The study aims to develop and characterize selective PI3Kα inhibitors for enhanced treatment of PIK3CA-mutant cancers.
Developed compounds targeting mutant PI3Kα isoforms.
Performed antiproliferative assays in various PI3Kα mutant cell lines.
Evaluated the selectivity of inhibitors in vitro and in vivo.
Compounds showed high selectivity against wild-type PI3Kα, with significant inhibition of AKT phosphorylation.
TY-3659 demonstrated superior antiproliferative activity compared to existing inhibitors.
In in vivo models, compounds significantly inhibited tumor growth and showed good tolerance with no adverse glucose effects.
