Paragraph 0633-0635, (2021/01/23)
The present disclosure describes novel compounds, or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and their medical uses. Compounds of the disclosure have activity as dual modulators of Janus kinase (JAK), alone, or in combination with one or more of an additional mechanism, including a tyrosine kinase, such as TrkA or Syk, and PDE4, and are useful in the in the treatment or control of inflammation, auto-immune diseases, cancer, and other disorders and indications where modulation of JAK would be desirable. Also described herein are methods of treating inflammation, auto-immune diseases, cancer, and other conditions susceptible to inhibition of JAK and PDE4 by administering a compound herein described.
High-affinity inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase: Antimicrobial and anticancer activities of 7,8-dialkyl-1,3-diaminopyrrolo[3,2-f]quinazolines with small molecular size

A series of 7,8-dialkylpyrrolo[3,2-f]quinazolines were prepared as inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). On the basis of an apparent inverse relationship between compound size and antifungal activity, the compounds were designed to be relatively small and compact. Inhibitor design was aided by a GRID analysis of the three-dimensional structure of Candida albicans DHFR, which suggested that relatively small, branched alkyl groups at the 7- and 8-positions of the pyrroloquinazoline ring system would provide optimal interactions with a hydrophobic region of the protein. The compounds were potent inhibitors of fungal and human DHFR, with K(i) values as low as 7.1 and 0.1 pM, respectively, and were highly active against C. albicans and an array of tumor cell lines. In contrast to known lipophilic inhibitors of DHFR such as trimetrexate and piritrexim, members of this series of pyrroloquinazolines were not susceptible to P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance and also showed significant distribution into lung and brain tissue. The compounds were active in lung and brain tumor models and displayed in vivo activity against Pneumocystis carinii and C. albicans.
