M mutation at the gatekeeper residue and dose-limiting toxicities from wild-type (WT) EGFR inhibition ultimately limit the full potential of these therapies to control mutant EGFR-driven tumors and new therapies are urgently needed. Herein, we describe our approach toward the discovery of 47 (EGF816, nazartinib), a novel, covalent mutant-selective EGFR inhibitor with equipotent activity on both oncogenic and T790M-resistant EGFR mutations. Through molecular docking studies we converted a mutant-selective high-throughput screening hit (7) into a number of targeted covalent EGFR inhibitors with equipotent activity across mutants EGFR and good WT-EGFR selectivity. We used an abbreviated in vivo efficacy study for prioritizing compounds with good tolerability and efficacy that ultimately led to the selection of 47 as the clinical candidate.
